Well it doesn't work on facelift 3.0 models   :(

But thats all right since I forked out £60 for an ecu reader, would have been gutted if I could have done it without the expense.  :y

Don't think facelifts can be paper clipped even with the 30XE engine  :-/

How do you reset it?

I use an Opel Autoscanner, but any ELM327 device should work on the 3.2
