easter eggs?

i learned from my friend that alot of cars have hidden easter eggs in them for like diagnostics or getting rid of the beeping sound when key is in ignition and seatbelt is not plugged in or door is open.

Has anyone found any for the svx?

No. I haven't found anything that isn't documented somewhere.

Oh, on the lighter side - If you put the wheels on backards, you'll hear about it right quick.

Mine doesn't beep when the key's in. Pretty sure it's just broken though.

Mine beeps. It will even beep when the key isn't in the ignition. It will also beep after I unlock the car with the key fob.

Re: easter eggs?

Easter Egg #1, if you know which secret wire to disconnect/connect, you can make the temperature readout change from C to F !!!!

#2, Another secret wire trick makes the engine light blink in sequences to tell you why its not feeling well!

#3, There is a TRAY underneath the passenger seat! A TRAY!

#4, The overhead light buttons look like a robot face!

#5, Underneath the bottom felt liner in the center console, there is a hex-key to open/close the sunroof!
