Re: Id4 - puncture repair - using 12v socket

There is also a fuse that you can change the position of, so the 12v socket is always live. (At your own risk, of course... I did it the day I got mine, and I couldn't tell you now, which fuse it was!)

Re: Lane assist

I feel like I am missing something with Lane Assist / Travel Assist / Auto Lane change / "swarm data"... I have software 3.0, and I have Travel Assist and Lane Assist, so I should be able to enable Auto Lane change, right? But pressing "Set" on a multilane motorway just resets th...

In the meantime I've spent over £1k getting my existing car through its MOT... a car that should have ...

Re: Improved mileage

I heard that D mode with Eco (?) turned on is good - doesn't that do regenerative braking when it knows there is a bend / Junction / turning coming up?
