  1. Of course, I’m as straight as they come
  2. Ista D is my go to for BMW’s it works wonders and tells you a lot more than snap on what cable are you using and have you changed your connection settings?
  3. Hahahah to be honest I’ve had one previously stolen recovered and brought a cat B, took everything out of the cat B and put it in the straight one- no cat Bs available right now lol it’s a 2017 5.0 supercharged Any clue what module if any would stop power to the car?
  4. Connect it to vcds/ OBD eleven
  5. Hi there guys was just wondering if any JLR specialists could help me with this one we’ve got a car come into us that’s been written off due to lads taking it on a protected beach and getting stuck in the sand and then causing water damage now the car has no ignition so I was wondering is there a way to connect a Doip to pathfinder and forcing ignition on or allow fault code reading. We’ve brought a new bcm and now we just need to program it in somehow with no ignition
  6. Why not send it to the critical worker department I got 4 accepted processed, sent out and received all within a week which I was shocked on considering I sent one back Back in March with no reply
  7. There was this site called car.kiev.info but I believe they’re in a lawsuit with bmw but there’s loads out there just type in Bmw vin decoder on google
  8. Thanks mate but after I bled the brakes it fixed the problem well it has so far....
  9. Yeah we use the doip VCI great bit of kit im going to go and try a brake bleed again now that the epb is calibrated and see if that does anything
  10. Can’t remember the code exactly but there is one for the fuel filler cap having a short circuit due to it being broken but that can’t possibly engage epb can it?
  11. Hi there lads, Was wondering if someone who was clued up on RANGE ROVERS/JAGUARS I've got a Range Rover Sport L494 P400E thats come in to us for the parking brake randomly engaging when pulling out at a junction or setting off from a traffic light, it will engage and then disengage quickly causing a jolt ive used Pathfinder to do a EPB Calibration and I thought that fixed it but the customer has come back to say the problem is still there anyone come across this before
  12. Yeah mate I’ll go to garage tomorrow and have a look on my laptop but one thing you need to do is write oldest service first and then the new one, so if it’s only had one previous service done before you’ll be alright but if it has a few services you’ll have to wipe them and then put in the services from oldest to newest (5 minute job)
  13. No it’s a different program that I have on my laptop easy stuff mileage number of things service what serviced and boom it’s done
  14. You’d think that with COVID 19 and businesses not operating at full capacity the risk would be Lower for claims so it would be cheaper but alas it’s not tbh mate they were one of my options but wanted pictures of the inside of my premises by that time I already had something sorted with premier but kudos to them for still delivering big thanks to especially Declan and josh too
  15. To write service history to the idrive isn’t hard at all tbh all you need is a £10 Enet cable and the ability to convert from KM to miles only downside is when it goes in for a software update it gets deleted
  16. Update: renewing through Premier insurance in Winsford, big thumbs up to Declan & Josh that sorted everything out for me. Would recommend these lot if you’re looking for a decent quote p.s they did better the renewal price I was originally quoted
  17. Wasn’t given the option when I called up but I’ll give global a bell tomorrow. Premier were decent as a broker, they always did manage to get me a good price even on a personal policy on one of my high value cars, whilst they ask other insurers I’m just looking around and see if anyone can beat the current quote
  18. Ashley was my first choice after premier but because he’s the one who got me my policy last year and he’s only moved to UK global in the last 6 months I can’t use him (as he can’t speak to his previous clients for 12 months). He is very good at what he does though im trying to find a way I can use him though
  19. Well from Ageas they’ve quoted me 5.5k
  20. Just waiting on a quote from Aston Lark and I can’t use Ashley as I was one of his customers at Premier but I definitely do recommend him is there anyone else you guys would recommend just got off the phone with towergate so waiting on a quote with them too think insurance have quoted me 3k+ than my current insurance is so that’s a no no
  21. Hi there guys I'm due a renewal on 20th of this month my current insurer has just quoted me £1k more which is way too much for me on monthly payments who would you guys recommend as a good broker, I'm currently with Premier Insurance in Winsford thanks lads
  22. Hi guys I’ve been a motor trade for about 10 years with 8 years ncb and am now looking to get into the rental market. Is there anyone that you guys can recommend to provide self drive hire insurance to a new venture thanks

  24. Just has a look over the policy and he’s put down the wage roll £0 so I don’t think it’ll be an issue
  25. When I am doing errands I like to have mates in the car so it isn’t as boring, not trying to use a motor trade policy on SDP as I have taken out a separate policy
