Hidden Features

Hi,
Is there any hidden features on the Cee'd's onboard computer?

I know Opel and Ford usually have!

Not found any yet....

Just what it shows in the book, due to an 'error' on my part, I had to change it back from 'F to 'C, after it reset itself.

I too would love to know. I can't believe there isn't a service menu but so far nothing has turned up.
2 previous cars have both had 'service only' settings but these have been common knowledge and have needed to specifically ask the dealer for changes or have needed a contact with the necessary hardware to make the changes.

The Astra for example has got some very int interesting hidden features, like "actual speed", oil pressure and somethings like that!

I'm sure someone will find them out!

I guess it would need to have someone looking over a techies shoulder whilst in the dealers and see what he's doing. If the car runs a CAN bus then there could be some standard software out there that might be useful. Is there an OBD port ?

This was the first that I looked for since I'm from the Audi camp and I have a ODB II cable already. There is a connector under the hood marked "diagnostics" but that is not a standard ODB II connector.

VAG-COM for Audi/VW cars is excellent and I would love to have something similar for the ceed.
