Hi Pete,

Do you mean the addition of cruise?

http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1152953478

It's very easy. You will need to visit your local dealer.

Walk in, and confidently ask if someone has five minutes to spare as your cruise needs enabling with the Tech2 machine.

Suggest that you'll be happy to provide beer tokens in exchange.

Honestly, it cost me £5 and the 'mech' was quite happy!

Cruise. I love it. Use it all the time. In town, on motorways.

Good luck!

Mods. 'Hillper boot release'. Dimming mirror. Cruise control. Rear parking sensors. Becker/Rockford Fosgate/Infinity/Alpine audio.

Welcome to the site

As for cruise, I've had trouble getting dealers to do 'beer money' jobs as normally you get stuck with some faceless receptionist first

. If you are able to walk around the back, you may be able to persuade a mechanic to do it, if his boss ain't around Wink

I would acquire a stalk (you need to 4 wire type, not the 2 wire one for diesels), and see if it works. Some ECUs are pre-enabled, some need Tech2...

If you are going to kick a car, remember to wear appropriate footwear

I think that I will have a problem getting to the mechanic too, my local dealer is reception armed and getting round to see a mechanic will be hard. Will keep you all posted on the outcome Undecided
