It wouldnt be hard to do or maintain given the software will have the functionality anyway and the only difference is if it defaults on for each new drive. Car simply has to check the production number in the vin is above a certain value.

That is probably radiant heat from the glass. The AC can quickly cool all of the air in the cabin down, but the body and glass will remain hot for a lot longer as it takes time for the cooler cabin air to transfer the heat out of the glass and metal. Same way the steering wheel will be hot to...

Same, had nothing from them at all.

Don’t really need PWS, my brakes squeal enough through lack of use 😃

And so Notateslaapp can scrape it all and still get it wrong.

Well that’s a terrible sign. Should be a a warning (triangle) as it not an instruction until you actually hit the speed restriction. On the railway an advance warning indicator is a completely different shape from a speed restriction sign.

Kids around here love using the 20 signs at the ends of roads as target practice when playing football, so more than half of them are facing the faster road in one direction. Car dutifully spots them all and updates the speed limit but only occasionally complains I’m going too fast thankfully.

I’m still gutted my car can’t run Vampire Survivors. That’s hardly a graphically intensive title but for some reason requires a Ryzen.

Or just don’t leave your (newer) fob on the washing machine or near a cat. Fob not moving = fob not transmitting.

Also, when was the 294 figure seen? It’s still pretty chilly overnight and the battery takes a long time to warm up via ambient temperatures, so you might be comparing a BMS estimate based on weeks of cold overnight temps vs a few weeks of warm weather.

Database Admin/Engineer. I sit in the basement and roll my eyes when Brenda from Finance gets herself confused with what year it is. Again.

That's generally how software companies and large corporate IT teams release software updates, normally known as Rings or Waves. Can be wildly different, but how we do it: Ring 0 = Developers, testers, admins Ring 1 = QA testers, early adopters Ring 2 = Small group of 'normal' everyday users...

What they should do is charge you for the repairs but knock it off the extended warranty price when it does become available. Probably won’t be that sensible though.

You’re in the wrong place, this is the UK forum.

Autopilot also gets "updates" via map/route changes. Plenty of tales of weird behaviour in the same location caused by dodgy map info that suddenly goes away when the route is fixed. And disabling radar fixed a very reproducable bit of phantom breaking I had. Pretty sure it was a tree and steep...
