Nico,
I still believe my original stance that neither LE or L3 offer error codes
of any form; although there is a small possibility (I am not 100% sure in
all honesty) that L3 may offer limited 'blink code' information as you are
familiar with on ML4.1, I am trying to positively answer this question for
my own interest. Incidentally, 4.1 offers serial datastream error code
information from the diagnostic connector as well as 'blink code'. As far as
the 1.6 gsi is concerned, I think that all 1.6 engines are fitted with
Multec management (as opposed to Motronic), this is certainly the case in
Europe, Multec supports both blink code and serial datastream error codes.
What age is the 1.6?
