Ahh - DME relay, the one-size-fits-all answer to no-start and no-run.

WTF, I replaced the DME relay, and still have problems! (As explained in the Technical Forum thread.)

Always check coolant level first.........That's usually the problem.....

If that don't do it, ignore John Walker's advise and read the next 20 silly posts........
