  1. What is the quality of the 12.3-inch display? Is the processor rapid? Acceptable pixel quality, among other factors? Are there any images available? I intend to acquire Android Auto for utilising Spotify and Google Maps. I prefer the MMI multimedia unit; nevertheless, if the sound quality matches that of the concert, I am willing to compromise. I unequivocally desire Bang & Olufsen, as I wish to avoid incurring substantial expenses to upgrade the conventional system.
  2. I am not an audiophile, but I appreciate music and dislike experiencing 'bad signal' feedback or interference at elevated volumes.
  3. I am seeking to purchase a 2013 Audi A5 equipped with Bang & Olufsen audio system. I have observed several equipped with the 'concert' system and others featuring the 'multimedia' system. I acknowledge that the multimedia unit is superior due to enhanced functionalities, such as satellite navigation. I intend to acquire Android Auto to manage without a satellite navigation system. Is there a distinction in sound quality between the Concert system including B&O and the Multimedia system also equipped with B&O?
  4. The paddles adjust the regenerative braking level on my EV6, but not on our 2022 Sportage PHEV. I want that they would, since I like a more assertive regeneration setup.
  5. Mobile data must be enabled to continue receiving satellite navigation updates. Your house WiFi has a restricted range, and you will rapidly lose connectivity as you go. In addition to mobile data, it is necessary to activate the mobile hotspot and connect your phone to the vehicle. The likely reason is because PAYG is far more costly than a contract. I pay £6 per month to Sky for 2GB of data and unlimited calls and messages.
  6. The expense of mobile data is minimal; I often use it for navigation and Spotify on 500-mile round journeys, incurring just a few cents. Downloading films or similar content incurs much higher mobile expenses.
  7. Thank you, everyone. I have completed approximately 7,000 miles with it, and despite its 1.5-liter Renault-derived engine, it has performed quite well. The one significant issue was the thermostat, which I replaced along with the timing belt, water pump, and auxiliary belt. The driver's seat base had split, so I procured a replacement from Germany and installed it, which was quite straightforward. Replaced the analogue climate control with a digital version featuring a reset button. I had the vehicle remapped with an eco map, as 109 horsepower was insufficient. It possesses slightly increased torque and may attain just over 76 miles per gallon on a journey, while the typical performance is in the upper 60s.
  8. Inside, I observed a hoover cleaner and dust.
  9. I dedicated the morning to meticulously detailing my w246 b180. With 126,000 kilometres, it still presents well. Simoniz snow foam and the two-bucket washing technique Subsequently, a machine polish was applied utilising Meguiar's Ultimate Polish, concluding with Meguiar's Gold Class paste wax. Meguiar's tyre and trim gel applied on door rubbers, tyres, and black trim.
  10. Thank you for your response, torque2me. Initially, I considered that possibility. Both remotes had fresh batteries installed two months ago; however, one ceased functioning, prompting me to replace both batteries while I was re-soldering. I tested both remotes, and they operated correctly. As previously stated, it has remained undercover while the salt is present. However, it has been started and operated (still undercover and not driven) with both keys for approximately 30 minutes each time at speeds above idle to circulate the oil and water in the engine, both functioning adequately. Subsequently, a week later, both remotes ceased to operate simultaneously.
  11. I will attempt that as well; thank you very much.
  12. I hope you are mistaken; but, I shall explore other more expedient alternatives initially. Nonetheless, my intuition aligns with your recommendation. Thank you. This is not the first occurrence; previously, when my car battery in the trunk was malfunctioning, I had a new one installed, necessitating the reprogramming of both remotes. Everything functioned optimally for a period, and the new battery is currently on an excellent trickle charger. However, it is becoming increasingly frustrating, as I have inspected every fuse, among other components. Is there a method to verify the diversity antenna, as all other components in the vehicle appear to function well despite my repeated attempts? Thank you
