It ilia the temic I was planning on removing, checking joints and connections and putting it back.

Is this a bad idea?
All I’m saying, “if it’s not broken, don’t fix it” :!:

Re: Immobiliser

Yep ;)

You may be able to get in there with a small grinder. But remember to use a fire blanket, to protect the carpet etc
This shield, hides the ECU first, the black immobiliser is behind that

Don’t remove it if it’s the Temic system

Re: Burnt oil smell

Pull the plug leads (one at a time :idea:)
& see if you have any oil in the plug wells.
If so, dry it out.
It can short out & fry the dizzy :o

Re: Burnt oil smell

The IM has to come of, to remove the rear cam cover. Don’t forget to use gasket sealer, & don’t tighten down too much, follow the spec. The front cam cover is more straightforward Kit So do i gather it's worth doing the front one at the same time ? Yes, oil leak on to the alternator, & F**k’s it Kit
