hi - the text was in english and it seriously sounded like a poor impression of someone from the netherlands - setting on the car is english - interestingly when i asked the car to read it there was a considerable delay before reading it out - usually is very rapid - i’m losing confidence day by day with this car as whilst it’s amusing are the other systems of the car affected ? safety features etc - tried to replicate it and it’s fine nowMoss wrote: ↑Sat Apr 03, 2021 3:47 pmWhat was the text you received ?billybobb2019 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 03, 2021 3:01 pm update: for days now the stop start wasn’t working but on a short run to the shops low and behold it began to work again but the strangest thing - i received a text asked the car to read it and i’m honestly not joking it read it back in a dutch accent ! wife was with me otherwise i’d have thought i was tripping!
What do you mean by « a dutch accent » ?
What is the system language of your car ? (press Settings in the top view of the centre display, go to System and then to System Languages and Units, and select System Language)

Strange story !
My general advice is : if and when – for any reason - you have no confidence in a car, get rid of it as soon as you can, and buy or lease a different one. On top of the fact that driving whatever car you have no confidence in is very often dangerous, life simply is too short to linger in a distressing situation.
