Pedalbox - remove or switch off for service?

[Watts]

Second service tomorrow morning, so do I remove the pedal box or just switch it off? It's been in for work a couple of times and I left it attached but off but not sure if they plugged the car in or not. Please, no answers on a postcard, service is at 1130 tomorrow!

Hi Peter

I asked the same question prior to mine going for its 1st service Rebecca recommended just turn it off as far as I'm aware I've not heard of anyone having any problems when cars in for service and it's turned off

Cheers Neil, exactly what I wanted to hear, can't bear the thought of driving there and back with it disconnected

Just don't forget to switch it off when you get there............and remember to tell them not to wash your car!

[I wanted a GTi]

When I was booking my car in e went for a drive to hear the rattles and other problems and as we were leaving a roundabout the guy asked me what dtuk box I had fitted

He asked if I had heard of the peddle box, I smiled and he asked what setting I had it on. Not all service managers are 'difficult'

Just turn it off and put a cloth in the(what do people call the box) to cover it up.

I left mine switched on and they never mentioned it.
Just damaged my wheel

I am worried I will forget....
No wash instruction already given and when they left a message today to confirm my booking they mentioned it

Good idea, so, remember to 1 switch it off, 2 take a cloth, 3 deploy 'cloaking device' and 4 reinforce the washing ban....

That was a bugger, sorted yet?

Actually Watts you forgot to mention a rain dance so he can get the car to the dealer clean so that they can see that there is no marks on it.
