Glad yours is sorted Pete.

VX charge extortionate prices, I agree. My VX stealer (who I have since refused to go back to)  wanted £105.75 an hour (plus VAT no doubt) to investigate my alarm system further.

Also sorry to hijack this thread (hope you don't mind Pete) but after the initial tech II check VX gave me two codes for why my alarm was not sounding at all - not even the weedy one - but indicator lights do flash ok. Codes were TC 125 "horn open circuit" & TC 121 "no response of alarm siren" (I could have told them that!!).

Can anyone confirm what these codes mean - is it that the power sounder batteries have gone west?

Thanks

Mark

The siren unit seems to be completely sealed - probably has to be if it sits in direct line of water through scuttle - I have seen others talk of changing the batteries but didn't fancy this option all things considered.

I shouldn't complain this is the first bill in almost 12 months but I have cam belt, service and most likely tyres coming up again.

Last month the dual mass flywheel on the new (Sept 07) Signum crashed - but was fixed under warranty - this is another worrying weak spot for the future and at VX prices is around £1400 with clutch. Not sure how they arrive at these prices.

DMF cannot handle the torque on the diesel apparently - the new fit apparenetly fixes the issue (maybe design change) - but what about the punters who get beyond a ceratin age or mileage (even in warranty) where clutch wear comes into the equation. VX took photos of my dmf and I think were contemplating customer abuse of clutch until they realised I had reported problems with it back in Jan (smelling) and fotunately we moved on.

  No Problem Mark,

       As for the codes you give i can't find anything in the Tech. section showing codes starting with TC, sorry, maybe someone else will know :).

   Good luck,
                 Pete :y.
