Next week is looking fairly quiet at the moment, but I’ve been in this game a looong time. A bank holiday weekend like this is usually a guarantee of next week being insanely busy. Don’t ring Monday, I’ll probably have stopped picking it up by 9am. Give me a shout Tuesday, we’ll squeeze you in at your convenience

Will give you a call Tuesday Txs for help

Figgy turned up. Bought nice biscuits too! Thanks Chris!
Straight away looked like a soft top ECU problem. Stored fault code for module failure. We ran a few checks for correct operation of the various limit switches, and they all performed as they should. It’s coming back to remove the large plate in the boot that covers the pump and ECU, and then I can perform some final checks, but I’m already 99% certain it needs a replacement control module.

Great service so nice when you meet a real engineer unfortunately so few left and a real gent, see you when the boot is stripped

 

[Figgy]

Boot stripped looking at fluid reservoir seems to be empty is there a marker?

 

[Uncle Benz]

Hmm. Should be at least half full

 

[Figgy]

Hi there let me no one I can come see you again and when you are free I finish at 3 all next week would also like to book the ac as well

Do have a good look, see if it’s oily anywhere. Lift out the back seat bum rest and check underneath

 

[Figgy]

Will do but nothing in boot and removed rear seat to repair and no fluid there, if ok I would like you to have a look again before I start ordering parts and honest may be a lovely under paid nhs porter but more than willing to pay for your time

 

[Figgy]

Any chance I can drop in tomorrow?

Usually leak at the rear struts in the pockets next to the rear windows. It pools in there for aages.

I have a spare roof module if needed.

I’m pretty sure the module is fubar, but it probably has a leak too. With luck looking at it Wednesday, but I have a long running family crisis ongoing that has already cost me most of my hair and slightly more of my sanity…
