ANYBODY ELSE HAD THESE PROBLEMS

Is it an 02 / 52 reg?
I think about half the London fleets had those problems!
Theres a decent garage / outfit called Coronation Cabs situated just of the A40 in Park Royal, its not a million miles for you, I'm sure they could help you out.
Alternativley click on my www link (below) and ask Captain Cab, he's got a TX2, and knows about its associated problems.
