Having read about how helpful FRF Motors Swansea are on the same subject I gave them a call only to be told that I would need to bring the car in to them along with the ownership papers etc. I explained that I lived in Lancashire and so that was really out of the question.
This leaves me a bit baffled as to how other people in the forum could acquire a radio code via a phone call but I can't.
Hi Brian Morrison.....You don't need a code
the radio is coded to the vehicle so it doesn't matter if the battery is disconnected - it'll work when it powers back up.
