Title: TB's top tip for later facelift owners
Post by: TheBoy on 18 April 2010, 20:01:11
After spending about 45mins looking at why tech2 wouldn't talk to alarm unit, and remote fobs wouldn't unlock car, TB's top tip for 2002/2003 saloon owners....


Don't do the boot mod ;D ;D ;D

The boot mod causes issues with courtesy light - it stays on for 10s after door is closed, whether ign is on or not.
