Hi all

I purchased an Arnage Red Label, which had been laid up for some time.

I actually drove from the UK to France to collect the car (Its a UK RHD car, but had been exported when the owners moved, yet was not registered abroad).

Armed with a boot-full of tools and 2 x New batteries, after some tinkering - which included chasing down and temporarily repairing a charge-cooler fluid leak, I was able to comfortably drive the 757 km home in total comfort and without a hitch!!!

This was back in March.

I've since done a few jobs, but I'm hoping a member in Essex or the surrounding area may have a Bentley Omitec diagnostic machine (that I could either buy if they wanted to sell, or even perhaps use). I'd really like to plug the car in and check for any codes as am working a little blind without one.

My car is the crossover OBD1 car which has the OBD2-type connection.

Many thanks,

Gallen.

Thank you.

Typically, one of the jobs is that I need to re-sync both my original key fobs - neither work with only the red light coming on (on the fobs) with the button presses, but are do nothing!

Mine's a 2001 6.75 which I believe is the cross-over OBD1 vehicle (with the OBD2 shaped connector).
