Intermittent VR ...

I used to fit alarms and stuff. I would expect the immobiliser to cut the fuel pump and the starter motor. The normal place to get these would be under the steering column for the starter. The fat red/black is the wire, you'll probably find it's got some black wires connected to it and these will run off to the immobiliser, wherever it is. From there you'll be able to hunt down the fuel pump cut. I used to do this in the drivers side sill. The wire is yellow and red IIRC.

It sounds to me like you have a relay problem.

That might explain why the low steering column trim isn't properly in-place, I'll definately have a look at that in the next few days.

The humming noise is your auxillary water pump by the sounds mate and they are meant to run after shut down.

thanks for that I was worried for a minute about that, its completely different to the GL too. I've got the Bentley manual on the way too so that should help me learn more about the VR6 motor.

Nah not really, just stay out of the left lane to avoid the manholes, you should be ok

Well... I think I found it. The green/red wires snake up and into the steering wheel, how would I go about disconnecting the system properly?
