Yep - I automatically press the button when I leave the car. Laughing

Dont think there's an option. FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy
Ex 2006 RRS SC - garbage
Ex 2016 135i M Sport - dream car
Ex 2003 RS6 Avant - piece of cr*p
Ex 2014 320d X Drive, M Sport Touring - ok I guess
Ex 2007 RRS TDV8 - bloody loved it
EX 2007 FL2 XS - not so bad

Hi zb

I asked the same question about 12 months ago, i was told the only way was to cut the wireing loom and fit some sort of gadget (relay i think) Crying or Very sad , at that point i backed off and forgot about it.

If anybody knows how to or sells a gadget i'd pay good money for it.

Cheers Thumbs Up

is this some sort of business option for the RRS driver who needs to carry large amounts of documentation

buy a freelander2 Whistle but then you may need to regularly oil them as they can get a bit juddery or creaky. mine never did but its a common faulty on the forum.

I think people use the wrong oil the first time and that attracts dust/grit that cab never be cleaned out.

I was suprised to find that you have to push mirror adjust button to fold mirrors on RRS. Surely the same software could have been used on this more expensive car? itisme

fl2 has global window close from remote too, and the rear passenger light comes on when you open the door, nothing earth shattering so why not fitted to RRS Confused

Lets not forget the parking sensors do not mute the radio when they are beeping. Also you can switch lights on with remote to see car in crowded dark car park. As you can on a FL2. Confused Confused itisme
