Walked past a black Saloon in the station car park last night

Indeed, my last Audi which didn't have 'advanced key' had the original batteries in situ when I traded it in 7 years later.

With apologies to the OP but Ad blue was one of the reasons I decided not to get another diesel car when the time came around to change having previously owned two A5 3.0 TDIs.

There is a well marked deep water channel that keeps shipping away from that particular hazard which is 'unhelpfully' situated in the middle of the Solent. Link to the full report below, but from memory the ship hadn't been loaded correctly, become almost impossible to control and ended up on...

What could possibly go wrong.... https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/11700840.car-transporter-hoegh-osaka-runs-aground-at-bramble-bank-in-solent/

Is this a map update or something else?

Depending on your subscription the ability to send destinations to your car should be available. Unfortunately some of the functions were lost when they 'upgraded' the website a couple of years back

It would be a lot more valuable if they included map updates in the subscription rather than needing to get the dealer to get an update once the 5 free 'online' updates have expired.

Since Audi UK started charging last December Audi connect comes in two 'parts' - the first deals with remote locking/unlocking and is about £50/year, the second is required for the online traffic and satellite overlay features and is around £150/year.

Slightly off topic but it seemed rather a poor show that the glove box light was an optional extra in the first place.

I now work on the basis that it is a pleasant surprise if it activates as there is no obvious logic for when it does so automatically

Doesn't mention that on their website - https://www.radiox.co.uk/how-to-listen/getting-started/

Thanks for that, I can get the stations in second paragraph but not (for example) Heart Extra, this is grim news as this station will soon start broadcasting Christmas music and nothing else.....

I have noticed a few radio stations have now migrated onto DAB+ - is this available on either the original B9 or the facelift models?

In my experience the application of the 'handbrake' seems to be almost random, sometimes it engages automatically and at other times it does not.
