Hi, Newbie here so hope this is posted in the right area> Had my RRsport (09 HSE 2.7) for just sbout 6 weeks and after looking through the manual cant see that it is possible to turn off the SatNav screen if not required. Had my first long distance night run last week and found the light from the screen very annoying.

option is in the settings mate, "turn screen off!"

need to do it each time u get in the car however, i used to get into a routine

Keys in
Start
seat belt
suspension up
screen off
put into drive
handbrake off

Thanks - missed that somewhere along the line.

i similarly did a few journeys before becoming suitably annoyed to figure it out

Again Thanks. Not sure if I should start another thread, but is there a way of getting the key fob boot(hatch) unlock to open the whole tailgate rather than just the glass opening. I am sure when I first got the car it opened the whole thing but I have probably inadvertently reset something and now only opens the top part. The Manual is not much help !!

dont think so mate, not somthing ive played about with

There is a thread on here somewhere saying how this can be done I think.
Something to do with holding the button down whilst opening which ever option you'd like it to do.
I'll see if I can find it.

Edit: Here it is, seems to relate to the extra button. Do you have that on your 2009 ?

Thanks Beancounter I'll give it a try. Read the manual but didnt understand that this was how you do it.

Can def be done cos my key fob was set to do it when i got the car, so although I can't tell you how I can tell you for sure it can be done.

And bloody handy it is too, so hopefully you'll get it sorted  Have i got the busted controller?!?!!?
