Re: Auto-hold and parking brake

Don't use mine - it's too jerky.
If one is able to do good hill starts and apply / release park brake manually ( as in the old days) then it seems to be a superfluous item.

Re: Unusual screenwash consumption

Washers spray out copious quantity.
Perhaps press button for shorter time

Heater fan blowing very hot air, not adjustable.

Heater fan constantly blew hot air for 20 mile drive no matter what temperature was set
Had to switch off heating / AC system and open windows.

The problem self rectified after car parked overnight. ????
Suspect an electronic / software glitch.

Re: High oil level

ps the same is true of some diesels with a manual dipstick.
The electronic guage is not misreading, nor temperamental.
It's just that a manual dipstick does not " tell" you.

Re: High oil level

Yes, have had the high oil level issue, explanations, oil change, service.
Noticed level after last dealer service was only half way along the bar graph.
Conclusion I reached was not to add oil unnless / until bar graph display is at ( or nearly at) left hand " low" end.
