Person puts phone in back pocket and sits on it. Outcome - shocking If sat on my MBP I'm sure something bad would happen... So I don't!

Oh well that's my argument blown out of the water then... they were so Scientific in their approach weren't they hehehe Honestly, seek a second opinion or get it in writing that if a new TB doesn't fix the issue that you won't be paying for it! Mick

if it's a brand new/virgin UCH yes but they will need the vehicles access code to allow them access to the secure coding area. This is VIN specific and if the vehicle has had a UCH/ECU/Keyfob swap from another vehicle you will come un-stuck as you need the access code for the doner cars VIN...

There are a few things you can turn off to squeeze some more out of the battery... Google is your friend.

Settings > Privacy > Location Services Which ones are set to "Always"? May also be worth killing some unused background Apps that have "While Using" selected to.

When it comes to stats and sensors you really should stick with genuine parts. I personally won't use anything but genuine parts because every time I've used something else it's bitten me in the ass.

They *should* be able to yes. They will need access to some ODBII compliant equipment and an IR thermometer/pyro

Right, in that case I'd want to see a reliable data stream value vs a physical measurement to see if the sensor is lying

Yeah, the CTS data stream is a very important baseline which the ECU uses to determine how the engine will run. It can cause over fuelling and misfires along with some other nasty things on turbocharged vehicles. If it's hitting the half way mark when stood but dropping when driving it's almost...

OS X 10.10 "Yosemite" will indeed be free and it's rumoured to be released toward the end of October or early September. We're currently on Beta 3 and it's pretty damn stable with some nice features. I just wish some of the Mail features would filter thru to iOS as it's a terrible email App

Nope, it's a single sensor now that feeds the ECU which is shared via CAN

So they've got a DF254 out of '120 but no sub-code and are condemning the throttle body? Damn, I wish diagnostics was genuinely that easy! Just gonna leave another one here: That is 100% a wiring fault

I would as it's not a straight forward conversion.

Ask them why they say it's the TB and what tests they have done to prove it?

Don't buy a throttle body!

Just gonna leave this here... It won't be the throttle body

You will run in to problems with the electronics as that control panel is on CAN so you will need to reconfigure it and modify with wiring.

Water pump, coolant circuit, expansion cap, stat faulty... Just a few examples

I'd check its temp readings physically and electronically to rule out an electronic vs mechanical fault.

They've not given us the full compliment of handoff features yet Tom but calls have started working since Beta 3. It works extremely well

That'll be a no then

It's not as fast as a wired wall charger and the charge pads (decent ones) are pretty pricey to. Personally I can't ever see me using it and the same with the IR blaster. It's great for a few minutes but then you're back to using the Sky remote again. Gives the Droids something to claim as a...

So is anyone else here running their 6 with OSX 10.10 Yosemite here and use the new features? Taking calls on the MBP is actually really good. I thought it would be gimmicky at first and make you sound like you're in a tunnel but no. Impressively they have managed to filter out large background...

Well there's only one way to tell and that's to test the lot. I always test my thermostats now before they go in to stock as I've had a few from Renault not open or seal closed correctly. Type-D isn't expensive but it's the customer having to return unhappy I don't like.

Did you check and test the thermostat operation before fitting it?

Yeah that's not right mate, check what's running in background and kill it. I've hammered FB this morning but here's mine so far Notice I'm running Blutooth to!

If the battery usage stats in iOS8 are anything to go by

Is that with a 5 or 6? Facebook seems to be the biggest draw in my battery. I do admit to closing all Apps that I'm not using to which must help.

I will always travel with my USB charge cell though as I've not really used it tethered to my MBP yet.
