  • This video shows you how to customise your car settings. The car being used is a 2009 corsa d. I believe most corsa ds and potentially other vauxhalls from 2008 onwards can be compatible to these settings. Thanks for watching🙂🚘

    Not sure if everyone knows but if you hold lock or unlock button on your key it will open or close all the windows, handy on a hot summer day before you get into car

    The "automatic rear wiper" option only kicks in if you have the front wipers on and you put the gear lever into reverse. So there shouldn't be any screech in summer cos presumably you're only using the front wipers if it's raining.

    Holding the door unlock and door lock button down is something I've learnt too.

      As a female, I personally like this feature especially when getting into my car on at night in a car park or a side road or just a sketchy location in general as it makes me feel safe knowing some creep isn’t gonna try come into my car from one of the other doors. I heard many horror stories from friends about people jumping into their cars from the back doors especially so it’s a great safety feature!

    Love the lights on with the unlock. Also. If on your keys, if you hold them the open button down when unlocking the car it fully opens all windows. And if you get out the car and forget to shit them, if you hold the lock button down it’ll auto close all the windows. This is so handy. My kids think I’m magic when I do this haha. The undo window is great when walking back to car on a hot day and windows down before even getting in the car

    • @BrakesWheelsAutomobiles
      @BrakesWheelsAutomobiles  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hiya mate. Have you tried the hidden setting to adjust indicator volume? Sounds like an electrical issue somewhere along the line. Maybe check the fuse box to start with as that will be cheapest.
      Try plugging in a code reader and see what comes up. Could also be water damage on an area of the electrics this time of year (ecu, fuse box, wiring).
      Also what sort of screechy noise? Do you mean the hand brake or just car in general? When is the squeeking happening? Could be a handful of things starting with potential worn brakes.
