Had a quick look today (sorn on someone else's drive so not always an opportunity)... Unfortunately the rain was pretty much unrelenting so for the few mins it stopped I tried to look under the gromet. That thing is damned stubborn! Is it even possible to have a thorough look without slicing it...

Yup fraid my 1.8 does that too. And powerless under 2.5k. That's why I drive the diesel now.

Ok This morning I have tried what you said. It actually doesnt read any ohms at all, but we tested the nearside just to be sure we had set the reader up correctly. Nearside read 1500ohms when spinning the wheel. Any idea what it could mean if it reads 0 on offside? Would you call that a...

Hello Hope I am able to get some more info if possible. Yesterday was at this all day...... Checked continuity from the grey plug all the way down to the glove box area. Everything seemed fine. Also took the boot lock motor apart and tested that the motor works. It does. Utterly stumped...

Brilliant amount of info, thank you. Will give it a bash when/if rain stops.

This sound like the job?

Right....done what you said and thought it would be best to video it for you to see for yourself if you don't mind. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pj6fnuF1iOQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player It repeated this over and over. Not sure entirely what was meant by ABS will reset after turning ignition...

Swish nice one! When/if I have the disposable income I shall probably give it a go. I may end up just buying one replacement seat as the driver one crunches, or one day try and find out what part of the current seat has died. I think a combination of exciting heirpin Swiss roads and 18 stone...

I did post a reply, then realised what a stupid question it was! I had misread. I shall try this tomorrow. Thanks mate.
