They all seem to work on mine except for the HONK on lock/unlock function.

I did the ESP disable a few weeks ago & love it! The JK felt like it had doubled or more the power available starting off & have hardly stalled it since. As against doing it regularly prior. Never stalled the TJ though, it had plenty of low down torque, unlike this minivan engine. Wish I could have afforded the CRD! Wanted one, but they were all out of my price range.

I found once I disabled the Hill Start Assist I was no longer stalling it. Seemed it didnt release the brakes quick enough for the way I drive and I was fighting the brakes to get it to move!

The Seat Belt bleeper works too. I havent done the ESP chicken dance yet, just havent got around to it really (I only drive it on weekends). I have been driving for almost 30 years and have never needed a computer to tell me if the vehicle is about to slip! I have however had the JK tell me a wheel was spinning as I pulled out quickly from a rough driveway into fast moving traffic, only to have the stupid computer decide that since a wheel was spinning it would apply the brakes to that wheel AND reduce power.. Not impressive when a line of cars are boring down on you and you have no power for several seconds after all wheels are back on solid bitumen

Did all JK's come with Hill start assist?

Couldn't get the auto locking of doors to work.
When switching to 'on' posi, do I need to wait until the start up sequence is finished, or a quick flick over to 'on' posi?

The Hill Start Assist I think is only 2010+ models. Not sure about the auto door lock, never tried it myself. I would say its a quick flick from completely off (as in where you can remove the key) to full ignition on (one click short of start)
