Fitted the new ecu and all is now very well! Warning light gone and car is much more stable & settled at motorway speeds. Now very happy.

i can’t imagine why you would choose Monza over Blenheim ?

Will do Tony. Are you at the Blemheim Palace event on 5th Sept?

Update: Been to Autoshield and first thing I learnt is the fault system doesn’t store error codes for suspension issues, the warning light has to be on. Once we overcame this, no errors showing and further investigation resulted in a ‘Equipment not found’ message. The guys suggested replacing the ECU as a first step so I’ve ordered a used one to try. Fortunately the ECU is conveniently located on the lefthand side of the boot, just above the CD changer and is plug& play. I’ve unplugged the ECU and the warning light disappeared which is a little strange in itself. Will see what result I get when the ‘new’ ECU arrives.

Thanks  Tony, I have used Autoshield but lost a bit of confidence in them as they weee trying to tell me I needed new discs all round 2 weeks after I’d passed the MOT with flying colours. I checked them myself and they are fine but I might just need to manage them a little better. Clutch will be fine, they fitted a new one only 12 months ago. I’ll go with them and see what they say.

Hi Tony,

I’m in Manchester but I’m grateful for your kind offer. I’ve been encouraged to invest in a reader; is the fox pro the best for Maserati? I hope you have a great trip to Spa.

Thanks Tony, further research suggests it needs to be a Maserati dealer level scan, I’ve tried generic scanners but they can’t read sufficient detail. Is that your experience as well?

[Peter Thorpe]

Sorry Maurice & Tony, I hadn’t checked in on this thread. Wasn’t ignoring you! I will checkout Abacus and let you know how I get on.
