Going to set this as a stickie so people can post any features owners have enabled on their SYNC system or programme changes they have made and hopefully some How To's if people agree.

Options that I know that can be enabled so far are:

1) Climate (Sync can mimic the physical button settings thus enabling Climate control on the SYNC screen)
2) Autolock (this can be enabled via Forscan)
3) Surround Sound (for those people that don't have the option on there cars)

Can FORScan read module software levels? I've downloaded the software but yet to dig out my old ELM327 device.

I think that might be out of the question as it would have to know the car is in neutral

Think the car must be in park, gearbox locked not neutral, hence why this is not available to manual car owners.

'press clutch to start' would be your blocker on a manual. Maybe with a few house bricks in the footwell you could hack your way round it :)

Apparently the new version can but i think they have pulled that version for now.

There are other programmes out there like UCDS but not sure if they are free.

Just curious, is there any way to monitor the charge level of the Hybrid battery? It would be nice to know how much Hybrid assistance was still available displayed on the screen.
