#3 on that thread is wrong since I can turn on my radio via the volume knob and my vehicle is an early 01 production date.
#12 is wrong because I can roll down my windows in my 98 that way as well.

Still a good summary though.

Not sure if this was mentioned, but the one touch windows are INOP when a door is open. You can still roll them up and down, but you have to hold the button the whole duration.

Covered all the pages...

But didnt understand what is Tranny Reset? and How it can be done....

You can search around for tranny reset, it's very easy.

In your sig it says "with/out nav", so do you, or do you not have it? I've never seen w/o spelled out completely.

It's not really a reset, because when you turn the ignition off it resets to it's default setting...

Actually, that's not true at all. The transmission adapts to your driving style, so shutting the car off does NOT set it back to default settings, it just stays at what it's learned. Resetting the transmissions gives it a fresh start, no adaptions, and can even cure some thumping issues and Trans Failsafe errors.

Transmission Learning Reset, Simply turn the key to position 2. Hold the accelerator to the click point for 25 seconds. Let go of the accelerator, start the engine and off you go. The transmission's learning algorithm will be reset to 0. Therefore, it will lose the slow and gentle acceleration that the previous owner used... from Silver_5
