there are 4 numbers, but the code starts with an F has 2 numbers then and S then 2 numbers, wondered if the S meant press * and god knows what the F is? it looks like its the origional code printed on the sticky back label supplied with the car from new.

Just type in the numbers and all should be okay,

Mind you, thats providing the code hasn't been changed.

I wasn't the first owner of my car and the previous owner had changed the code and not written it down!!!!!A quick trip to simpsons of swindon and they changed it FOC
