Ability to change font and size i.e. Get rid of the stupid 8's and make the important data bigger!
You can do that in the settings so that rear defrost comes on when front defrost is activated. (Mine's doing it right now)Hi, i just joined. I would like to see a full defrost mode using the app. Something that had the heated rear window on as well as the windscreen so that when you went out to the car it was about ready the drive away. I don't think it can do this at the moment.
Hi, that's great. Can you guide me through the steps on how to do this please as i can't see anything in the app that switches on the rear heated window.You can do that in the settings so that rear defrost comes on when front defrost is activated. (Mine's doing it right now)
You have to do it in the car. I found it by accident when I was looking at all the sub menus when I first had the car. I'll see if I can find it again and post for you.Hi, that's great.

Found it. Press the HVAC button to get the HVAC screen up, press the gear icon bottom right and the option is in there.Ok thanks. I will have a look tonight as well and maybe stumble across it.
Hi, found the sub menu you mentioned and the rear defrost was already on by default. Are you saying that this method works via the phone app or do you need to go to the car to apply this?

Hi, i notice in this picture which i assume is a screen capture of your phone that you have 'text messages' included. My phone's bluetooth only has 'calls', 'Audio' and 'Contact Access' Do i need to update something to include the text message option? Does this read out/reply your text messages like it does on my wife's car? Any help appreciated.You don't need Bluetooth music for this
On your phones Bluetooth find the car then click on the cog(if no cog it can be an (i) )then switch off media audio View attachment 14575
Yes that's the screen with most of the info you want. It's just a shame it's a total mess of varying fonts, has terrible layout plus the long trip info that you can't hide whilst driving.My favourite screen is the one mkw ie 1s left press it stays lock on that screen until you cross over a line over 35mph flashes back to the original screen but it goes back to the screen I want

Yes both methods work but neither switches on the heated rear screen or the wing mirrors (AFAICS) which means you need to do this manually once in the car. Not a big deal but it does add time to setting off.Or just set AC to like 24+ and use remote HVAC the whole car defrost then roof and all
