All he said was that after changing the clutch cylinder he got all sorts of errors. I know electronics can be finnicky but I find his response a bit hard to believe. I suspect maybe they damaged something when removing the pedal. I was thinking of retracing what he done and hoping its as simple as something unplugged but knowing my luck I doubt it.

That makes sense. I'm also not sure if I believe he replaced the clock spring or tried to have the original repaired, if thats even possible. I found a user on the forum that has the clock spring/SASM for sale. The local agents only list the clock spring and some other module they say comes part of the whole steering column.

Yes in SA we drive on the "correct" side of the road

TurboGT's theory does make sense though

VW's are way more popular and common in SA than anything else. Finding someone good to work on the Focus is a problem and the dealerships are insane with their prices and I don't trust them either. The ST has also been removed from the list of vehicles Ford will be selling here. Sad actually since I think the ST is better equipped and better looking than the VAG stuff.

Thats because you're a manly man.

Just out of interest what are the other men called?

So with my car being RHD and part the seller has is from LHD the wiper control and turn signal are obviously on opposite sides. He mentioned that the SASM would not work because of this. Is there any way I could get it to work? What other problems would it create and why would it not work other than the stalks being swapped which to me is not a problem since I'm used to driving EU cars that are that way anyways?
