• Put new battery in... need to tell car ???

• You should reset the BMS with a diagnostic tool. This tells the car to start a process of learning the characteristics of the battery so it can use it optimally.
  
  However, the BMS is constantly lear ...

  Drive it, park it, lock it, try again.

• Remote start failure

• The remote start only works when the car is locked and all windows closed.

  A window reset is really easy. Open the windows ...

• It's where the battery negative connects to the body in the boot.
  
  Some vehicles needed it replacing because of an intermittent bad connection which causes random faults in multiple systems.

• Rear seats on refresh model.

• It was an extra cost option called "intelligent seat fold". Not a standard feature.
  
  In fact, some of the newest models have fully manual seats in row 2 & 3.
