    it is possible that the device could be over boosting the engine and it will limit to prevent damage. Depends how it works. Purely increasing fuel pressure may not be detectable but if it generates more boost to turbo then it may limit the engine...

    The holders go open circuit on the rear lamps. If a new bulb doesn't fix it and you feel adventurous, swap the bulb holder from the other side and then you will know without any test equipment.

    Usually change seal when you change driveshaft as the lip goes hard and extraction of the shaft can damage it. Cheap to do while shaft is out. Don't tell us they left a leaky seal fitted with a new shaft !!??

    My 2003 1.8 Petrol has an EML. It has shown at times. Not with emission problems though and I am pretty sure it doesn't power on at key turning time. Lat time it showed it was a coil pack fault which is not fitted on early models.
