The Shoulder of Mutton in Osmaston is cheap and cheerful, lovely setting too.

Come straight to ours at about 11ish and we can take it from there, or later, whatever suits

A Few small glitches,like the 2 back wheels are set at different ride heights ones 60mm from top of wheel arch the other about 10mm,EFI warning every time i start her up.
Other than that the car is superb,far better than when it was new,just not sure if i should be driving it with the EFI warning,but it was like it when i left the factory yesterday,any opinions anyone.......

If you cancel the warning does it stay off? I think if its persistent then maybe something is amiss, otherwise perhaps the usual gremlins.

I normally get an oil pressure sensor warning when I start it up but factory checked it and said there was nothing wrong, now I just ignore it.

It doesn't come back on if i cancel it,usual gremlins is my opinion also(hopefully),running in is not to bad as i've been told 5500 max revs.
See you tomorrow

Rob

My Tamora has had the EFI warning come on from each start since I picked it up four weeks ago (also get the oil pressure warning momentarily)

Castle checked it out and found no fault with the EFI and believe it is a faulty ribbon cable - presuambly feeding the speedo assembly. They are going to sort it on the first service.

Therefore as long as it clears and doesn't come back when driving I should think it will be OK

HTH
