Took the motor down to the dealers today ~ a "recall" for a realignment of a heater cable that might short out.

No problems, but it took me a while to get the driving position back to the way that suits me (being a bit on the short side like)  Banghead

I feel your pain Uncle. I had the lads take and collect my car following repairs on Tuesday. Can I get the seat back in the right position... can I feck, me poor back  cry:  Course, had I spent me money on a posh car like Darwin instead of going to the bookies...  sad32:

My car has fancy electric seats that "pair" with the keys, so when Mrs DS uses her key, it automatically moves seat and steering wheel to her preferred position.

All very well until I pick up her key to nip to the shop and get jammed under the dash and crushed against the wheel. redface:
