With the car locked, unlock it, open the back door. The car electronics starts and bluetooth grabs the iPhone call you are on turning the audio into handsfree. You can hear and talk. Close the back door. Electronics shut down and iPhone audio goes back to the handset. Open the front door...

There is another radio bug that is fairly well known. If you leave the car with AM or FM radio playing when you return the radio will restart but playing a different station, sometimes on the other band. AM531 is particularly popular.

There is a car dealer in Adelaide doing exactly this. At any point he seems to have a nice new top spec Model S sitting there for sale at a price somewhat higher than you would pay if you ordered it now. Good on him for enterprise :-) jsl
