I am indeed located in the 'old world', though not the UK. A long time ago I used to be on this forum as "Grey245Polar" but that account seems to have been suspended. Grey refers to the colour of the car, not a grey market.

The 1986 cc B200F is a smaller bore version of the 2316 cc B230F sold in some markets. It is only 5 BHP down on power, but must make do with quite a bit less torque.

I am at a loss, but I have not yet given up.

Now I know that the ECU is supposed to "learn" for the first 10 miles or so after a reset or disconnection of the battery. But I can't really say that I ever noticed anything different.
To those who do notice it, what are the differences in driving experience in those first miles? Does the idle run higher after a reset?
