Unless you take the seats out, are you even cleaning it?

All I got was some Quavers. They weren’t very tasty.

I think if I took my seats out all I would get would be an air-bag warning light! :lol:

Ah, I didn't disconnect the battery. Presumably the error that pops up can be cleared in the likes of Bimmerlink/Carly/Whatever?

Yep, according to the workshop instructions, you're meant to disconnect the battery negative terminal and leave the car for about half an hour before removing the seats.... guess thats in case the airbags go off. You're also meant to change the runner bolts with new ones and torque them up.

Well, I’ve done it on INPA, I’m pretty sure my Creator 310+ would have done it too. It’s just a matter of finding the fault(s) in the right sub-menu.
