  1. Back to the OP - my understanding of the question (law aside) is can you disable the chime if someone puts a bag in the middle seat and the sensors interpret it as a person. I sometimes find the same thing if carrying stuff in back seat when boot is full.
  2. The Nextbase rear camera is powered via the front one (I have a 422GW) so USB-C would need to be enough for both. I have hard-wired mine into the fuse box under the glovebox - not a complex task. Took me about an hour to do it tidily.
  3. Not VC but Waze does work with heads-up display...albeit badly !
  4. Hmm - never noticed that as I use a different view BUT it does look weird !
  5. Westfalia detachable fitted by PF Jones in Wigan. Standard bumper / valance as the Maxton I bought doesn't have enough clearance between it & towbar (standard is ~70mm, Maxton is ~30mm). When you say 'sports bumper' do you mean an aftermarket fitted one - if so, unlikely any towbar will fit and give ample clearance.
  6. Where can you access the list of trips as I cannot see anywhere that lists my fuel consumption either on the app (Android) or website. Ignore - just found it on the website 🙃
  7. FYI - you don't need to have the ignition switched on. You can simply switch the head unit on by itself - that way, you don't have any systems active / drawing power. But do not open the door during update as that may switch the unit off. Personally, I have found 1969 to load faster and (so far) I haven't had any issues where the media player shows a black screen and that happened to me on pretty much every drive on 1941.
  8. Just manually updated from 1941 to 1969. Reason why - 1941 still 100% stable with me with the 'media' player screen often being blank, not receiving WhatsApp messages on the screen and losing the haptic / click feedback from screen. Haven't fully tested but what I can say is the time from engine switch on to audio playing; 1941 - 21.4 seconds 1969 - 8.3 seconds Had the usual squeaky bum on phase 2 when it appeared to have hung !
  9. Product info - https://www.maxtondesign.co.uk/body-kits/skoda/skoda-octavia/skoda-octavia-mk4-rs/rear-valance-skoda-octavia-rs-mk4-2020- Bought this last year to fit to my estate but only gotten around to dealing with it. However, it's incompatible with my towbar (only 30mm from tow ball to valance, should be 70mm) so of no use to me. Package has been opened but only to 'offer' it up to the car to check - this does have the cut-out for a towbar, just that mine has too short a reach. Cost new is £174 plus £15 postage - I'm open to sensible offers. Please DM if you are interested. Admin - if selling in this manner is not permitted, please delete post
  10. Many thanks - so this (https://www.halfords.com/motoring/engine-oils-and-fluids/brake-clutch-fluid/comma-dot-4-esp-brake-fluid-1l-124432.html) would be good to use ? Is there any real difference between 'budget' and 'premium' fluids (I'm guessing not as long as they comply to the same DOT4 ESP standard).
  11. At a recent check, it was noted that brake fluid level was low and should be topped up. When I look at the manual to make sure I get the right stuff, I'm told; "The brake fluid must comply with standard VW 501 14 . This standard complies with the requirements of the FMVSS 116 DOT4 standard." Does this mean that as long as the fluid is DOT4 compliant then it can be used. Or is the VW 501 14 something different. Thanks in advance.
  12. Try making the Waze / Maps view larger (press on it) then try the re-arrange button. That usually works for me.
  13. OnePlus 10 Pro running Android 14 (NE2215_14.0.0.500(EX01)) I've also noticed that in the last few days (??), messages (WhatsApp / SMS) don't appear in Android Auto meaning I don't see these until I have finished my drive. Not great when the message is something like "don't bother driving the 2 hours to get here, too wet to play golf".
