Welcome to OOF
We had an interesting eating experience last month in Spain. We polled up at a rural hotel and the owner said I will book you in to a restaurant in next village.
When we arrived it looked like any hock village cafe bar. Owner came over and said what do you fancy? Is there a menu.? No. What do you fancy? Fish, meat? We settled fpr beef. Bottle of wine which came with a very nice tapas ( free) . Dessert was delicious too. No prices! It was one of the nicest meals we had for ages. 84 euros for two. We think he was a Michelin star type chef that had down sized for an easy life.
This is why coding apps like Bimmercode and Carly are so popular for coding in options.The possibilities are endless. No more police chases in a beemer, or any other make for that matter. The rozzers just ring up and get the car switched off. Many, many more applications.
What makes the linked article interesting though is that a lot of the options must already be on the car at manufacture - ie heating pads in seats and steering wheel but coded out in the ECU.... That would have been like buying an Omega GLS but actually it's an Elite with bits turned off
The thing with over the air updates is how long before we see car manufacturers acting like Microsoft (Lets make Windows XP slower with the final service pack to encourage Windows 7 uptake) or Apple (Lets slow older devices down and tell everyone it's to preserve battery life). .........Hello Sir, we've decided that your car is now five years old so we've limited it to 50Mph and it will only start and drive between 9am and 6pm.
Once I'd taken everyone's (much appreciated) feedback onboard and sat down to actually do the belt, further evidence came to light to suggest that the engine was previously worked on by a silverback gorilla with the delicate touch of a wrecking ball.
Do you fancy takeing your partner for a lovely meal?
Sadly if they are vegan then dont bother,
If you want other than beef - dont bother
If you fancy Sirloin - dont hold your breath - you get what you are given.

DIY job with the hedge trimmer.
What's the worst that can happen?
Electrically speaking the sensors are identical.
The actual difference is the length of the wire due to the gearbox shape.
This.
Or if you don't mind fiddling on with the wires you can get Bosch generic pnes that have an adapater plug to the GM worong
This^^^^^ as it's cheaper
And you can also extend the wires if you move the sensors when fitting 3.0L downpipes, or modify the 2.6 ones
I get that monthly. Got to cut back in these tense financial times!
