I'd prefer a driveshaft to what mines done... Failing the output voltage regulator in the powertrain control module (runs the engine sensors basically). Got a wrecker part to replace it, which should be a fairly simple process to code the new unit into the chassis/ecu/pats systems (pats being antitheft crap). Alas, the new $12K scan tool requires internet to confirm the identity and ensure nothing dodgy is going on with the immobiliser recode. Good in theory, except where I am 6km out of Tauranga we don't have good enough internet coverage/data to convince the scan tool's website all is cosher. Gotta wait for another guy to get some time to come up and do the recode of the security system, with his older non-data gear. Once thats done and the new module have the right chassis number in it and the key fobs are recoded then the sparky can check everything else out and redo the injector calibration offset codes etc etc. FFS what a drama! Gimme a simple driveshaft any day.
