  the engine the service light comes on and stays on.If I turn the engine off and restart it disappears. I had the car serviced only last September, so it isn't in need of a service. I'm told it could be because I have changed the ECU ? Any suggestions or help will be greatly appreciated

• Vauxhall Vectra C - Battery Drain 26 Jan 2011 (Forum)
  my multimeter in  series with the battery earth cable, doors locked, waited for the ecu to close down, and got a read of 0.2 on the 10A setting. Am I right in thinking this current draw is too high? I read somewhere to expect 0.05 maximum, otherwise it might be a diode fault in the alternator?

• Peugeot 206 hatchback (1998 - 2006) - 01 2.0 HDI remap to 150bhp safe? 8 Jun 2009 (Forum)
  I have had my 206 ECU remapped to 120bhp by someone. When he remapped it, he said it could've been done to 150bhp, but it would've wrecked the clutch and I would have had repair bills every week. However, after speaking to a Peugeot mechanic today, he said it wouldnt be a problem as he has seen one

  I am repairing/rebuilding an engine for a friend which has ingested a metal swirl flap. I was about to check the piston/valve clearances on a dry build when something occurred to me. The crankshaft has a position sensor but I can't see one for the camshaft. How does the ecu know that it should
