Well I did post a topic on this but the car decided to do it again.....so I took it into Synter Sunningdale as the guys there have always been good.
It turned out I needed some kind of module which heats the glow plugs up as that was faulty. However in the same breath he also said that they had rounded off the bolts on the EGR valve and broken my Oil cooler (the small bracket) lol. The oil cooler is on back order so that means i'll now have to wait another week to get the car back. But I am picking up a manual 116 from them tomorrow lol!
I also got the side view camera replaced under warrenty and the passanger door handles CAS wasnt working thats another 6 weeks for the handle !!. I'm not sure why a handle takes 6 weeks to come through...there reply was becuase it has to be painted lol!
Anyway i'll wax up the one series before I give it back to them....i'll resist modding it!
I dont really mind as I dont use th ecar much and its nice to know that the service chap I use keeps me informed and doesnt mind the fact that the car i smodded so any new parts I can get under warrenty is always good...I wonder if their break anything else lol!
