    Lane departure warning system reacts incorrectly

    It is a nightmare in Cornwall and Wales. You can switch it off, but it switches itself back on every time you turn the car off. The dealer has raised it, but apparently, it is a "safety feature" (not my view!!) and there are no plans to make it user-definable.

    Android Auto and Google Pixel 7 Pro connecting

    I had this problem and someone recommended this. I have no idea why ADDING a connector to the chain works, but it did for me. Regards Paul. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09MRYH52V/ref=twister_B0BLZ79QQF?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

    A NOT SO short update on our British Gas Hive EV charger installation.

    British Gas Hive are a total joke. Ordered mine 6 months before the car arrived. A similar run-around. 12 months after the car arrived I am still using the granny charger! To be honest that covers my usage so I have stopped chasing as I found I don't need to spend £700 for a faster charger.

    Android connection cable drops out frequently

    I thought "What a rubbish reply, how can adding parts fix the issue" but I bought a cheap one from Amazon and THANKS BigSpottyCat - no issue since (and several trips completed). Everybody else, thanks for your input - great to learn new things.

    Yes, just three touches Every. Single. Time. You. Restart. The. Car!! Stop twice = 9 touches (if you remember before you set off).

    Android connection cable drops out frequently

    I like Google Waze as a navigator so connected my Galaxy s20 to my MG4 Trophy and things worked well for a few miles. Then the connection was lost. Pulling the USB out and replugging (easier than messing with the phone end when driving) restores the data for another few miles. Some research...

    Charge won't stop at 80 percent

    Due to a rubbish home supplier, I am currently restricted to the Granny charger. I have this set to charge from midnight to 05:00 (the cheap rate of 9.4p/KWh) and charge to 100% BUT I know 5 hours gets me about 20% of the charge so I simply wait until I am below 60% to plug in. If I am at 40% I...
