Just got my car back from paint shop but they took the door off and didn’t unplug the battery!

Can offer beer money in return :)

Thanks

well yes I've asked - but they don't have anything to be able to reset it and they won't reimburse me for a trip to the dealers!

I'd have paid their bill, less the cost of a reset elsewhere, if they weren't prepared to sort it themselves.

Which side of Bristol are you? I'm down near Glastonbury and would be happy to help.
