First post, I have just bought a 52 Plate 2.0 HDI 110 D Turbo and have a few questions that I haven't been able to figure out by reading the manual or searching on here, hoping someone can shed some light on the following:
Auto door locking - I would like my doors to lock shortly after pulling away and I believe this is a feature that my car should have? At the moment it doesn't do it and from what I have read you can re-enable it by holding down the central locking panic button on the dash. Do I need the key in a specific position? Engine started? Can't seem to make it work, do I need to go to someone with Planet to re-enable this?
Chime - As soon as I turn the key to the first position I get a chime sound (as it unfolds the external mirrors). Only seems to happen the first time after the car hasn't been used in a while, if I get out, lock the car and try again it doesn't make the same noise. What does it mean?
Drivers floor mat - I would like to buy a mat that can be held in place (the type that usually has two holes down the edge closest to the drivers seat). Looking at the floor in the drivers foot well though there isn't anything that would go through these holes to keep the mat in place. It looks like there may have been at one point, there are two holes in the floor carpet where I can see the chassis, one has a threaded bolt sticking upwards and the other looks like it may have had the same bolt but now only has a very tiny hole in the floor that I can see daylight through, can someone tell me what I am missing here?
Door pillars - Is there usually something on the A pillars about head height? I have a small tube looking thing on each pillar (about 3cm long by 1cm diameter) that I don't know what it is. My first guess would be that it is from a hands free phone kit, but there doesn't seem to be any other evidence of such a kit being installed. I can take a picture later if no-one has any idea what I am talking about!
Thanks!
