Morning all,

I picked up my 04 GT at the weekend. 60K on the clock, and am very pleased with it.

It's going back to my dealer though as the odometer is constantly flashing, although no other warning lights are on. I've tried turning the ignition off and on again and waiting for the electical checks to finish, and an "OK" appears on the central display........but the odometer is still flashing.

There's also another little problem with the passenger window. It goes down well enough, but it goes up in stages. I need to keep pressing the button (either passenger or driver side) to get the window to close fully. I read that holding the button down for ten seconds and then up for ten seconds completes a reset, but this does not seem to have worked. Could this be the check that's failing on startup and causing my odometer to flash ??

Thanks in advance for any answers........beautiful car though, I think I made six trips to the shop on Sunday after "forgetting" sugar, milk, etc etc......just another excuse !!!
