@Steven Bostock lol I'm the newbie about here. Everyone gave me things to check and they were all solid then me being me poking about the very badly painted calipers I found 2 very loose brake pads. Found out today they had the retaining clips on the back but the clips had been pressed together so they were just wobbling about in the caliper.
Shoddy work yet again.
But
All sorted now and I'm not gonna lie I love the car even more now the rattle is gone haha

Good for you mate and well done getting it sorted your self :thumbsup:
I've just been faffing around on mine,it has a creaky/squeaky annoying clutch pedal,took off the lower trim panels to reveal the pedal pivot/spring etc,gave it a spray with some oil and cured the problem :D
Might try that on this wining noise i get on fast corners....don't think the wife would appreciate being sprayed with WD40 though :ymdevil:

I think it's for the power soft top switch. @zedonist will likely know because if my memory serves he is going to fit a power roof conversion on his car.

One is for the power roof switch (purple) the other is for the heated rear windscreen switch (white) :)

P.S. did you get your ABS/ASC lights sorted?

Cheers guys
@Brian H I haven't I'm afraid the guy who sold it to me is apparently on holiday and the other salesman won't deal with his customers.

OK, if you get nowhere with them let me know, I'm not a million miles away from you, have access to a code reader so can maybe sort something out.
