Not experienced it but if at knee level, could it be an over active cooling of the phone pad - every time I take my iPhone Air out it is very cold !

I think my Bose system has developed a slight hissing sound. I’ve seen on websites (and ChatGPT) that this is known. Advice is to pull the fuse to reset. I don’t fancy doing that, nor taking it to the dealers. Has anybody experienced the hiss and any idea how to resolve it ?

The location is provided in My Porsche and you can set a ‘push notification’ if the car leaves a defined area. How reliable these would be with experienced thieves using jammers etc I wouldn’t like to rely on them. The current version of the tracker is also an immobiliser. Plus, the police are...

I've never been asked for a pin or password. They ask the reg, address and obviously know the mobile. I haven't received a call with an 'alarm' since having the latest version of tracker, as you can't drive without a fob. They may ask for that now with the new trackers.

It’s probably essential if you have a lease /HP / PCP with a replacement value more than 100% in the initial year. I was referring to a car bought without finance.

Most insurers provide a new replacement car if yours is written off or stolen in the first year. NFU did cover the same for 2 years so GAP not really necessary.

Yes and very good cover - dealer arranged. £ 799 for 3 years coverage is :-

I had a PHEV Range Rover - in circa 8,000 mostly local driving miles it averaged 85 mpg. Before that I had one of the early Merc PHEV (C350e) - it had a mode where you could charge the battery using the ICE but the manual said this was mainly for charging the battery if you were entering an EV...

And no doubt driving it this time next week. Hope all goes well.

Today in the Sunday Times Jeremy Clarkson reviews the Lotus Eletre X SUV. The combined range is 746 miles. Which, for a car with 939 brake horsepower on tap, is mind-boggling. The car is fitted with a turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol-powered generator that can be used to charge the batteries if...

I think buying a ‘prestige’ car is about far more than price. If it was, then we would be on the fake Range Rover Jaecoo forum. If you prefer the looks of the Beemer and are not looking for the driving characteristics of a Porsche then the IX5 is for you. I far prefer the looks of my Coupe and...

I’ve only just noticed that the steering wheel heating comes on with the seat heating. The manual says it should but I never noticed it before the recent colder weather.

Sorry I can’t help on that. I added the car whilst it was being built with no prob - early cars couldn’t get TMD so I hoped that may have overcome it. When I put the vin I even got a graphic of the correct colour car.

The 3D does have the kerb view - from the online manual. The camera view options include Surround View, Panorama view, Side view, 3D view, and Transparent front bonnet view (equipment-dependent). These views are accessible via the central display and provide visual assistance for parking and...

I’m using a iPhone Air running IOS 27 and have no probs with CarPlay. Luminated67 I don’t suppose you use Spotify or Apple Music do you ? I use both and have widgets to use the in-car systems rather than my phone - only because it’s more convenient. I have 5g / 4g on my phone from EE and often...

Is this problem only on the SUV due to the electric seat back lowering ? Is it also because the SUV rear seats can be electrically moved forward and back - do the rear seats need to be moved to the rear before lowering. I haven’t noticed the issue on my Coupe with the manual seats. The rear...

I initially made the mistake of treating the 'square' as a button and prod it. I then saw a video showing just placing the hand over the 'square' - worked every time since.

The plot thickens. I just compared the UK & US configurations. For drive assist they are different - even for current '2027' models. The UK make no mention of the US addition of the Hands Free optional service. So in the UK there seems to be no difference in Hands Free between 2026 or 2027. The...

Thanks for the research. So 2027 models may get that and the massage seats option. Maybe I should have waited !
