with a multi plug attatched which has about 6 wires in it the motor is
secured by 2 small scews probably 20 torx sometimes removing an cleaning
carbon deposits can sort problems out with them after that try initialising
ecu by disconnecting battery for 10 minutes put back on and start engine
turn on rear heated screen and headlights leave to idle until fan comes in
then drive for 45 minutes driving using different styles high revving etc
