Apologies for the detail below, but I don’t know how to explain my issue without it. Wanting to do a full charge to 100% overnight, I set off today on a 45 mile journey. The battery was shown at 23%, with a 53 mile range remaining. On the face of it, the figures seemed weird to me as I expected...

Scared me today. First thought: what on earth have I hit? Reversing to turn in a virtually empty parking area. At least 15 feet from the nearest object, a wall. Inexplicable - but still scary.

Ah… didn’t appreciate this (silly me). Thank you.

I would certainly miss the convenience things mentioned above - and also a quick check on tyre pressures before I head out (one thing less to do when in the car).

I guess that’s the hassle - in, out, shake it all about. Where to store it? And then my dear wife will put it somewhere ‘tidy’ 😂

👍

Had the R59 update a while ago, but only now used ACC with it. However, one push still changes 5mph and I need to hold and push for 1mph changes. I thought the polarity, as it were, was meant to be reversed with R59. A further visit to the dealers?

I currently have: “Kill the elk and then it’s safe to drive.”

Being 6’ 3”, I have the seat right back and sense that wish to be a bit higher. I recall that someone posted, on a different thread, that they used a booster seat. I would be tempted to follow suit, if it were not for the hassle involved.

I understand that, but I assume you are using your car regularly for reasonable length journeys. My issue is that, for the next 12 weeks, I will be doing a handful of short journeys a week totalling about 15 miles. Given that, I think I will opt for the majority view of charging to 80% as needed...

Having done a 5% to 100% charge in mid-December and a ‘normal’ charge to 100% on New Year’s Day, I find myself in an unusual situation. Basically, until Easter I have no long journeys planned; I expect to do no trips of more than 5 miles and to average well under 100 miles a month. I am aware of...

I ensure my tracks, within a folder, play in the correct order by starting the track number with 01, 02, etc. I do the same with folders, so that they appear in chronological order for a given artist. Something of a labour of love with hundreds of folders, but worth it IMO.

The track listing count does seem a bit odd. My tracking ends at a count of about (it could be exactly) 1000 - even though I have up to almost 3000 tracks on more than one USB. But all tracks are listed in the various folders, sub-folders and sub-sub-folders and all play.

I have 3 adults in the rear at least once a month. Slotting the belts can be difficult, but the centre belt length is fine.

I don’t seem to have a problem with sub-sub folders. But I have a lot of tracks. There is, annoyingly, a limit on the number of tracks per USB. I’m not sure what it is, but something like 3K? I think that means a large capacity USB is unnecessary - and doesn’t get you more tracks. I have 128Gb...
