Mot it then decide I'm tempted to say sell if it all works ?
Yeah that’s my thoughts. I’ll plug it into MES see what that says and for the sake of £26 I guess it’s worth it. Would be a very cheap first car for someone if I can get it through the MoT without spending any money on it. With that sort of mileage though, it could be a ticking time bomb of bits waiting to fail.
Looked at the MoT history and it hasn’t failed on much in the past.
Quick look on Autotrader has only 4 cars at under £2000 so if its OK sell for £1400(say) and its a quick small profit you might get more?
Its done 15k a year, above average, if that was on the motorway you're fine if its been all round town which is possible suspension and clutch? Think Typecastboy drives a 500x?
No errors messages showing up on the screen of the car on via mes only thing I could think of is electrical fault either wiring or cluster
Does it come on as you as your start the engine or when you turn the key?
It’s on solid when the ignition is on as the other warning lights as normal but when you start the engine it comes on straight away and just flashes on and off.
Is it possible that there is something that MES is not detecting?
Did a full diagnostic with MES on every system. There were a few errors which cleared and didn’t co me back. But . . . I have the engine light flashing when the engine is running. No messages on the dash and nothing g in MES? I’m confused. Anyone got any ideas why that could be?View attachment 195272
Flashing EML is often a warning the cat's fubar.
Were any of these errors related to a misfire?
