Hi, not sure on the satnav, the glovebox just needs adjusting, to get in temporarily hold the button in, lift the glovebox up with the palms of your hands (might be easier to get somoene else to hold button), the push it down quite forcefully. Just needs adjsutiung from the side of the glovebox with a long screwdriver, i'll find the thread if I can!! With the start button you need the keyless go card?!

Hope that helps!

I have the start button and need to use my keyless entry card to use it, doesnt work with the key! You should have a black credit card size fob with a button on it!

If you don't have the keyless go card you can't use your keyless go. It's about $400 programmed in the states.
