My car is about to be booked in for its first service. It has some niggles (don't they all).

The first is a message comes up saying that the alarm needs a service. I've been told that this message will be cancelled at the service.

The second is a couple of times the volume completely goes on the entertainment system - music, navigation directions and the phone (Yes I know. Listen to the engine). I'm sure this will be fixed with an update of the AMI firmware.

The third is that the door trims are creaking. My previous Vantage never did that. Has anyone got experience of what this may be and is there an easy fix? My guess is that one or several of the fixings in the door trim is loose.

Many thanks for reading.

Is it definitely the doors as the air vents can creak and it could be those? I don't know of any known door trim creaks but there almost certainly are some.

Btw - did you get your vandalism fixed?

V8V Pete. No I haven't got the scratches fixed yet. I've got a couple of quotes and I want to get Sevenoaks to quote as they sold me both the car and the paint protection insurance.

I've decided to get Sevenoaks to give the car its first service so they can iron out the warranty issues and if their price for the paintwork is sensible they can liaise with the insurance company.
