Dropped it off for 3rd service (inc brake fluid); air con service and MOT. Haldex service soon at specialist place.
 
In prep: Pedal box switched off (boo!), headlight washers etc temp re-enabled with obdeleven. Do not wash signs in place.  Work sheet already pre-scrawled with “DO NOT WASH” as Gemma the service lady knows me well.
 
Lets hope they don’t use it as a demo!  :shocked:  :grin:


I hope the MOT tester had sunglassss on!  :cool:

Unfortunately not, and now he’s in the clinic having his retinas reattached.  :grin:

Anyway, all serviced and MOT’d and no problems. 



Pedal box switched back on the second I got in the car. Ahhh.   Tonight obdeleven back out to code out the headlight washers again.

Did you only reset the headlamp washers Rebecca before taking it in or did you do all the OBD tweaks?

I only reset the headlight washers, and re-enabled the Stop/Start (just in case). All other obdeleven adaptations I left as they were.  I left the pedal box installed, just switched it off.

Mine took me for a great day out in Dover today. Not an exciting drive, M25/M2, but it really shows why this car is so good as it was very refined and comfortable. Over 200 miles completed and no fatigue, just relaxed :smiley: I also love the way that it will pull out for a quick overtake with no gear change, plenty of torque available. Brilliant :smiley:
