You can't do a paper clip test, but you can do the pedal trick.

Bet you get a crank sensor code

Personally, (if Entwood does not mind) i would drop him a PM, he is in your area. He has software to read codes, and belongs to ABS as gets cheap prices at Vx. Its an easy fix too!

Few beer vouchers his way, and you know the job has been done right!

More than happy to help .. PM's sent .. :)

and I "think" the 2.6 CS is the same as mine ...

SENSOR, CRANKSHAFT REVOLUTIONS Y26SE, X30XE, Y32SE        90540743

If so I have an unused spare we can compare with ...   :)

as for price .. I can't help :(  .. I bought one for the 2.5 and when I changed to the 3.2 I asked Skurrays if they could swap it .. and they did ... without any papwerwork !!!

Yup .. I have a TC ... and it saved Grif a small fortune on oil on his last vist...

on your hint .. checked Tc prices ..

2.6/3.0/3.2            90540743        £53.50        £48.20        £41.47

so a saving of £12 .. :)
