I'd call BS on that......

Busted external temp sensor screws the TPMS but I really can't see how the wing mirrors would impact the CEL

I can confirm that if the outside temp sensor on the wing mirror fails it will trigger a yellow EML - I know just had that issue - if course he could just have picked an easy fix to explain the light....but wing mirrors can be found on eBay

I had my mirror taken off and had no CEL. Can't see the logic as to why it would be connected to the engine management. There's a totally different ambient air sensor.

Well I believe that this sensor also contributes to the engine management in addition so when it doesn’t work it triggers the light - I am sure a 3rd force will be along soon....but as I said me and my Foxwell had and sorted this issue last month

owning up to a car with variator problem is quite amusing on a car that doesn't have that issue! Your call but what is it worth fully sorted? not much if any more?
Are you saying the dry sump didn't have variator issues?

Hi. This car actually bought me to the forum so welcome 1st of all! Any thoughts on this car? I like the price but worth checking out in the flesh? Can I live with variator rattle for this money or look elsewhere? At what low price is it worth buying at if the sxxx doe hit the fan??. He's looking for £6000 still.

That's because it didnt sell, all details are still there, wants £6k.

By the way I couldnt find a maser that met the spec I wanted, so I bought a cls55 amg as one popped up a few miles away. Then a black maser popped up on ebay that sounded amazingly well looked after, auto, 07 and sold for just shy of 12k! I'm gutted.

So if anyone wants to swap a black Porte for a black cls55 give me a shout lol.
