chuffed with the result

Well, I have my omega now for 3 weeks.
Finally I got around and done everything I wanted to do so far.
With some bits I still planning to do, as always

Hoover it
Cleaned it and scrub it inside
Pampered it inside
Washed it 4 times, waxed it, polished it,T cut as final to get the paint back up to glamour.
Washed it gain,polished it and I hope this weekend it get another coat of wax.

Fitted the new stereo,
Installed a tab and I pad holder
Cover the door pockets as they been well used with word trim pic, same as dash
Resprayed the alloys
Treated the rust
Fitted a reversing cam
Fitted reversing sensors
Installed a speed cam warner
Double foiled the rear windows
Led sidelights
resprayed the bumpers front and rear
Treated sunroof and windows with silicon spray
Cleaned all window and sunroof switches from dust inside
Fixed the ashtray,it didn't open properly

All what I was T and need to do now is getting it in for a full service
Including new  represent front.

Would anyone know if the ECU can be reset to new standarts. Factory reset.
I could do this with the v70 volvo when I bought it by disconnecting the batteries for 2 hours, without loosing
Alarm and immobiliser settings.
Is there any way on the omega doing the same?
