Hi All,

Had my GTS for just over a week now and have noticed a couple of things that I didn't knowingly option, but seem to be present.

I also got an email the other day saying there are some Functions on Demand that I have for up to 3 months.

The things I have actually noticed are: Comfort Access and some kind of basic Lane Keeping.

The email also mentions InnoDrive and Power Steering Plus. I am pretty sure I can't have InnoDrive as I didn't spec ACC (and don't have the big camera/radar below the front bumper). I also don't believe I can have Active Lane Keeping as this need the Camera/Radar.

How would I know if I have a 3 month trial of Power Steering Plus?

I'm not too fussed about Power Steering Plus. I might miss the Comfort Access, but no biggie if I lose it (which is why I didn't spec it).

If I log into my account I get the option to purchase Power Steering Plus and Comfort Access, but it doesn't say anything about them being in a 3 month trial.

PSP is without trial. You can only purchase it and it can’t be removed once installed ( if I remember well). So chose wisely if you don’t think you want it.

I have activated the trial ALK and Innodrive. It has been active for a year. Just two weeks ago I saw I had been billed for those the first time. For now I will keep them by monthly payments. I will keep the car 2.5 years so monthly will be cheaper anyway. I may deactivate it in the months I don’t do longer trips not sure yet.

I tried PSP using FOD, preferred the car without it and cancelled (back in December). You have to cancel by sending an email to [email protected] - I think the details were in the T&Cs when signing up for it. It took a few weeks for PSP to be removed, whereas activating was straight away.

I think you will find you have Lane keep assist, which is standard on all cars. It pushes you back into the lane if you are heading for the white line. The optional Automatic lane keeping will keep you in the middle of the lane.

Most cars also seem to have comfort access activated although if you didn’t spec it you won’t have the additional button in the boot to close the boot and lock the doors.
