Hi all, Thank you for all the replies. I took it in to get the battery checked as its still under warranty and there's nothing wrong with the battery (and the alternator is producing the correct current) Issue seems to be, with the freezing weather recently, there was a build up of moisture in the area below the battery in the boot. Mechanic says he thinks the charge coming from the alternator is not all reaching the battery. There is a control unit next to the battery he says he thinks is wet/damp. He's going to take it all out tomorrow and report back. I have put towels and paper towels down there to absorb as much as possible overnight. I let you all know what we find tomorrow -

Hi Daryl Welcome to the Forum First are you sure the Fuel Pump is running in the tank? The system normally self bleeds. You could try releasing air at the fuel rail pressure test schrader valve. Make sure you have plenty of Rag/Paper Towel there as it doesn't take much fuel to make a big mess everywhere. Either take out the schrader valve or depress the nipple while an assistant cycles the ignition for 30 secs or so. I have also heard of attaching a vacuum pump to number 1 injector fuel feed and pulling fuel through into the fuel rail that way, never tried that myself but worth a go. Good Luck Dave -

If you can't answer your own question, then I know it wasn't your idea to switch that solenoid with a known good one. You seriously have to be kidding.. so you switched a bad solenoid with a good one and put the bad one where that one came from. And your issue switched up to reflect issues from that same bad solenoid, but now causing errors where the good solenoid came from and no issues where you originally had issues. The whole point of diagnosing a part by swapping it with a known good one is because of the issue follows the bad part... Then the part is no good and you know to replace it. Your mechanic didn't mention this? You had to come ask on a forum? You even kind of answered your own question but to completely answer it, the new code, and the new symptoms you're getting mean that solenoid that you swapped out to test if it was bad, IS BAD. Replace it. Wtf
