I just got my car back from a 9 day stint at the dealer for squeeking brakes, i drive crash, cd player skipping, auto lights staying on and the software upgrade with the hope of BLUETOOTH:

Well after a week, No Bluetooth took 16.2 upgraded without a hitch (did have to replace the light module though.

Had to shave down the indicator on the brakes to stop noise (a service buliton is out on this fix according to my mechanic

replaced light control module per software update

ordered a new cd player for the skipping problem should be here next week, will need another reprograming ( maybe crash and get bluetooth)

The things that i have noticed about the 16.2: My car idles dead solid now, no throttle lag car seems faster.

Also I drive seems to boot quicker and does not flicker at night

I also noticed the words SMS in the communications menue, does anyone know what this is does or stand for it is disabled i asked the tech he did not know i would really like my phone reactivated like it was when i got the car is this possible?

Buddy,

Just arrived in Richmond on 29 May, stationed here (
Ft Lee) as discussed some months ago. Can you put me in contact with someone that may have a copy or can make a copy of the Nav CD for the 5'r.? My vehicle wont arrive from Germany until the first week of July, cant wait!? We must hang out when it arrives.?
