Re: Out for a duck !!!

Yes Martyn, i read of staffing problems too. Yesterday the operators reported that an old tyre had been found wrapped round the prop which in turn had damaged the hull.

Re: Some sheduled maintenance

Obivously illegal Tony as it's linked to lower emissions and VED. I'm not at all sure it can be done, re-set the fault code sure but it will come back. The DAF diagnostic computer DAVIE certainly can't do it, MANCATs i haven't tried as we haven't seen any here with ad-blue yet.
