It is a good deal, but I just dont need all the options it offers. I just want to check and clear codes. Its just a grocery getter. I have another car to play with.

Cole-let me know how that thing works out!! Who'd you buy it from?

Thanks for heads up on the abs, pson.

My ABS light came on and it turned out to be a worn "arm" attached to the drivers front wheel so it was a mechanical part not an electronic part and cost £20.

I also heard that the sensors on the wheels are very sensitive so if you have recently had wheels/tyres/brakes changed or worked on then it may be worth checking.

good luck

Im confused here, can you explain? sorry.

The car was in an accident. Guy said he was doing 50 and rear ended someone. those bumper absorbers took a lot. I was impressed. Car drives straight though. So perhaps the impact screwed with the sensors? Id like to just reset them and see what happens.

Guy said the front end was tight before the accident, I was fearing the loose control arm deal, but when I drove it the other day, I felt some clanky clanky when I braked. Looks like it has it after all.
