  1. Unable to edit my original post. Turns out turning it off then back on in Settings solved it.
  2. My car has automatic windscreen wipers but I found they are untrustworthy, e.g on the motorway when it was pouring with rain, there was spray everywhere and a lorry goes past. Most of the time they would be on maximum speed - but not always, which was dangerous. However, it appears there are only two manual windscreen wiper speeds - slow and fast. That is fine for drizzling and torrential rain but there is nothing in the middle. I have never driven a car with only two manual windscreen wiper speeds before. Seems daft, to me.
  3. I have a 2024 Vauxhall Corsa with a trim that includes the Blind Spot Alert function. My previous car was a 2022 Peugeot 2008, and the Blind Spot Alert function showed the light on the wing mirror any time a car was in the blind spot, so it happened very often on dual carriageways, on motorways etc (as you would expect). However, I have never once seen the light come on either wing mirror on my Corsa. 'Blind Spot Alert' is enabled in the car's Settings. Just in case it only works whilst actively indicating left or right, I tried that many times on the motorway when a car was near approaching and again, never a light. Any thoughts?
  4. The car constantly 'reads' road signs wrong via its flaky camera recognition and thinks a road has a lower limit than it actually does, so the beeping goes off very often. Deactivating the options displays, "Excessive Speed Warning deactivated until next vehicle start." It is possible to deactivate it permanently?
  5. The forum will not allow me to edit my initial post. The answer is: It is the Tick button on the steering wheel.
  6. I have a 2024 (Corsa F) Corsa Electric. I have set my favourite DAB radio stations but using the steering wheel arrows ignores the favourites and cycles through each DAB station alphabetically. Does anyone know how I can make them only cycle my favourites?
  7. My car arrives at the end of Jan 2025. In the meantime, I test drove one last weekend and it appears there is a little regen at all times (and obviously a lot more if you press the B button, which I will not be doing). Is there a way to fully turn off regenerative braking?
  8. I have only ever driven ICE cars, and in a car wash, I just set them to Neutral and keep the handbrake off. I will be getting my Corsa Electric at the end of January (10 weeks from now) and decided to have a nosey around the Owner's Guide. I noticed this section: Is it really that complicated, or is the manual just being excessive?
  9. I just got a call back from a local dealership (Bristol Street Motors in Lichfield) who told me this option is available for all trim levels of the electric Corsa. Excellent.
  10. I owned a 2019 Ford EcoSport (petrol, automatic) and, via the FordPass app, was able to remotely cool or heat the car for a few minutes before getting in. Unfortunately, my next car, a 2022 Peugeot 2008 (petrol, automatic) did not have this option. I have heard one of the perks of electric cars is the ability to do this. Does the 2024 Vauxhall Corsa have this option?
