With the speed limiter set, you can still accelerate through your set speed with a "persuasive" push on the accelerator. Treat it a bit like a kick down on an older style auto-box.

Ian,
You jest!
When did you last get a new car with a full tank? That would cost the dealer £50-60!

Last time I took delivery. And the time before that...

...I tend to make it the final hurdle that will seal the deal, if they want the sale they will give in

Have fun,


Ian.

I would moan at the dealer and ask why you needed to open the fuel filler cap so soon. Given the price of new cars, they could at least have filled it up for you...

Wiggie, a spare in the car would be no help at all if you are locked out of the car. I simply bought four CR2025 batteries from Amazon and replaced the battery in both my keys and both of my wife's.

Traffic jam assist requires Lane assist, dsg gearbox and adaptive cruise control. If you have all three you have the traffic jam assist.

Have fun,


Ian.

Hope everyone has a great Christmas and New Year.

All the best, folks

Colin, No, I did not use the physical key as it was dark, so I could not see which handle end cover to remove (and the book does not make that clear, now that I have checked again). I also had no tools other than the key and nothing with which to protect the paintwork. I was not helped by the batter...

Yesterday the battery in my key died. No warning that it was low, no apparent reduction in operating range. It worked to get me to my destination but when I returned to the car nothing. No response from the car, no red light on the key… Fortunately, I was only about 10 miles from home and so could g...
