Hi, I didn't used the garage in the end as they had already diagnosed the fault for the previous owner, who did. not tell me...
When I visited the garage they just told me what they had tried for the previous owner, I didn't think to ask about fault.code reading at the time, I was a little bit in shock.

Ah so when you said they've seen this before they'd actually seen your E50 before with the previous owner. I didn't pick up on that when you first posted.

Absolutely, hence my shock at discovering the bloke who sold it had been advised to spares and repairs it.
So yeah, they had actually diagnosed the fuel pump on my vehicle for the previous owner. But, they made no me tion of the fault codes when I spoke to them.

I've seen on here that you can make the dashboard flash to get the codes, that could be something worthwhile trying being that its free and might give you a clearer picture on the problem. Have a search or hopefully someone will chip in with instructions on how to do it.

You have a case for small claims court there.
 
MOT passed first time this morning with only expected advisories on the tyres. Happy Christmas to me. Got to be my first time spending more on petrol than getting through an MOT. Full tank of 99 to celebrate, of course.
 
Just travelled from Somerset to Lincoln no problems but spray from road made my G30 Rider very dirty. Decided to wash the crap off the windows and when I was wiping the rear door, two of the Elgrand letters fell off. The rest came off with little effort. Not sure if it's due to the cold. But you may want to check yours are still attached properly. I was lucky and didn't lose any.
