Is there a way to change the alarm point at which the frost alarm initiates?

The alarm is to highlight that it could be getting icy, so moving the temperature it goes off would not change when ice may occur, but you'd lose the warning, though I see what you mean. As you can drive, you can prob look out the windscreen and realise it could be icy !

i dont know how it would affect other systems but you could take the sensor off its bracket ,wrap it in foam and tuck it away behind the headlight....if it works great if it doesnt then its not hard to put back to its original position.. |

Unfortunately the CCF for 2007-2009 doesn't include the low temp warning (or at least I can't find it!).. Not sure about 2010 onwards.

I would have thought there were a few systems that were referenced fom the temperature, so it would have to be accurate.
