Re: Android Auto - Hands Free 'Play My Messages'

Problem finally solved after reading through the delightful in car help manual. If you LONG press the mic button on the steering wheel it connects via Android Auto (or presumably whatever the Apple one is too) directly to my phone's Google assistant and it will play my messages through the Infotainm...

Re: Roof Creaking

Same problem here, only in recent colder weeks. Thanks for the silicone spray tip.

Android Auto - Hands Free 'Play My Messages'

Had the car a few months now. Initially, when I pressed the voice button on the steering wheel, I could say "play my messages" or "read me my whatsapp messages" etc. and it would read them out. However, when I ask the same thing now, it always says there are no new messages, even...

Re: Intermittent Wipers DO NOTHING

OK, so issue solved. If I turn OFF the 'auto wipers in rain' setting (buried nice and deep in the infotainment system), then the intermittent wipers work exactly as you'd expect. What a ridiculous system! I just don't get the logic here. Still, glad I've got intermittent working and will leave the '...

Re: ID3 when reversing suddenly breaks

Think I've found a solution. As per my post above, I knew I'd seen it somewhere! So, when you're reversing and the camera display comes up on the main console, you also get a little setting icon (cog wheel) come up. I don't think this is ever accessible from anywhere else - no wonder it's hard to f...

Re: Intermittent Wipers DO NOTHING

I've tried the control switch on top of the stalk in various positions but will try again tonight. What I want it to do is just work as a 'manual intermittent' i.e. if I switch it on to intermittent, it wipes intermittently. Do I need to switch OFF rain detection in the infotainment system then for ...

Re: Intermittent Wipers DO NOTHING

OK, so have checked the wiper stalk position and settings in the infotainment system. Apart from a solitary random single wipe (literally maybe once or twice in a whole journey), I get nothing at all from intermittent. Off to the dealer for me then...

Re: Intermittent Wipers DO NOTHING

Thanks both, I will check this evening. Bizarrely, left it in intermittent for my drive to work this morning, a run of about 40 mins. Really needed it in light drizzle but it did nothing. Just about arrived at work in blue skies and all of a sudden I got one solitary (and unneeded!) wipe.

Intermittent Wipers DO NOTHING

Hi there,
Anyone else suffering the same problem as me? The intermittent wiper setting literally does nothing, no matter how long I leave it or what setting the little slider is on.
Or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks

Re: List of issues experienced in 4 weeks.

Even on motorways, it's dangerous. My drive to work takes me on a 70mph motorway. One section is very close to a residential road and it picks up the 30mph and brakes automatically every time in the same spot. Not great programming logic there at all.

Re: odometer and trip display

I think you see it on the main dash display before you select a gear and set off. Something there or thereabouts. Yup, it's there when you get in the car before you 'turn it on'. I think it's just a case of changing your expectations. I felt the same - we've all been used to seeing the odometer and...

Re: ID3 when reversing suddenly breaks

I've had this problem multiple times when reverse parking. I'm sure I saw something buried deep in the settings menu that you can disable brake assist while manoeuvring but I'll be buggered if I can find it now! My solution is to just pull forward. Stop and reverse again slowly. Usually works fine o...
