      @Ted D thank you for your reply. My son has a 2012 R60 D in the UK and I notice his recirculation for AC does not have to be turned on everytime he starts ac. Where as I do in mine. I have changed all marker lights to LED and now get codes. I see that I should be able to fix this with this. My next question is which OBD do I get as there are many listed with a Wide range price difference. With everything you get what you pay for so I don't want to go cheap but I live on a fixed income so can't afford to over spend. Thanks again!
