Mine just had the country code set to somewhere in Europe, Poland IIRC. I set it to the MG Assist number easily enough.

You can, but they only insure it for the market value at the time you take out the insurance. So if you rely on your car insurance policy giving you new for old for the first year then take out GAP for the second year the Gap will cover the cost of a 1 year old car.

How to overcome seat belt warnings and associated problems. ;)

I initially thought mine was developing the broken button fault reported on here by a few members. Until it started working the next day. Then because it worked faultlessly for quite a while until the second time and has worked faultlessly since (about 8 months) I assume it's just one of those...

Ah yes, now I've had another look, it does say the vehicle starts etc. TBH I never noticed it, didn't it say something similar on the old version ?

No, mine's working ok ATM.

Or contact cleaner maybe ?

My guess is it may be trying to tell you your 12v is low.

Mine's done it a couple of times on the drivers door, I didn't try the other door at the time, but it started working again the next day.

That looks like the 30 second auto lock feature to me, which shouldn't engage after opening the boot. I tried unlocking mine, without opening a door, but opened the boot to chuck the key in and the car didn't auto lock. I also did the same without chucking the key in and again it didn't lock.

A poor response by the RAC, does the AA have the same rule now ? When I was an AA patrol many years ago, lockouts and flat batteries were the two most common call outs.

Check Fuse F88 in the fuse box under the bonnet.
