I'm enjoying my new ride. Only had him (yes, definitely a him!) for a week but getting used to it.

A few odd things - I was playing tunes from a usb stick - with a converter and we noticed that the tempo would change. I know you can cause the volume to change with respect to the speed but tempo??

Another one - I select lots of settings but on returning to the car the next time, they have gone back ....e.g. lane departure, nice to be warned but not assisted. I had to avoid a warning triangle (mobile works ahead) and the car tried to stop me.
I switched it to warning only but the next day it reverted. Maybe I have to long press to "save" it?
The same thing happens with ERS.

Otherwise it's great. Tried the crab parking. Worked a treat. Tried the super fast charger - got 108kW but at over 80p/kWh I won't be using that often.

I think that is standard with these ‘safety’ features.

Have you put an SD card in to record the video? If so can you tell us what it records. That is just front or does it include rear and/or 360 deg?
