...is he ever wrong? :P

Never. :D

For the record and those who never read about my other problems I'll quickly divulge all, but I suspect Ross saw this happening unlike me. The EGR pipe from the inlet manifold area to the exhaust manifold was left attached to the exhaust manifold, and obviously (to Ross, not me ;)) it vibrates, so it was vibrating the F*** out of the EGR pipe, and in the end it simply started to shake loose at the flexi bit of it, and eventually (on the A38 going to my mate's to investigate further) it fell off.... yes - an engine component FELL OFF my car at speed on the motorway. :rofl::rofl: No good for Skoda's reputation eh? ;)

Fix was easy enough - undo EGR at manifold, grind off pipe, weld on blanking plate and re-attach (plus clearing fault codes) - working fine now.

Nice one :thumbup:

Well done, LummoX!

Jasons car actually run
