    Who knew 'Tourist Mode' was temporary?!

    Hi everyone and thanks for your replies. Just to round this off, it turns out my car has flat beams which in theory require no adjustment in France... but which nonetheless caused the car to fail its CT here (MOT-equivalent). After a huge amount of research and messing around, I finally found a...

    Who knew 'Tourist Mode' was temporary?!

    Yes, I see @Hal Adams is in France... but quite a way from me. I am in the far south western corner, about an hour from San Sebastian, which is shown on the map. Maybe I need a road trip! I have 6 weeks to get this sorted (there's a period of 2 months after failing an MOT, to rectify any...

    Who knew 'Tourist Mode' was temporary?!

    I moved from UK to France in 2017 and because my 2015 A6 Allroad was still so 'young', I brought it to France. To comply with French law, I later had to register it on French plates. Having read the manual (p.48), I was under the impression the Xenon headlights would automatically adjust via the...

    Hello there, I've just joined today and can't see how to make a new post. I found how to start a conversation, but then couldn't do that without inviting participants and I have no clue who to invite. Could you point me in the right direction please? Many thanks.
