I will be installing my new CAI this weekend. Instructions suggest disconnecting the negative battery terminal before installation. Perhaps due to the disconnection of the MAF's. I do intend to follow this suggestion.

Will I lose my seat position/ audio presets / Nav setup / phone setup , etc.

Will I have to reprogram all this again?

 

You can install without disconnecting The battery. If decide to disconnect you will lose radio presets n I think you will have reset your windows. I believe nav set up/phone don't get affect it but don't take my word for it.

 

yes, you are correct. The radio presets and the windows were affected. Everything else is ok.

thnx

 

Awesome! Glad I was right

 

Ok....one more thing...the seat adjustments were lost as well...no big deal.

 

I just got an old cig lighter plug and wired it to a 9V battery. When I disconnect the battery just plug it in and you won't lose any presets.

 

Great idea. I'll remember that.
