Hacking into the car's main computer (archive)

We've all talked about decoding the OBC and changing settings on the radio, but what about hacking into the car's main computer(?) itself.

I mean, changing things that can only be changed with the dealer's diagnostic equipment. For instance, being able to change the settings so that one can roll up the windows from the key remote (something that can be done in Europe).

Is it possible to somehow hook up a laptop with the right software and tinker around?
