Still unclear whether it's a ECU or a T4 issue

Mine didn't have any problem at MGOC when I wanted some options enabled.

Might be operator error or wrong software.

I remember working on one with my journeyman and we had mega problems with what was at the time a month old car, gateway ecu was a major problem from what I can remember.

I reckon this month old ZT 260 spent more time with us than him however the owner loved it

All of the above apply

Every V8 is different, but every one is a prototype, and MGR didn't pay Omitec to write the software for T4.

So you'd be better off at a Ford dealer

The operator error was agreeing to plug T4 in where it wasn't welcome

That'll teach you to put it where you like it

Indeed I am, most the engine spares come from them...............
Bodyparts are easily obtained in the UK though

They are prototypes! the level of finish leaves a lot to be desired (Angle grinder through front subframe - no dressing of the edges, or blanking of the open ends!!)

Im sure each one is different, mine just doesn;t like me im sure, brought her back to life and she doesn't want to play!
