Crikey that's one stubborn Puzzle Is there any way of, er, un-programming when it locks when you drive at x mph? Our R56 has never locked - Just lock it when we drive through nasty areas.

Well it did it twice yesterday which was quite amusing, its done it before in the past as well. I went for a drive round the block and when I came back it was fine and unlocked as it should Im sure its one of the programmable features somewhere in the nav screen (though I only played with those features in the first week and have since left them be).

I think though, it maybe gets confused if you take the key out too quick? Not that it should, coz it should think that if the key isnt in there then the doors should be open

That is weird It may well get confused if you rush it, but if a key isn't in the ignition, no matter how rushed, then open the doors Its either in there or it isn't

Not another faulty sensor is it

Not that I know how you can 'rush' getting the key out

Faulty sensor? Hmm

Im not fussed about it anyway, the car will hopefully be gone in less than 3 weeks anyway! Just thought it was amusing that it should do it when its beng sold on, like its saying 'dont go'

I hope they are so they can bargain a good price off the dealer.

A few cars I’ve looked at I’ve had that thought in the back of my mind of is this car a reject! Especially the few doopers I’m looking at and a petrol cooper just now. One is an ex demonstrator but the others have done at most 6K and had one owner and the question arises why are they selling so soon after buying it from new?

Just a pity there is not a sticky on here with past car history’s just put up the car details
And list of known problems to look out for.

Now back to standard, no 'jo-ification' at all. Looks odd now but needs must.....this wash nearly ended in disastor when one of the black side skirt grille trims fell off Pushing it back made the rest of it unclip, but luckily its gone back how it should be now! Looks like I had dodgy skirts on both sides of the car
