My SOC was 30% today and it’s cold outside (1 degree C) and mine didn’t feel as sprightly as usual. Wasn’t all down to traction, or lack of, neither.

I’ve a MY21 and my diamond button doesn’t illuminate neither. It can be used to operate Homelink and you wouldn’t want it permanently lit once pressed as it’s a toggle switch not an on & off switch. So I assume as it’s a multi-function button they purposely chose it not to illuminate. I only...

Yes. The PCM becomes an extension of your phone through CarPlay. Text messages, WhatsApp messages and phone calls all work. Just some of the cars buttons won’t behave in the way you think they should. I am just working my way through what does and what doesn’t. The functionality will still be...

Yes, carplay will handle all the calls & messages unless you turn it off in the PCM. It’s not a perfect integration with the PCM by any means and I am still learning the little idiosyncrasies but on the whole it’s not a bad experience. What I’ve found is Waze will run in the background so if...

I’ve been trying to get myTuner to start but although it opens the app it won’t auto play. I’m still messing around though & won’t be beaten.

I downloaded Tidal and activated the free trial (all in the name of research!) it then subsequently took £20 from my PayPal account. Turns out the free trial is for new customers only & I must have had an account a very long time ago!! Anyway, Tidal on CarPlay is just awful. I started a song &...

I have adaptive cruise and the HUD. Is that not the speed limit of the cruise control you have set? If not, I’ll take a look at mine when I’m next out and report back.

My Turbo S has standard carbon illuminated kick plates. They are bright too and look good in the dark.

Sometimes it’s as simple as unlocking your phone. If it was the first time connecting your phone then occasionally it needs to establish the security of the device you’re connecting to. I’ve seen it happen to me in other cars & as soon as you unlock the phone the carplay springs to life...

Does your car remember the satellite view on the dash binnacle? Mine forgets once it’s been parked for a while and I have to manually re-start the satellite view. The centre map in the pcm doesn’t forget though. Frustrating.

Any idea on the valve dust caps? I lost one. Googled it looking for them but it seems to be dependant on TPMS style or decorative sleeves? I just thought a dust cap was just a cheap bit of screwed plastic (silver, in my case).

Someone on here recommended Novo Insurance and they came up a treat for me. Mirrored my no claims from my 911 and even offered excess insurance as the excess is STEEP! Saved me about £700.

My advice, for what it’s worth is, save your money & buy the cheaper version for keeping with you in the car & get a dedicated home charging point. Don’t get too hung up on charging power (speed). I did when I bought mine but in reality the 7kw speed I get from my Anderson charger always has me...

Mine is a MY21 I also see the park assist wheel on boot sequence in the lower console (where the parking camera button lives) although only momentarily. I also have only two lines of icons on the main homepage rather than 2 and a bit.

You need a bit of hardware: https://m.banggood.com/12V-Self-Locking-WiFi-Wireless-Switch-for-Alexa-Google-Home-iOS-or-Android-APP-Remote-Control-p-1435267.html I then 3D printed a housing for it too, the link to the cad file is in the reviews. You need the eWe Link app, IFTTT app and to...

I’m sure this will be clarified in due course. The agreement hasn’t passed through parliament yet.

Surprisingly good and flexible considering we are running within the Apple sandbox. I also have a script running to allow Siri (and Alexa) to open my garage door. Why? Because I can, lol. I’m not a software engineer, just a geek.

Here goes.... Install shortcuts from the App Store. Then follow these photographic steps below. Any issues just shout. You may need to play around with the wait time to give everything time to initialise. Good luck.

Ah right. That won’t help with carplay, lol. Although, you do mention carplay so are you using both? Android may be a Bluetooth issue so I probably can’t help. iPhone we’ll give it a whirl.

I’ll try and help you with this. You up for some coding? Download shortcuts from the App Store and we’ll write some scripts. I’ve got one running that stops carplay auto playing and one that stops it playing on my phone out the phones loudspeaker as soon as I leave my car when carplay...
