    Radio

    I have the same issue, FM is always switching back to DAB. Shorting or disconnecting the DAB antenna in the DAB module will probably generate some warning though so we need to find a smarter solution than that. Any RF guys here that could assist in that? Goal : disable any DAB reception (non...

    Your car should make some noise

    Looking at it, the system seems to have a pedestrian alert module which is hardwired to a speaker in the bottom front side of the car. ( all well hidden, not easy to access) You can locate that when driving slowly in reverse, then it sounds clearly. Ill try to get a picture of that.

    Downgrade wireless charger

    I dont like things connected when not needed. So I decided to disconnect the wireless charger. (on your own risk of course) Really easy to do : 1) Pull out the R/N/D knob (yes just like that, with a bit force) 2) Pry the mid console along the edges (not the black part but in the middle of the...
