Also, edited the title of your thread. PM me if you want a different username for the forum other than your actual name. As to your problem; So it's only the beeps not working? is the camera and the lines portrayed on it working? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it possible to be turned off cause I was playing around with the settings on the interior command centre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's not something that can be turned off on the command centre cause it seems like it stopped working when I was playing around with the command centre. I've wanted a scan tool for awhile now gives me an excuse to get one now I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you here talking to me have one more question when I turn my car off the turbo still spins for awhile and when it is it sounds like a dry loose bearing is my turbo on its last legs this is my first turbo car so not to sure about turbo stuff was a V8 fan had a xe Fairmount Ghia with 351 that was around 430hp nothing sounds as good as an old V8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ensure your turbo-oil-supply-line filter is removed to ensure the longevity of life for your turbocharger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
