All the 1s that was there before, crank shaft, cam shaft, lambada, oil sensor, and speed sensor, but they have since been changed  :smiley:

immo2 takes 5 mins to code in, immo3 is a bit more involved as you have to code a few more bits. £180 is a bit much though especially when the instructions are listed on the Ross-Tech website lol

I dunno if your ecu is broken, were your old codes cleared after you had the parts replaced?
