Awesome - thanks all! That USB-C is perfect as it powers off after a few minutes. Works for me! I'll use a USB condom so I don't have any data connection and it saves having to select the boot mode for the dashcam.

I've been having recent trouble powering my dashcam via the cigarette lighter. Usually a bit of fiddling would sort it out, twist it one way or another to get it to work. Now it's only intermittently connecting, like 1-2 seconds no matter what way I turn it. I can power it via the usb-c but...

I wasn't impressed by the auto high beam after being spoiled with matrix led lights in my last ev so I opted for manual. Might have been the software but might try auto again....Thanks. Good idea about the elastic band!

I've twice now accidentally knocked off my headlights when toggling high beam via the stalk. I normally use the front of my fingers to knock the stalk forward but find I sometimes catch the automatic headlight toggle. Do people use their fingertips on the end of the stalk only or are just more...

Is there any way to silence the seat belt warning when carrying builders provider products that weigh a bit in the rear / front passenger seat. The chime gets annoying after the first hour. Can probably get a fake belt clip and this is only for this scenario, never with real people. I can leave...

ouch - will have a word with the Garage then, hope spares aren't weeks away!!

Thanks. I'll have to see if I can get the arm out - it snags on the plastic surround, then clean out the shards of glass to get a good contact surface.....

From outside it appears there's a second layer of laminate bonded to the front windscreen and this is what sheared off.

I was wrestling a large box into the front passenger seat and knocked off the rear view mirror. Thought it would just hop back into the ball but with too much force I broke the arm / mount. Not much to it behind the scenes, heard glass crunch. Not that sturdy IMO. Oh well. Anyone had this...

The App kept rejecting my password, used the same for the last few months - had a ! in it - had to reset and change, rejecting new one with ! in it, removed the ! and it worked. Talk about unsecure!! No special characters at all now? Just make it longer I guess!!

right two stock tyres lost traction and I started fish tailing on an onramp to a motorway at higher speeds while it was dry out. Scared me enough to replace with crossclimate 2's and no issues since and feels a lot happier in wet too. Only 5 months old. Tracking was off from the factory too!

Decided to pull the trigger on 4 x new Michelin CrossClimate 2 tyres and see how they fare. Will go easy with the foot in the meantime!!!

It was warm enough around 12°C. Might have been something on the surface itself I couldn't see all right. I'm considering new tyres just for my own confidence but might hold off a while longer and see. The car feels rock solid except when it doesn't! Thanks everyone!

Had a scare yesterday, coming down an onto a motorway ramp and accelerating up to merge at 70mph with a slight left turning motion. Before I could merge the right hand side of the car lost traction and started fish tailing. It was dry, just a slight turning motion on the wheel but it gave me a...

The brake pedal was my out and worked fine. That left hand steering wheel button was the issue. Was able to get it turned off by using the main console and disabling the whole ACC/traffic assist system until I had a chance to get home and review. Good idea about setting the minimum speed so I...
