''The CAN Bus is an automotive bus developed by Robert Bosch, which has quickly gained acceptance...

Quickly? PMSL. I remember building a CAN controlled light cluster at school as an A level electronics project (and that was a long time ago). ;D
About the same time as Mercedes were polishing it for the then new S Class :y

Yes, this light cluster came from a new model, too. A Ford Sierra Sapphire. :-X

thanks guys that makes sense. are these requests made at certain times? set certain times that is?

Depends on the request... things like brake lights/indicators or anything switch controlled by the driver would be instant on demand, other things such as oil or coolant level or ABS activation would need a number of conditions to be met before anything happened...

Instant is possibly not the best description...... ;D
