U2000:

Short Description
"Audio Rear Control Unit is Not Responding"

U1107:

Short Description
"SCP (J1850) Invalid or Missing Data for Legislated Diagnostics"

These come from the fault codes site where you can find more info:

Good luck :-D

Best not to use 'resources' such as those Mick - they're totally incorrect....

'U' codes are communications faults on the data networks and are generic in that CAN codes can apply to multiple systems. They usually have another 2 elements to the code at the end to distinguish further detail, so I suggest you do not spend time on what could be a red herring.

U2000 can apply to ESP, Parking Brake, Under Inflation Detection, Engine ECU etc, etc., but you get my meaning. The same for U1107.

We need the last 2 digits of the fault code or it is meaningless to be honest.... but appreciate the well-meant intention to help the OP out. :)

I was expecting the full 'U' codes that you previously posted... do you not have them?

As for the new faults:

Whilst you have this fault (B1818 1C), make sure you check the engine oil manually.

Hi Mark the codes on the original post didn't the last two numbers ( thats all i got from the garages report) so im insure of what they would be. The second set of codes came up afterwards once the original were deleted and never came back on. Thanks for your help Mark really appreciate it.
