    NEVER index windows again!

    Guys,
    this is the tip of the day.
    next time you have to replace your battery (and thereby loose window settings, clock, etc), BEFORE disconnecting it from the posts, connect a small 12 volt motorcycle battery to the battery cables with alligator clips (modern racing cars have an extra spade at each terminal to facilitate this) so that there's uninterrupted (not even for a nano second!)supply of 12 volt current to all systems. After hooking up the new battery, detach the auxiliary power source and you're done. Simple, huh? I suspect that this is how dealers do it, so they don't have to take the extra time to do all resets.

      Either of those tips might be good for C5s (and I stress MIGHT because I have no knowledge of C5s), but they are unnecessary overkill for a C6. All you lose on a C6 upon battery disconnect is the window index, and that is a simple (less than 30-seconds) reset. Run the windows up and hold the up position on the switch for three seconds. Not too hard folks. A C6 will NOT lose the radio presets or the memory function (if so equipped) or anything else.
