I realise the warning tone is there for a reason & also how complex it's integration is, if you indicate & remove your seat belt, the warning bong cancels out the indicator click, then when the 7 bong cycle finishes, the indicator click continues.....hhmmmm. It does sound like pulling the dash off & stuffing blue tack in the little speaker is the only answer. Perhaps I'll try that with my wife first & see if it has the desired effect before I tamper with my Rangey 08 TDV6 stornaway alpaca Chipped overfinch tiger & happy ! |

Well, As you will probably know, Proper Aussies are the black fella's that still live under trees so the answer to your question is no. The 4x4 market is a tough one over here, most are die hard Landcruiser fanatics, probably because if you break down in the middle of the bush, your more likely to find someone with a Landcruiser near by than a RRS.........idiots I say ! Mind you....I did blow my turbo the first day !...so maybe they're the smart ones .......I'll say no more 08 TDV6 stornaway alpaca Chipped overfinch tiger & happy ! |

So are you saying the in/out method doesn't work for 2008+ and only the dealer can do it? |

Yes that's correct, the trouble I found was in all the other posts, they said to sit in the car, ignition on etc etc & eventually the red man would disappear & you could then do your in/out.....stuff, well, according to the dealer who I discussed this with (after trying several time) said........totaly new computer set-up in the 2008 model, more flexibility to personalise....to a degree & a few glitches rectified (like the ability to disable the seatbelt warning on your own......he said ! but he was more than happy to disable it ....at no charge !!!! unheard of I thought, Mind you, it was in for it's first service so I was still paying him....in other ways. 08 TDV6 stornaway alpaca Chipped overfinch tiger & happy ! |
