  1. Hi Ritch....welcome to the Club I have found this on Honda models with keyless fob and turned out to be the buttons being pressed when in trouser pocket, for example. Also, with auto-window-drop it may be worth disabling this function in the vehicle settings, at least the windows will stay up. Maybe also worth considering a Faraday pouch to see if it is the key fob that is triggering the unlocking...remember, you may have two keys.
  2. great information Dave....I'm after some newer scan tools as my set is the old round plug models that still work on my Z3 but has limited data through the K-line. Will probably give the v1.4.0 a try if you rate it and at that price it's worth a punt. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/V1-4-0-OBD2-Diagnostic-Scan-Interface-Scanner-Programmer-For-BMW-E38-E39-E46-E53/323235896567?hash=item4b425c5cf7:g:108AAOSwX3Fa6Sl5
  3. Hi Christopher....welcome to the Club There are so many out there....here's a couple of links for the cheaper ones, which although they do work for pulling out codes and cancelling them down, they do lack a lot of other functions. This one seems quite good, although I haven't tried it but it boasts quite a few features: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MVDIAG-BLUETOOTH-USB-CAR-DIAGNOSTIC-OBD-SCANNER-AUDI-BMW-SKODA-VW-MERCEDE/263529694166?hash=item3d5b9803d6:g:2OUAAOSwcaFZEMnd This one I can vouch for and is a great piece of kit for the money https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LATEST-ICARSOFT-BMM-V2-0-BMW-MINI-OBD2-CAR-DIAGNOSTIC-FAULT-CODE-SCANNER-TOOL/283009962052?epid=21018638200&hash=item41e4b55044:g:ufQAAOSwH9tbSjzt Let us know how you get on and what you end up buying
