  1. My 4th generation iPod Nano is not charging, despite the handbook stating that it should. Shouldn't LR be responsible for resolving this issue at their cost? My automobile is a MY10 RRS TDV6. Additionally, when I turn off my vehicle, it does not turn off my iPod, causing it to entirely lose power by the time I leave the workplace.It is unusual that my Jaguar XK, which is just 7 months old, does not charge it! Using the USB connection and the included Apple PC lead charges the iPod but does not allow it to play. Quite a troublesome situation.
  2. Over the course of many years, I have discovered that the Forum has proven to be really valuable and enlightening. It is advisable to allow for a lengthier duration than a single day before engaging in any kind of evaluation or judgement.
  3. One potential course of action is the removal of the rear hatch trim to inspect the latch for any signs of loose bolts or a damaged or broken latch bracket, provided that the individual feels at ease doing this task.
  4. The second iteration of the Ottocast device had a recurring fault, mirroring the experience seen with the first device. Specifically, the device consistently encountered a delay during the 'Looking for Android Auto' phase. I established a connection between the device and my computer using Wi-Fi Direct, which verified that the firmware was up to current, therefore ruling out firmware as the cause of the problem. I came across a Reddit forum that suggested doing a factory reset on the vehicle as a possible resolution. I am pleased to announce that this approach was well. I have successfully achieved optimal functionality of wifi Android Auto in full screen mode. If other individuals have a similar challenge while attempting to establish a connection between the Ottocast and their automobile, the following steps were undertaken by me: Perform a factory reset on the vehicle and power it down. To remove Android Auto data and cache from a mobile device, follow the steps outlined below. If the device has been previously paired, it is advisable to unpair or forget the device in order to prevent any further connection attempts. Perform a system reboot on the mobile device. Resetting Ottocast is necessary in order to restore it to its original state or default settings. To ensure proper functionality, it is recommended to press and hold the button for a duration of 10 to 15 seconds while the Ottocast device is switched on. To establish a connection between Ottocast and the vehicle, please follow the necessary steps. Activate the automobile's ignition and allow for a period of time to elapse. It is advised to refrain from engaging in any activities on your mobile device. Upon the lapse of a brief interval, a visual display will manifest itself on the automobile, presenting the user with the option to establish a connection either automatically or manually, and thereafter granting access to a range of rights and functionalities. Please choose "yes" for all options. Upon completion of the necessary steps, a notice will be generated on your mobile device prompting you to establish a connection with the designated device. Connect the device and allow a brief interval for the Android Auto interface to be shown prominently on the whole screen of your automobile. This information is intended to provide assistance and alleviate the frustration experienced by those who may encounter similar challenges.
  5. The CarlinKit CPC2200-A2A has been received. There were no connectivity concerns seen, since the pairing process between the devices was completed within a few seconds. The performance of Android Auto was flawless, with no discernible latency or delay. The display was flawless; nevertheless, it did not occupy the whole screen. Regrettably, the right half of the screen remained obstructed by the prominent Android Auto branding. I have placed an additional order for an Ottocast U2-X Pro with the expectation that this subsequent acquisition would prove to be functional. In the event that the process of searching for Android Auto becomes stagnant once again, I will endeavour to update the firmware independently in order to ascertain if this action will effectively rectify the problem. I will provide more updates to inform you of the outcome. For the time being, we will retain the CarlinKit.
  6. Despite exerting considerable effort, I have consistently failed to successfully establish a wireless connection between my Android device and the Ottocast system for Android Auto. The vehicle promptly identified the Ottocast device, enabling me to establish a Bluetooth connection. However, after several tries and extended waiting periods, my phone consistently remained stuck at the 'Looking for Android Auto' stage without any further progress. I initiated communication with Ottocast, who then made a request for the equipment to be returned. No solutions were provided to me. Upon receiving a refund from Amazon, I intend to proceed with the purchase of a CarlinKit, with the expectation that it will function as intended. I will provide an update in the near future.
  7. After doing an investigation this evening, I have just placed an order for an Ottocast device, which is anticipated to provide me with the capability of using Android Auto on a full screen, as well as wireless connection. I will provide an update after a few days to ascertain the efficacy of the intervention. I also examined the CarLinkit 5.0 device, but my understanding is that it requires a wired connection to the rear of the screen unit in order to provide full screen Android Auto functionality. Personally, I would want to avoid the requirement for such installation.
  8. I will comply with the request. I attempted to modify the resolution in developer mode on the AA platform, but unfortunately, my efforts were unsuccessful. I am optimistic about finding a resolution.
  9. I have successfully installed the Mercedes Me application and have seen that the Android Auto functionality is now operational. Currently, I am faced with the task of determining the appropriate method to enable the application to occupy the whole screen, since a significant portion of the screen is presently allocated to Android Auto.
  10. I appreciate your suggestion. I am using a Samsung connection that has shown compatibility with Android Auto on my A6 vehicle. Therefore, I infer that it should also function well on the Mercedes vehicle. However, I will proceed to test the connectivity using a few other cords for confirmation.
  11. Greetings, everyone. I am seeking assistance from someone who can provide clarity on this matter, as I am now experiencing a state of profound confusion. Yesterday, I acquired ownership of a Mercedes-Benz vehicle and I am quite pleased with my acquisition. The vehicle under consideration exhibits a much higher level of satisfaction compared to the two A6 models that were previously operated throughout the last several years. Today, I attempted to establish a connection with Android Auto, only to discover that the vehicle in question lacks compatibility with the aforementioned system. I conducted an online search using the Google search engine and then contacted several vendors that provide aftermarket Android Auto retrofits. The first business proposed to do the retrofitting project and provided a quotation of £800. According to the second organisation, the recommended course of action is downloading the Mercedes Me App and thereafter procuring the necessary software using such application. Clearly, it is evident that both assertions cannot be simultaneously accurate. As I engage in more online research using the Google search engine, I find myself increasingly perplexed. I am uncertain as to whether my vehicle is equipped with the MBUX or Command system. Is there a precise method to ascertain the necessary steps for enabling the functionality of Android Auto? Thank you so much for your aid.
  12. This is the lowest possible level. The chairs have limited downward adjustment capabilities. In my observation from the year 2018, it can be noted that the height of both the right and left side seems to be equivalent. The objects have a planar structure extending uniformly from the left to the right side. It is possible that alterations have been made. The original poster's assertion is entirely accurate. It would be comprehensible if the 40% on the right did not decrease entirely to align with the 60% on the left, since the distribution is not symmetrical. I regret to admit that I have neglected to consult my handbook, for which I take full responsibility. However, it should be noted that if the same technique is used to the right, the resulting outcome is of a greater magnitude. However, it is worth mentioning that I have just acquired a quite uncommon 2022 CX-9 TWO ROW car, which I take great pride in. I have successfully removed the third row from my vehicle and have proceeded to create a cardboard template for the purpose of fabricating a new cargo floor. It is my intention to complete this fabrication process during the next weekend. The system consists of three bolts and a wire connection. The donkey cushion proved to be somewhat troublesome until I managed to resolve the issue. However, the concept is straightforward. The size of the mentioned object is comparable to that of a Rav4.
  13. An excellent inquiry. I am able to vertically lower the right side of the middle row. The mechanism by which the seat cushion descends farther, enabling one side to achieve a completely level position, eludes my memory.
  14. I would like to express that my prior CX-9 had superior soundproofing and ride quality compared to the CX60.
  15. The task was executed with great proficiency.Additionally, I am interested in engaging in sound insulation measures. However, I have some reservations since I just discovered that alubutyl does not possess the automobile manufacturer's approval for use inside the engine compartment, namely below the hood.
  16. I use the OxGord Yoga Sweat Towel for my yoga practise. The product has a strap that encircles the headrest and provides coverage for the whole of the seat. https://www.amazon.com/dp/ (commissions earned)
  17. The CX30 is expected to be first released with conventional engines, however, it is advisable to exercise patience since the Skyactive X engine is anticipated to become available in due course.
  18. Yes, there was a typographical error in my previous message. I intended to refer to the CX-3.
  19. I had the opportunity to examine the CX-3 model at the Auto Expo held in Raleigh, North Carolina. Undoubtedly, the size of this object is rather inadequate for those in the middle-aged demographic. However, this particular option is most suitable for adolescents and romantic partners without children. In order to do a comparison, I examined a Toyota CH-R vehicle and promptly determined that its backseat was unsuitable for use.
  20. Indeed, it seems that the horsepower and torque figures are lower in comparison to those of the 2.5L engine. It would be advantageous if this vehicle were equipped with a turbocharged engine. The individual would engage in competition with other participants under the "hot hatches" category.
  21. The lack of stability is unexpected. Is the riding height lower, however?
  22. I am contemplating the purchase of a CX-3. Could you please provide me with some feedback? Can those who possess both the CX-3 and CX-5 provide insights on this matter?
  23. hi. Currently, the mileage on my vehicle stands at around 46,500 miles. The issue of smoke seemed to resolve spontaneously. The duration of the occurrence spanned around 48 hours, during which each instance of starting the vehicle's engine resulted in the emission of smoke. I am postulating that the issue may be attributed to substandard fuel or a related factor, since the engine continues to exhibit a little irregularity in its idling behavior. I have refrained from refilling the tank at this point, opting instead to observe the situation before proceeding to engage with the vendor.
