As an example, say I am driving into my driveway going forward I need to turn it on manually. I then park the car moving forward until it beeps telling me I am close to my garage door. When I select P it keeps quiet. I then switch the car off. Next when I switch the car on its quiet while in P but if I then select D or R it starts beeping.
Mmm - mine's definitely worked differently then up to last week - I've never had to engage it before (just wondered if I had inadvertently but it then stayed on, but if it disengages after 20 mph, then definitely not)

They have some clout with the dealers.
Will do - cheers.
