Hi all, Apparently this thing needs servicing soon 😄 Looking for recommendations as to where to take it, I'm Honiton / Ilmister kinda area. keen to keep up the online record too. I have 20 days to comply

Haha, glad I'm not the only one Well, I watched it come out but maybe paper jam or just plain old IT issue.

My 245 has power seats both sides, with memory on the drivers side.

Mystery solved! I checked my bank account & that shows £75.59 (I honestly didn't pay any attention when actually stood there at the pump! it just needed filling up) so 75.59 / 1.639 which is 43.1L That all makes a lot more sense although I am 20 quid poorer Only Tesco know who's receipt they provided me with (it came from the pump after requesting a receipt). Right date, time & fuel type wrong amount and cost 🤦‍♂️ Lovely car.. sorry I doubted you 🥰

Clearly there was a fair amount of capacity still remaining when I filled up though in order to only get 27 and a bit back in

JR, no I meant what I wrote, but looks like I thought about it the wrong way round.. I had concluded that maybe I could have squeased in another 6 if I'd have kept trying, but now I've written that down it does seem totally daft 🤦🏽

From the user manual. Assume it's from fuel gauge reading full to brimming the tank

I filled up today expecting a fairly hefty bill given the current world issues.. The fuel light was on, showing 20miles till empty and I filled the tank till the pump shut off. 27.59L You what mate? Tank is supposed to be 50+6 I know I could have kept trying to put more in after that first click (assume the +6 is if you keep going with the pump till it dribbles down the paint work), but I never normally bother doing that so that means the tank still has at least 22L still in it, yet the gauge was telling me close to nothing left and the range pestering me to find a filling station. So wasn't a huge expense day after all - a bonus of sorts Maybe Tesco sell very dense fuel 😁 Is this level of fuel gauge mediocrity normal?

I get exactly the same, give up trying now. I imagine ultimately it's not worth the effort in spending a third day scratching my head.

Ohhh, that pipe! 🤣

Cabin heater matrix feed or return maybe? Does it go through the bulkhead?

@encephalopathy.. seen this on loads of different cars before without understanding what it was .. Just looks like faulty fog lights to me 🤭. I was enquiring about the main been feature visible in the first video shared by @langers2k

@langers2k Spesh thanks for annotating those screen grabs.. Not sure I would have clocked the effect in the video without it I don't think

Thankyou both. Yes that really is subtle, I'd have to have been totally not concentrating on where I was going to have noticed that which is probably a good thing 🤣 It's not like I can't see with these lights, best I've ever had. Only complaint is the activation speed of the highbeam on auto (hba), imo is too scary in our twisty country lanes, so have to use my left hand like a normal person 😅 Cheers!

So I won't see them when stationary? (LOW speed not NO speed) I've been turning the steering wheel and getting out to check. Maybe that's why I'm convinced nothing is happening in the main cluster. I agree, this is one adaptation I probably won't be doing. Do all FL VRS have LED clusters then? Thanks

Ummm, same question.. sorry (notsorry) for dragging this thread back up. facelift 245 vrs nothing happening in main light cluster for cornering.

Hi all. I have this option to set when I change individual mode under vRS button but definitely don't see any cornering light activity. VRS mode > individual > change > Dyn. Cornering light > sport / eco / normal I get nothing regardless of the driving mode setting. My lights are set to left hand side traffic and dial is set to auto. Did all 245 MY18 come with this as standard? I'm not even sure what lights I have, just that they are bright 🤣 Any help appreciated, cheers

Successfully updated (thanks pab!) And cleared resulting error check code😁 Hehe, what's next....

Maybe I'm thick but struggled a fair bit with various instructions getting this particular one to work so thought I'd write my own and share whilst it was still fresh in my mind. My vehicle is a late 2017 FL 245 vRS estate fitted with Amundsen MIB2 (I think) 5Q0035874C S/W-0468 I has previously activated HBA & already had lane assist Tested so far, under vehicle settings I can enable disable TSR and enable over speed warning and set the amount over the speed I want the warning to occur. (2 new options and a slider) Also Trailer recognition and options are new to me I think. Instrument cluster display shows traffic sign top centre. navigation direction arrow moves to bottom right. This disappears if you choose the driving information variable display. Main navigation gets a speed sign, dunno if that's new cant remember. I do get a pop up warning if I exceed the selected over the limit limit, presume I'll get an auditable tone with different option selected. Yet to have a proper drive with it so will report back when I have if anything isn't working as it should (ref page 185 Owner's manual) This is all definitely just from Nav map data so far as it hasn't 'clapped eyes' on a real road sign yet Step 1.

Hello @pab567 Are there any software updates for my system or do I have the latest already? DPN 5Q0035874C Hardware:H41 SW VER 0468 Thankyou

In the mean time, I had some fun with decoding the vin, couldn't find any info on the engine code but digging around, pretty sure it's correct.
