Thanks. I'll give it a try

Hi' I have a 2001 4.0litre Auto P38. If the doors are locked it sometimes just opens the drivers door. If the doors are open it will sometimes close all the other doors but not the drivers. It does this when nobody is near the car and the ignition is off! As well as this when being driven the...

Thanks all again, I was told that the BeCM had been replaced , the part cost £450 and was guaranteed for 2 years. I was also told that if the battery goes flat when in the car It "might" need the codes reinputting. Nothing to do with the radio, key fob or EKA. The garage is a so called...
