kinnsella Report post Posted April 2, 2017 How the fcuk does this profile thing work???? Each fob retains its own settings for seat position, radio channels, mirrors etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roman Report post Posted April 2, 2017 So... I ::think:: Ive got most of it figured out... except this whole profile/key thing. The key Im using seems to be linked to profile 2. So I gave that profile my name... Ive set all the various settings the way I want them... Thats it? That saves those settings to the key? Or is there another strp Im missing? What about when I go to the car wash and the dude moves my seat and changes my radio station to the all mariachi channel? And resets all my stuff? Doesnt that save those to my profile now? And if so... Whats the point? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roman Report post Posted April 2, 2017 So ok... I have two keys... I want them both set up the same way for now.... How do I make the second key accept the profile settings of the first? When I go into that keys profile, it seems to wany to reset everything first... Is there a way to say "just be like it is NOW"?

I am assuming the car was bought used, so profile one probably has already been setup. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roman Report post Posted April 2, 2017 So. How bout this. I have the heads up display. Love it. Already addicted. But. I want the media info to stay on the screen. At least longer. I'm scrolling through my iPhone playlist using the thingy on the steering wheel. But if I look up to actually concentrate on the car in front of me, it goes off. And I have to start again!
