I'm seriously considering getting some Alpine SatNav. However someone said that a fellow Briskodian had it and hated it - anyone got experience of the Alpine system?

For anyone interested I've found a good review of the Apline screen/head unit on SCN http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=64906&highlight=alpine+satnav

Problem with in built (OEM or after market) is that updating for important things such as cameras can be non-existent. Freestanding (whether propriotory or PDA based) are much easier to update for the latest info. I get all the camera positions downloaded FOC for example.

The PDA option is there, but I want to have a nice big screen if possible. A PDA with an output I could use on a cheap TFT screen would be an option.

Airbag error, what can reset it?

Airbag error, what can reset it?

rik1254 · 22 October, 20241 yr

During my hardwire dash cam install, I removed the trim which holds the passenger airbag switch and unplugged it. Now (unsurprisingly) I have an airbag error on the dash. I’ve cycled the ignition a few times in hopes that would reset it, I also tried enabling and disabling the airbag with the key, still no joy. Is this something I can reset at home? I’m hoping something like ODBeleven free plan can do it, but it’s difficult finding out what the free plan can actually do.

Creaking front-end

travs · 6 July6 Jul

History is that since the coilovers were done, the front-left top mount has aways creaked on turning; classic top mount sound of juddering movement. I've tried rotating the spring a little in case that's a difference but I need to do try some more just to make sure I haven't forgotten anything. In the meantime, the front right has developed a creak which is different. It's a heavier creaky rubber feel to it which is triggered on minor movement/weight shift. Going over speedbumps obviously makes

Has anybody please found some sensibly priced towing mirrors that fit properly? I have some rubber strap jobs but don't like the risk of marking the mirror. Thanks

Panoramic sunroof rust

MateuszSkodziarz · 7 March7 Mar

Hi everyone! I have an urgent rust problem near the panoramic roof seal. So far, there's no leak. I plan to take the car to a body shop shortly, where the rust will be sanded off and the entire roof will be repainted. The seal will, of course, be replaced with a new, original one. The body shop told me that the repair might not be effective, meaning the problem might recur after some time due to moisture, which could be getting under the seal's mounting due to a design flaw. Has anyone else had

Hi, yesterday morning I drove up to Stafford from Exmoor no issues whatsoever, however this morning driving back with my elderly mum on board we broke down at Bridgwater, as I was driving up the off slip the engine appeared to flutter slightly for a couple of seconds then all seemed fine, I assumed it was possibly the road surface, however got about 1 mile off the motorway and the EPC light came on and also the engine light and it was popping and spluttering so I rolled off the road and switched
