Interesting LCR facts....
- Thread starter Mitchy
- Start date
During the summer , windows down , stop the car get out , oops not closed windows , use the key to lock the door and hold it in place after locking it , and ur windows will close .....
All these are new to me as I haven't even picked my LCR up yet! But that one is definately worth knowing! I had that as an extra on my escort cosworth about 5 years ago on the clifford 500 alarm. That alarm did so much I never did manage to get it to do that! I remember making it flash whilst I was in the petrol station queuing to pay though...lol
It's more aerodynamic than a golf mkv gti as it has a drag-coefficient of 0.32 as opposed to 0.32064 (every little helps!)
It also has a slot in the lower dash under the steering wheel for the service book which no one uses.
I think the locking wheel nut has a number on the end so if you lose it seat can give you another.

does the opposite too, get back to your car on a warm day and hold the key in the open position and it will open them all ......... got the manual in front of me now!
trying to figure out how the heck the wing mirrors work, some times one moves, other times they both move.....confuse the crap out of me
also.....
when you floor it back window steams up!
if you leave the indicator on and get out of the car, it will have one light switched on (depending on what indicator position its on)...know as parking lights
anti hijack locking (which comes on at 15kmH) SHOULD be set from the factory.
mitch, re hitting 60mph in third... i found this out a week ago today at bruntingthorpe airstip!
(http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=100070)That is a good 1, i never knew that
and turn the key the other way (to the right) and it will lock and make the windows go down until u let go of the key... so if u want to leave ur windows slightly open in the summer!
Most LCR owners don't read their owner manuals
Most of the above items are all within the manual and yes 2 presses on the lock button on your fob will not only disable the deadlocks it also deactivates the volumetric sensor. (or something to do with the alarm - I don't have the manual with me )

a lot of ppl will adjust the passenger mirror and then adjust the drivers and then wonder why the passenger mirror has adjusted it self again...
you are ment to adjust the drivers mirror first and then the car will work out from this how u want your passenger mirror, well supposedly! lol

But strangely a TDI FR opens even with the engine running
diesel is difficult to ignite - not much of a safety risk in leaving disel engine running while filling up, unlike petrol.
i'm anal about my alloys and always use the passenger mirror to park,
i thought it was to do with which way you turn the mirror knob when you fold them
Doesnt on mine the engine has to be off.But strangely a TDI FR opens even with the engine running
So does low screen wash, why do they have to same warning sound, is running out of screen wash really that serious?
Mine either, i know for a fact is doesnt as when i picked it up the dealer forgot the diesel so we drove to BP and he filled it up, i couldnt get teh cap to open until i took the keys out of the ignitions, i also thought 2 presses on the fob meant deadlock on, what does having them off mean?
Is there any way in HELL i can get the stupid car to open all doors with one press its a complete faff. EVERY time i get in the car and sure i have pressed it twice i get my gf trying to open the door and she cant get in. Or if i park and get out and try to go in the back for a bag or something, again the dam doors locked and i have to go bavk and press the button the drivers door inside.
