Can you tell us the codes? I can't make out anything from that video on Flickr?

Is the pump a brand new pump? I know it was working before and has started with it but is it still? Voltages OK? Can you hear it working?

What does the car actually do? Is it dead as a dodo? Does it crank/splutter but won't fire?

EDIT: Sorry, I've asked this already and you've already answered

Can you hear the started engage?

Yeh man i'l try get hold of the codes. pump is second hand which is why I thought initially that might be the issue but Shem says its fine apparently. Car turns over fine but thats it really.

already offered to buy a new pump this morning but he said that wasnt the issue.

im not sure on the voltages but thats all I got from him at the moment. i'l try and grab those readings and pop those on as well.

If you don't have any immobiliser messages I'd say it's a fuelling issue.

It's just too coincidental, replaces fuel pump, few days later stops....

Just as a check, compression test? Rules out anything BD Performance could have done? I doubt it's this though tbh, need to see codes.

thats what I thought but that video snip is around what you would expect for average fuel pressure and it is working. Still trying to get a bit more info but im pretty sure everything that BD did is fine, they were very thorough with all their work and checks and cleaning and running in etc they even wanted more days to just keep an eye on it. plus I was driving the car for couple weeks then drove it up to shems without a single issue. Started up everytime and drove faultlessly bar the mapping turbo issue.

Alright lizard, not yet mate. car turns over fine but doesnt fireup but the guy working on it is quite slow which is frustrating. he reported back last night that he has narrowed it down to an ECU issue. Not entirely sure how an ECU would of suddenly cause this, I was thinking of probably a sensor or some ignition but thats just a guess and im not with the car. I will keep this updated defenitly.

not yet man, still ongoing issues. dropped shem a message to have a quick check on the ECM as researching around someone had a similar issue ad that was their culprit.

Shems doing some final checks but looking at this as an ECU failure, maybe its been tampered with too much? being flashed back to standard quite a bit ... I have no idea.

Got another ECU on the way where he will copy over the imobiliser data etc to see if we can get that working with the car.
