Even if the dealer WANTS to help you...they can't due to the changed stardiagnose software which does not allow the deactivatoin of the view while in motion speedtrigger...

yes, and next time most probably (90% sure) with enabled US spec comand units...so watch TV while in motion (for passengers that is!).

i just dropped my car off for warranty work today. spoke to my service advisor, he told me he knows of a place in campbell that would do that kind of enabling. i dont think it's a dealership but he'll get me the name of the place when i get my car... would be nice to set up a game system to it.

Only on units I have here...since I need to take them and have them actually reprogrammed (can't do it myself)...no matter whether it is US or euro spec.

BTW: I noticed it was cloudy in Houston today ...

Phattbam,
are you in the Campbell area?
I work there...

And hoping that Smyth will turn off
"NO PHONE" and enable
Tunnel mode for sunroof.
Waiting for call back for next service. ie B.

Did you have any luck getting those done?

I had mine set to "NOT PRESENT" since I don't have a phone.
Therefore it no longer displays anything related to the phone.
Just one less prmopt to scroll though.
Hmmm.
Bechoff better?
I almost was going to try them, in fact posted on it to find out if they were any god but then found out there were all the way out by Tully and 101...and I'm in Campbell.
Not that far I suppose. I was expecting them to be near all the other dealerships in Capitol.
