  1. Thanks for replying. I think I've found it now in Route Guidance. I'll have to break the speed limit by 10% to find out.
  2. Thanks, Seasider. Agree. I would expect it to come under Driver Assist, but I think I've found it under Navigation, Route Guidance, Road Signs. I set it up 3 years ago when I bought the car and should have made a note of how I did it. This all resulted from the Info Centre constantly rebooting and after the dealer had corrected it with a software update a few features were wiped out, including this one.
  3. Thank you sussamb and Rooted for responding. Page 57 in my manual is about telephone set up so perhaps we have different versions. Page 51 is about speed limits but I took that to be setting the safe maximum speed of the vehicle. Having scoured the manual there is set up advice on page 93 for setting a warning if you, say, go over 30, but oddly there is no reference to this in the index. I will give that a go. Thanks both for your help.
  4. I had set the speed limit warning so that it beeped if I exceeded the speed limit (not that I ever did of course!) However after having a dealer software update it has disappeared and I cannot find any way of resetting it. Any suggestions before I ask the dealer?
  5. I intended posting an update as people were good enough to offer solutions. Car was booked into main dealer with a few weeks wait as they were short of technicians, and then the day before it was postponed because their server had gone down. I'll repost when it's sorted out. In the meantime I've stuck my reliable old Garmin to the windscreen.
  6. Thanks, sussamb, I won't try a reset yet as it's booked in under warranty but good to bear in mind for later. Also thanks, skoda1982, that's worth a try also. Having looked further down the forum I see that someone else had flagged up the same issue in Dec 22.
  7. Has anyone else come across this? The Amundsen infotainment system on my 70plate Kamiq has started switching off and then back on again virtually every 10 minutes. Usually it picks up where it left off, though not always. Very annoying on a long journey, especially when I need the satnav. Fortunately still in warranty. Booked in with dealer, but their server is down so a bit of a wait until they can look at it.
  8. Thought I'd keep you updated as you were good enough to respond. Car was transported to local independant garage that I use regularly. Diagnostic test didn't reveal much. Plugs and coils replaced and it now seems to be fine so fingers crossed. I know of another Rapid that went into limp mode, and a VW that did the same, though I don't know the outcome of those.
  9. Interesting! it had a replacement coil a couple of months back.
  10. 1.4 DSG 2013 Petrol Not misfuelled or out of fuel. Seemed to go into limp mode from what she described. Breakdown driver was able to drive it onto breakdown truck but advised against trying to drive home. M42 back to Cheltenham. Car will be transported back next week. Garage will solve the problem, but as a previous Rapid owner I'm interested to know what might be the cause. Thanks for such a prompt response!
  11. My daughter's Rapid DSG suffered complete loss of power on the motorway so car has been towed to garage. Just enough power to limp to emergency layby. Anyone got any suggestions about the possible cause?
  12. We used to get an effect in our Rapid which caused a mild but annoying throbbing in our ears. Unable to track it down. Have now traded it in for a new 1.5 Kamiq and haven't had any trouble at all. Some theories on the Rapid forum were adjustment of the tailgate, the parcel shelf vibrating, tyres...... Worth having a look at the Rapid owners' forum. Dealer claimed they'd never come across it.

    Sat Nav

    It took me a while to get used to the Satnav, and what is a bit irritating is the mispronunciation. Lane is Layin, Way is Way-e and Road is wierdly Road-good. Does anyone else find this?
  14. Replying to Neil: Argos SanDisk Ultra Dual drive USB 3.1 Type C 32GB £13.99 Cat No. 769/9476 or 64GB Cat No. 784/5251 £22.99 It has Type C one end, which fits the car without needing the adapter, and the older USB on the other end, which plugs into my PC. It's on a sliding mechanism so the unused connection is hidden. Neat little gadget. I copied and pasted itunes to it and it works a treat.
  15. I have a Kamiq but I assume the system is much the same. My ipod touch wouldn't connect to the car but I bought a double-ended USB stick from Argos USB-c one end and older connection for PC other end. I copied itunes straight onto the stick and it works perfectly. Hope that helps.
