Just wanted to ask you lot if there is anything other owners may not know about our cars, ie not in the manual, as an example, holding down

the lock button,on our remote key, closes all the windows when we leave the car, and, if we don't lock our cars, they lock themselves after a

certain set time time. :kissmyrings:

Off the back of that, holding down the unlock button opens the windows!

I 'accidentally' discovered the shopping hooks that are spring loaded in the boot of the saloon on Saturday. Had the car nearly 18 months so that was a surprise !!

Handy 3rd sun visor too behind the rear view mirror.

if you hold down the drivers auto button on the climate control for a few seconds the light will go out on the passenger auto button, now when you adjust the driver temp the passenger changes with it.

as soon as you change passenger temp the bond is broken.

Fuel filler nozzle button that when pressed for 10 seconds empties the main tank into the reserve and expels aair and allows up to 5l more fuel into the tank. That and it is really 70 capacity, not 63.

This has to be a strong contender for the most asked question on here - I've posted "how to" at least 3 times on this.
