Different laws for mail order, they must give you seven days in which you can just change your mind and sent it back for a full refund check with trading standard, watchdog etc

I see its one of these ones from eBay.
Exact same happened to me.
First time after fitting the new MAF when the car went into boost it hit limp mode with "positive boost deviation".
Although they did give me a full refund.

You have the distance selling laws where you can send a product back if you change your mind, but the product has to be un used in a resalable condition...

Yup. The portland group.
There was a big thread on SC.net about these. Seemed to have happened to quite a few people.
