and "misfunctioning solenoid that measures the exhaust fumes"
A solenoid is an actuator , not a sensor. If that was their exact words then they don't know what they are talking about.

Please could someone tell me why baby seat manufactures don't list car models going back to 1998 how do you choose the car seat?
Because they don't have test data, and no car apart from possibly volvo had ISOfix.
A basic Britax or similar seat should fit any car ( which is a bonus if you need to put it in a family/friends car ) Don't get sucked into the Designer brands.

The graco also came with a base to leave in the car which made the transfer easier.
Sorry @twin--turbo the solenoid was me trying to be smart (they didnt tell me what it did just the they replaced it as the error code came from the emission unit, i put 2 and 2 together to make 5)..Quote:

P.S It's a 53 plate Mondeo ST with fsh and 43k on the clock so shouldn't be having any major issues
I've seen lots of electrical faults get posted this past month on the Pug forum I frequent, just about all of them have been battery related, coinciding with the colder damp weather.
It might only have 43k and FSH but it's still almost ten years old and parts wear by age as well as mileage.Quote:

@least you have a Car. :)
No it's the ST220, 3ltr petrol. It's got no problems starting and none of the electrics are showing signs of the battery being low will have to see what the mechanics say but I think something else might be at play.Quote:

NVM (EEPROM) level (Er----) - this (e.g. Er0206) is often mistakenly assumed to be an error code!
My TDCI won't even spit the codes usualy as I have the Twin ECU....
Getting sold anyway now that I have a Proper engine facing the right way :)
