Weekend bugs
Had a long weekend in Scotland. Several new problems appeared:
On the plus side, I filled up the tank before leaving Glasgow and it was still showing 3/4 full when I arrived home 230 miles later. The VoC app reports that the car did 50.7 mpg for that journey. |
I experienced the issue with the right hand side buttons not working on the steering wheel. I had this within a few days of picking up the car and never experienced it since.
The only current bug that I am aware of is the mpg indicator continually updates, every second and is down at the 1/2mpg mark. When on electric it will change to 199.99 (or something similar). I'm waiting for my service to be due and will update to the latest software |
Funnily enough I had a run up to Oban in August and the car played up most of the way, particularly on the S2 roads north of Glasgow. It kept turning off my adaptive cruise and saying that the radar was blocked. It would then eventually let me turn it back on again miles later.
Maybe it is some sort of electronic warefare against English registered cars 😀 Went into dealer who didnt find the problem but hasnt repeated since. However I now have a new fault of park assist disabled which comes up at least once a day..... |

The car is due its first service next month so unless the BLIS issue gets worse (bearing in mind the rear radar also feeds the collision warning system) I'll wait until then and add the latest problems to the ongoing list.
I suspect the problem is with the left rear radar as the warning indicator in the passenger mirror still lights up during the self-test routine after the ignition is switched on. It's not reporting any problems with the system but it's definitely not working. |
MOD electronic jamming devices?
Lots of hidden hardware in the sea lochs, on the West Coast of Scotland. tem. |
During naval exercises around that area, the accuracy of the civilian GPS signal is deliberately degraded which can lead to wrong location data. The military GPS signal remains (extremely) accurate. A 'notice to mariners' is issued before an exercise to warn of potential issues but it can also affect users on land (obviously).

Mine is in for first service today.
