Why must the car be fully warmed up?

It DOES have to be warmed up (fully is how much?).
It is part of the conditions to be met for the car to enter diagnostic mode (what you are in if you successfully execute the 'pedal dance').

Why? Who knows. Maybe it was to minimize the chance that someone stumbles across it messing with their car in the driveway?

I believe some Scions will apply to this.

At least the ones with door handle lock unlock sensors.

On Limited BRZ's
Factory settings:
When you touch the inside of the handle to unlock the door,
it unlocks the drivers side only. If you want both driver and passenger
side to unlock with a single touch of the handle, do as follows.

Open The driver door,
Leave the car off,
On the key fob Hold down both Panic and Lock buttons for ~5secs.
When you let off you should hear a beep.

It didn't work for me when cold. How warm is warm? Dunno.

- You can also set the gear indicator (Google it!), but it's not "real-time" that it needs a couple seconds to register.


The gear indicator displays the gear number selected when the clutch pedal is released. It is real time if you aren't on the clutch pedal.

Great thread. I really didn't know some of this stuff. Thanks. Now I know what gear I'm in just by looking at the tach.
Here is a small thing. The glow in the dark trunk release inside the truck (just in case you forgot you put someone back there, or it closed on you while you were in there) has a way to be attached so it isn't dangling. Make sure that you flip it so you can see the writing on it, and then snap it into place.

I just checked and this worked on my Monogram. Thanks!

The FR-S comes with bandaids. You can patch yourself up when you cut yourself on the piece of plastic right next to the oil filter... trying to take out the oil filter. Or putting it back on.
