I went with keeping the aim high on basis of doing a lot of motorway miles and there’s nothing worse than the spray not reaching the windscreen at higher speeds.

Yep, that about sums it up 😳

Unlucky! Had a close shave myself a few days ago - did an overtake on two cars (std carriageway, 50mph limit) only to discover the front one was an unmarked car that instantly lit up like a Christmas tree and pulled me over for a stiff talking-to 🧐🤬🤣

Looks really good. Also like the idea of fitting a front/rear dash cam which largely requires the same bits to be pulled apart and can share same cable route etc, so makes good sense to do in one hit. Another one to go on the to-do list 🧐👍

Which dealer did it come from? Not seen version 1300 R07 installed on a later Trophy. You need to challenge them on it in the first instance. Mine came with R12 which was current at the time of manufacture (March ‘23) Have since updated to R17 myself as purchasing dealer was both useless and...

Would be interesting to see if just the blade could be ordered and for how much. May be possible/cost effective to mix ‘n match i.e. blade from dealer and fob from elsewhere. Anyone with SIPS/VDS3 access can do the programming part, I believe.

Roll on the day when the car’s software will force drivers back to the inside lane instead of sitting in the middle of nowhere, not specifically overtaking, and totally oblivious to the faster traffic they’re holding up 🤬

Noticed one my wheels was showing signs of this when washing last weekend - will investigate further…

Hahaha, called-in to the Ikea one on Saturday - a few cars using the Tesla chargers but Ionity bays completely empty! Can't imagine that the £0.18/kWh difference in price had anything to do with it....

This occurs from car using regen for braking over applying the mechanical brakes and disks subsequently rusting up through lack of use. Fix is to regularly charge to 100%, set regen to 1 and find a good hill to run down that will allow for heavy braking with minimal regen effect - cleans up the...

What’s the manufacturing date - normally found on A4 sheet in glove box or if leased/PCP, then on a tag attached to rear left/underside of the parcel shelf?

It’s odd… yes, you don’t consider that you use the power very often, whilst over time the pace becomes normalised and everything else just seems slow! 🧐🤣🤣

Can be programmed via SIPS/VDS3 using VNCI dongle: https://www.obd2sales.com/product/vnci-vdi3-diagnostic-interface/

Haven’t ever paid much attention to the weather app on mine but just noticed it’s not displaying any data - is that a R63 specific thing? Infotainment update was installed correctly using both USB and SIPS.

Have this in mine (70x50x52cm) - has to be positioned dead centre, with floor in low position, so not much room for anything else, and boot just shuts over it. MOOL Lightweight Fabric Pet Carrier Crate with Fleece Mat and Food Bag, Black Amazon.co.uk
