I just changed all 4 last week. Im thinking the code could be from when coil 3 was going, eml light was flashing and the car was misfiring.

I'll give the N249 a look tomorrow.

Nope my SAI is still there, not too worried about that fault code, always seem to have it and it always comes back. Will just have to rip out the SAI system one day

Yeh i didnt clear the fault codes after i replaced coilpack number 3 and then the rest, so it must be that fault code for the misfire. SAI fault i will just leave or rip out one day when it annoys me enough.

FINALLY managed to track down the right size OZ centre caps from a place on Ebay. Previously i had only had my OZ Supperleggera's not even a week before some cheap skate pikey stole them from a multi-story car park and i just never got round to replacing them, until now.

I went for the red writing with the carbon fibre style back ground. Look very nice if i do say so myself :)

Very happy with how they look on the car and go with the red colour of the car. I give them a month before they get nicked again!

Going to have to wait till after Xmas:( Few little bits i want to get done before the mapping in January, going to buy some uprated engine mounts for piece of mind, and going to get the Forge silicon 10piece host kit to replace the crusty old ones, and it will bring abit more colour to my bay.

But seriously its going to be agony seeing the turbo in my room knowing i cant fit it for a month or two.....awwwww the pain!

Well, what can i say?! What happened to my old ko3? This looks brand new and soooo clean. Still looks like a nomral small little ko3 unit, but its whats going on in the inside that counts, KO4 internals. Its come with an uprated actuator aswell for good measure!

Its going to be pure torture waiting till after the new year to get it fitted and mapped, but ive be patient so far so another month wont hurt.

Going to get a Forge 10piece hose kit for good measure and money permitting some uprated engine mounts!

Thanks for looking
