I recently took my 2010 TDV8 to the local dealer, for them to take a look at a number of 'electronic issues', plus, what I thought may have been warped discs, as the steering wheel was starting to jig ... |

Getting closer indeed.
Bodsy on here might be able to help, isn't not darn sarf though (shropshire). There may be others here who can provide a similar service and I don't know of any independents ... |

I think a solution to the TPMS problem may be getting closer - reply from BBS is below:
The option to set this as 'not fitted' is available in the CCF and can be set using our Faultmate systems.
