Customizable memory settings before delivery

Daas · 01-30-2007, 08:50 PM

Since I'll be getting the delivery at the PDC in South Carolina, my CA sent me the following list of options that I can customize before delivery...

1. Automatic door lock: off/timed/speed activated
2. Daytime running lights: on/off
3. Last seating position recall: off/upon unlock/upon opening of door
4. Triple turn signals: on/off
5. Visual confirmation: on/off (turn signals flashing upon locking)
6. Visual confirmation: on/off (turn signals flashing upon unlocking)
7. Pathway lighing timing: specify in seconds (this is how long you would like
your headlights to remain on after pulling the highbeam lever with the engine
off)

I'm OK with all except for #3 and #4. What do you guys use for #3 and how does the Triple turn signal thingy work?

Interesting. I'm taking PCD on 2/20 and I can't get them to give a list for accessories and I sure enough didn't get that list. I assume these are all things you can adjust yourself given you have the patience to actually read the owners manual. Being that I sometimes lack patience, I may have to make a call to my CA. Thanks for the heads up and good luck at PC. BTW, when do you take delivery?

I don't know where he pulled that list from, but my CA gave me a PDC marketing form and it talked about the "Car and Key memory form." I asked him about that form, and he said he would let me know the options I have. As long as I can program them myself w/o going to the dealer, I'm ok with that. BTW, delivery is sometime in April

Ordered in mid Jan, production will start 2nd week of Feb.

I think the triple turn signal is the setting for "changing lanes" where it signals/blinks three times then automatically stops, regardless of if you turned the wheel. #3 is only useful if someone else (who uses a different key) drives the car often. Otherwise it's useless

The delivery rep for my PCD showed me how to make all of those changes while he was delivering the car. There's no need to send in the changes in advance since he'll be walking you through the procedure on how to make the changes yourself.

I use the tripple turn signal so now it's painful driving somebody elses car because I'm no longer used to holding the blinker down for lane changes
