Okay,
Very much later, about 1,000 limped-along and issue-laden miles more and having pulled together some cash to take it to a different garage, there´s news and it´s more complicated than a simple ICU.
I´m told: 1: ICU not working, 2: sensor connected to it also not working, 3: wiring to the ICU assembly not carrying any current.
The aim was to get a part from a scrap car and replace the lot, however the mechanic says that in a week of looking, he hasn´t found a car with the same engine (I´d actually believe him cos they´re all diesels here), so he´s going to 'see what he can do' tomorrow.
Am rather unhappy obviously - particularly as I want to take the (sometimes near-undriveable) car on a 400-mile run this weekend. He says the assembly new is about €120 so am going to ask him to just get the finger out and spend the money if that´s going to solve this.
Has anyone else had this kind of problem?
