[s-cars] looking for a CPS for the avant

[chris chambers]

Steve,

I have one if you need it.

i would also recommend you check your CPS's connector, I and others have had
the plug crumble away...probably due to age/heat.

If yours has a bad connector it shares the same plug as other components like knock sensors, but
I do have an extra plug if you need one.

Chris
