HELP-WONT START-displays CODE ----
 

Please any advice, I was tweaking the bc button and the tried to set mpg and time etc only to be displayed on the instrument cluster,and I must have reset something else, went to start a few hours later and I get and I get this message on the instrument cluster CODE ----

FIX COURTESY OF POWERS1 AND Q7SILVER WAS


Right I tried code 0000 and 0123 no joy, wish I had checked manual as you said, but this is what I did

1.Disconnected battery for 5 mins
2.Reconnected
3.alarm sounded for 45 seconds
4.put key in ignition and turned to position 1 OR 2 until display shows a timer counter down to 10mins
5.After 10 mins started!


Does anyone have any idea if I will have to do this procedure every time I "play with" or remove battery ?


I also called the dealer for the code, but they just don't have a code, get car on a platform, and we will program car is what they said!:banghead:

PS as kindly pointed out by Powers1 solution is in: OWNERS MANUAL PG 83
