Over the Christmas I had the nice hail storm here in Berwick. 1 K of damage!

Had it repaired the next week with paint less dent removal.

Just plugged in for the first time in a while to find internal intrusion sensor not working. Will pull out and plug in when I have time but it goes to show, do a quick scan when you have any major works or items removed, refitted from your vehicle as it may or may not show items that have not been plugged back in properly. My headlining was pulled out to complete the job as there were about 25 dents in the roof.

Sorry to hear that, Stewart.

Regarding the DTC for the interior motion sensor, will it throw some sort of an error message or dash light given a few engine cycles, etc? Or will only be visible if you use forscan or IDS?

Yes Janemar, it will show a DTC in the BCM but no cluster light. I only found the issue because I scanned for DTC's with Forscan.
