I wish I could help but I can’t, sorry…

Good to hear! Thanks for adding to the story! Have a good trip to Helsinki! Cheers!

Hi linni Until this thread I had no idea that the vehicle required coding after a battery change. You learn something new every day! Cheers!

Hi Mike. Glad you have an answer now! The dealer provided the battery under warranty, so I’m afraid I don’t know how much it cost. I would go for the battery with the best warranty if it were me. I’m sure others here will have opinions on the best brands… Best of luck!

Sounds that way! Good luck and I hope a new battery sorts it, like it did on mine. All the best!

Ahh, thanks, Adamo! The dealer sorted it for me…apparently the cable from the button had come off. Imwas wondering how they got to it, so your answer is probably how! Appreciate the info as I suspect it could happen again! Cheers G

Ok, an update! From the dealer: when the battery goes below 80% charge, the vehicle automatically turns off comfort settings and goes into protective mode, disabling the ACC. My battery was at 70%. the dealer fitted a new battery and all is well! Cheers!

Thanks Adamo, appreciated! The car is back with the dealer at present, and this is on the list for them to look at. If they can’t sort it, I’ll follow the advice here and maybe get a replacement lid, if I can find one. Cheers!

So, same issue this morning and I tried the horn, too. Geuss what - it didn’t work, as per others’ experiences! What a strange little glitch! I’m sure the dealer will learn something here! Cheers! G

Hi Tom Many thanks for that! A picture is emerging! I will try it tomorrow and if the ACC doesn’t come on, I’ll see if the horn is also not working. Looks like I’ll have some useful feedack for the main dealer when it goes back! Appreciate you joining this thread and adding to the story. Cheers Buddy! Graham

Thanks Mark Yes, that’s exactly it! I’ve narrowed it down to first thing in the morning. I also briefly saw a message saying that ACC was disabled. After turning off and on again it’s fine. Not tried the horn… If I hadn’t had the car for such a short time, I’d go for a battery replacement myself but as it came from an Approved dealer as an Approved Vehicle, I’m hoping they will go down that route for me at their expense. I’m sure it’s a battery condition thing… Thanks for dropping by and adding to the story! Cheers Graham

Hi everyone. Thanks for looking. The top glovebox is stuck down. The button is depressed (bit like I am) and won’t go in any further. I’ve pushed, pulled and whacked the glovebox cover, with no luck so far. Does anyone have any ideas how to release it, please? Thanks in anticipation. Graham

Thanks Alan. I’m pretty convinced it’s a voltage thing. Like you say, probably just a glitch! cheers!

Thanks Alan. Sounds exactly the same thing! If I get an answer from the dealer, I’ll post it here so you can see it. Cheers!

Hi everyone. Every so often my ACC is just not available; no little indicators on the dash and no reaction to its control stalk. It seems to be on the first use of the day, so I was wondering if it was being affected by battery condition. I had that checked today and it’s at 71%, which the guy from Halfrauds said was ok. I’ve only had the car a couple of weeks and it’s going back to the dealer to be checked but they can’t fit me in until end February! Does anyone have any ideas or similar experiences? Thanks for looking. Graham
