Doug, Mario He means our key. You know how you can use it to open or close the windows and sunroof.......... He did not search the forum so creative thinking must be used. This is prep for understanding a baby

Yes there is. Oil level in knots, auto matic window control when occupying the right rear passenger seat with the headrest up, etc. All is available to you by following the instructions posted on Anaheim Drew's homepage. If you would like to take the long way then you will need to use . HTH

Citron: Was this confirmed or was it a case of user error? I read the post I think you are refering to and there was confusion as to if the guy was looking in the right place.

I didn't try it out before I dropped my coupe off to be shipped, but the manual suggests that it only advances channels, not pre-sets.

If that is the case I would consider it a huge regression. I use that feature all the time on my 2001. Blah!
