Title: Activating trip computer on Meriva B
Post by: expositouk on 05 December 2015, 13:40:51: Hi folks - newbie here :y. I'm based in Nottingham and I don't actually own an Omega, but I have learnt quite a lot about Vauxhall cars on this excellent forum. I registered yesterday as I have a question about my car

It's a Meriva B (1.4, petrol, 2011). I was wondering whether one of the tech2 wizards on this forum can activate the trip computer and possibly install cruise control on this car, please? Any help will be greatly appreciated

Nice one, Varche! I'll wait to hear from Marks now. Just in case he's not on this forum anymore, can he be contacted via any other means? Cheers!
