Not sure if this applies to a flight only booking made using the 72 hour hold facility - would be interested to hear if this is the case.
Hi you cant change a held booking once its held as its booked as flight only.

What you are talking about (in terms of adding car) is at a point in the booking process before any booking has been set up thats why it can be done that way.
