I've had trouble with it too. Works fine sometimes but cuts out, then comes back, sometimes won't start at all. I'll give this a try. Android auto, 40% of the time, it works every time.

Glad it's not just me! My old vw was pretty good and an old volvo that was completely customisable was useful. Got half the mg windscreen blocked by a big black plastic box for these things that are crap 😂

Anyone else think that the auto wipers are actually not very auto at all? On intermittent, they're intermittent, Turn the little ring thingy for auto rain sensitivity and they're just on, none of the three settings seem to make a difference, all the auto setting does is make the wipers come on...

Yeah you could use something like a 3kw immersion timer but granny take long time do her thing!

App icons along the bottom of the screen slide left revealing a power off button for the head unit. Not sure if that's what you're getting at though as it does the whole unit not just radio.

I'm waiting for a third party moulded plastic tray to replace the cover, maybe with a lid too, Checking ali express but there's nothing coming from over there so far and the i5 has been out a while.

Yeah I think I'll have to, it'll be a pain when I get to the end of this finance agreement if nothing else, they probably say it isn't fair wear and tear or something and it'll end up costing me double for the dealer to fix it. And it is nice to know there aren't these little niggles, still...

Contactors and timers in the consumer unit if you get an electrician in, you can then set it to come on off peak hours, or a WiFi timer at 40 amp rated off AliExpress if you're feeling brave, probably still need the electrician though...

I know, it's local place that quoted the £300 and it isn't the end of the world just a car bumper... But I really could have done without! I'm sure it'll be a pain when the pcp term is up too, unless I keep it longer but I'm not sure about that yet.

Yup, £300...

I've sent pictures to a company for a ruff guide but haven't heard back yet, been working all week so not had a chance to go anywhere but it is going to be a ball ache!

I think it'd be pretty bad compared to c class, golf etc' it's tinny and flimsy feeling through and through...but it is cheap though.

They told me cars come with a certain amount of tint/uv protection so anything you put on means it's adding to that and making it illegal. That was global tint. Maybe he just couldn't be bothered.

Nice! I have mine done but the guy said anything they do on the front would invalidate insurance as it was illegal to tint the fronts, I left the fronts alone but wanted them done really for summer sun on those two days in june.

Think the 2022 is just a nice looking face lift rather than an all new setup with new tech and features...
