swamper, Not sure if you have had any luck with this wayne, below are some diagrams that will help you test the Cruise control switch. With the switch disconnected you should be able to test for continuity in the following places.

If that's the one you posted on Facebook with you swearing like a trooper, you can post it on this thread! Made me laugh watching it, and it's only several hundred uses of the F word

 

[swamper]

not for the kids....you have been warned..!!!

 

[badman gee]

M5 v hairdresser eh!

 

[swamper]

do i look like an hairdresser...

 

[badman gee]

Nope! Sorry Wayne couldn't resist!

It's all about the start.

Low tyre pressure is the key.

I've looked on fastest laps and compared the two.

The z3m edges it overall!

 

[swamper]

you getting in with me next time...we can have a mix of regional swearing

if it was dryer it would have been a lot closer..... but it was an M5..so no shame in that

 

[badman gee]

The z3m is the same spec to a quarter of a mile!

 

[swamper]

really.....must try harder.....but without traction control it really starts to spin up...maybe some semi slicks on next time

 

[swamper]

oops DP

Hey Wayne, If your going to have BMG in your car when you make the next run, make sure he's got his diaper on.
