Hi All

I bought a C6 auto about 6 months ago. Just a couple of questions -

A couple of times I have not been able to move from P to R to reverse the car off the driveway upon first starting the car for a week, but after a few minutes I can select reverse. Is this just waiting for the car to warm up ?

Sometimes the door won't open from the inside but opening the window and then opening the door from the outside solves the problem.

The service warning light has come on even though the car had a basic oil change etc a year ago but the service interval not reset. Is this anything to worry about or can it be ignored. Car drives well.

Thanks in advance for any usefull responses

Thanks guys for the responses. I had forgotten about the interior release. Looks as though there is no chance of the car going into any sort of limp home mode because of the dash light. I will look to clear this next time I am in the car.

A bigger problem this time. The button to start / stop the car got pushed into the dashboard. Managed to retrieve it back by removing lower dash surround and pushing / pulling it back into position. Now the car is completely electrically dead. No immobiliser light or anything. Probably a loose wire etc.
