Good luck with that -- if it works, you'll be the first in the USA...

The light switch can be pressed firmly inside, like hidden little bit. Did some body know for what?

My first post from Finland 
Does anyone know what info i get when pushing odometer and turning start key. I think that some kind of self test of the display? Car is 525 year 2003.
I think that also something info of the manufacture date.

look what mine does:
I drove back the same way as my last trip yesterday, before take off I took out the navi DVD (business) but the calculating and guidance worked like always and all the way to destination.
Strange because often the dvd drive hangs up during the trip and then guidance stops too.

I don't think I spotted this in this long 'tricks' thread, but I thought I will mention another useful/useless trick - if you do not want the courtesy lights to come on everytime you open the door (perhaps where sun always shines or for privacy reasons) then just press & hold the main courtesy light button (centre button above the rearview mirror) for few seconds. This will switch off the lights for good (until that is you manually press the button again to turn it on).

IF YOU HAVE COMFORT ACSES YOU CAN OPEN THE WINDOWS AND SUNROOF FROM THE REMOTE... AND YOU CAN CLOSE THE SUNROOF AND MOONROOF BY HOLDING THE DOOR HANDLE... AND YOU CAN OPEN THE SAME WAY AS WELL....
