Fellow Members In The High Wycombe/Aylesbury Area

Post by brmartyn »

Hi all (again!)

I'm sure most of you would have seen my last post regarding the ABS light staying on in my Xantia Exclusive :cry: :cry:

I'm wondering if they are any other members close to me in the High Wycombe/Aylesbury area who are a bit more of an expert when it comes to Xantia's than I am who wouldn't mind getting their hands dirty on mine sometime soon?

Cheers guys

Brady,

I know it's a bit of a trek but you're welcome any time, even in the evenings, to come over my way for a Lexia session and a bit of ABS sensor tuition...

I'm exceedingly busy this week but a quick hour can be found to run a diag. session...

Thank you very much Jim that's much appreciated :D

I would love to pop up your way but unfortunately cash is a little tight this month plus work I don't fancy trying to get up to Newport Pagnell during the evening rush hour!

Thanks Jim :)

Indeed, I know what you mean Brady. During rush hour we're like prisoners in our own town here :twisted: You only travel in rush-hour around here if your life depends upon it. Trying to get into Milton Keynes from here is mental as we have to cross the main road to the M1 and it is jammed with demonic commuters who love to work in MK but refuse to live here :twisted: A constant flow of fast traffic driven by crazed city-types in one direction effectively stops the roundabouts working.

Their pay must be good to endure the gridlock and rally-style driving day in, day out. It would do for me :twisted:

No fun at all....

Xac, you might disagree with me here but honestly, its dreadful. if I do have to venture out it's gearbox in sport mode and go for it. Not a pleasure.

They disrupt my rally course.
It's most inconsiderate of them if you ask me.

It is :twisted: They should have consideration for the poor folk of Newport Pagnell....

Sounds good to me DickieG. I'm going to test the ABS ECU tomorrow with a multimeter so I'll let you know how I get on
