Ahhh well, that's a shame,
I own and run an Independent Garage specialising in Dealer Level Diagnostics and Repairs, in particular Mercedes.
I am also starting to do EEPROMMING techniques with success, I could have brought a wealth of info to the party over here.
Regarding the V8 Conversion I have cracked the DAS Immo Issues, custom EGS Coding etc, I have driven my (currently V6) Car on a V8 ECU as well as it's own, I just have one glitch I wanted to resolve before doing the nuts and bolts over a long weekend but hey ho, if someone can't be bothered to activate my account I'll not be bothered to contribute !!
And before anyone jumps on me I am aware of time differences, moderators have full time jobs too etc, I have also repeatedly hit the resend activation EMail, double checked my EMail address is correct, and every folder on my EMail account !!
So no dice no play
