diagnostics modes
To keep people from having to track down the codes for the different diag modes. Note, none of these are credit to me, just putting them together in a useful place. Here is what I have found so far from various locations:
ipod diag:
* select audio aux input
* hold down hangup and down arrow for about 8 seconds
* release both buttons
Info found here: http://www.mercupgrades.com/iPod+Vol...rticle-45.html
console diag (disable traction control, reset service indicators, etc):
* turn key to position 1
* press and hold accept call button
* press and hold okay button
* after about 8 seconds, you should get into the diag mode
* release both buttons
Here is a video of that http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tLtaMPS46o

Anyone figure out the command system diag/engineer menu keys yet?

Push stop/start without your foot on the brake?
There's another thread with info for getting to the menu (where the disable ESP vid came from) that they specifically mentioned how it works with keyless go.
