Ok phoned them again today, some story about an e mail that was sent to Japan and not answered. It would appear that someone then closed the case, which of course it shouldn't have. Have now re opened it, apologised lots and will get back to me.

It seems from reading this article that the problem is considered to be a Japaness issue - however from a description of the problem I would think that the same conditions exist here.

It also has to be remembered that most of our vehicles spent the first 10 years of their driving life in Japan.
