  • I get sick to death of reading stuff on here like this.. !!!!!! read the handbook, play with buttons - its all part of the fun of getting a new car.

    People like the OP make me so glag I'm not in the motor trade any more.

    Amen to that :D

    Apart from the annoying issues, which will probably be easy for the garage to sort, it would have been a good idea to have had a bit of a 'handover' to the customer, explaining the simplest of things,as it isnt expected that they would know where everything was.

    Thats what we used to do, when I had my sales business.

    It turned out to be a simple solution as you suggested. Thank you for your kindness.

    I remember when working in the after sales department of a main dealers (not going to name the marque as can't be arsed answering the inevitable smart-arsed remarks) a customer returned his week old car complaining about the rear window winder-handles not being in the exact same corresponding positions when the windows were closed.
