  • Yesterday my car decided to speak Spanish and to use kilometres rather than miles, random things can happen on both the touchscreen and dashboard.

    The auto dipping headlights stopped dipping a few weeks ago as well, so I’m back to using the stalk switches for that function, as the technology isn’t 100% reliable, hopefully it will remain as minor issues and not escalate.
