  1. I am changing my dashcam for one which takes its power from the USB socket which I believe is ignition controlled. Please advise if this is wrong.
  2. I thought Stanley Unwin was dead !
  3. Corrosion and discolouration evident already. Disappointing to say the least.
  4. Synchronising done - now working as normal.
  5. Battery replaced but still not working. Will have to try the synchronising procedure.
  6. Mine has the CR2025 which is a bit thinner I think.
  7. I've had my car since late November and today the fob stopped working - had to use the spare to lock the car. Not very good battery life seeing as I had an Insignia for three years and never had to replace the battery.
  8. Did you have any trouble getting the suction mount to attach to the shaded area of the windscreen ?
  9. Mine is called Grace as the first two registration letters are WG. Cricket fans will understand.
  10. Only if the car self-brakes. If you manually apply the brakes then the ACC is cancelled and the lever must be pulled back to resume its previous setting.
  11. It operates within a set of fixed parameters as the following link explains.http://www.myturbodiesel.com/wiki/vw-dsg-direct-shift-gear-transmission-and-audi-stronic-faq/
  12. You must be one of the very few to actually put a car in your garage. Seems strange because I thought they were for washing machines, bikes, pushchairs, home brewing equipment and all sorts of crap that should be taken to the dump. I guess it takes all sorts - live and let live.
  13. Haven't yet tried the sport setting but yesterday i put it in 'Economy' mode and when I started the car today it was still in E mode. I don't like the E mode as pick up is too slow and the freewheel makes it feel like you have no control.
