Fair play. It's just that a Google search usually throws up variations that I can't distinguish between. I'm learning about mechanics but I still need a bit of hand-holding to make sure I don't do something stupid.

Any updates buddy ?

Followed your advice:

Replaced the boost pressure sensor...

Car fired up immediately (always a relief) but haven't taken it for a run yet...

Won't know if it's worked until I stop at a motorway service station, lol...

Yeah, I'm pretty happy with my £30 bulbs; just need to get to a car park to tweak the adjustments...
