Hi.
Thought I'd introduce myself. Just bought a 6 MPS so I have a nice sized family car which is still a laugh to drive. My other half is in a delivery room at the moment fulfilling the family part of that statement so I should have my first child in a few hours too :-D

It looms like it may have the dreaded teves mk60 fault but the car is going back to the dealer to be looked at in the week.

Already read up a lot on this forum so thanks to all who participate, and I managed to get a good insurance deal through Chris Knott.

Thank you all for what seems like a very pleasant forum. I hope to be able to contribute if I can. I'll get some pictures up soon and I hope the previous owner was a member.

I thought the teves problem was associated with the 3. Not heard of it on the 6.

That may be some very good news for me then. I really hope that is the case.
My traction control light is on constantly. Won't really know much more about it until we get the code reader on there and the dealer I bought it off has agreed to do that. I didn't want to start looking myself as I don't want to void any protection I have from the dealer.

Thank you all for the congratulations. Still in the delivery suite waiting for her to come out.

Thank you all for being so welcoming. We had a 7.2lbs baby at 22:50 4th May. Let see if she likes the 6.

DJJUT, I may require your etune services soon. I'll pop a PM over to you.
