Hi all,
Has anyone else experienced what I can only describe as a poltergeist since the software update? I applied one yesterday morning (25th June 2026).
Next time I drove it, after a few miles, the cruise control announced it no longer existed, and I only had speed limiter.
I got home, parked. Did the 10 second infotainment reboot. Nope, still no good, only had limiter.
This morning I come out, hoping that a sleep might have fixed it.. Nope. Still no cruise, and now the infotainment was showing the "Electric" and "Hybrid" buttons both in grey, and I couldn't switch. The car was in electric mode though. I stabbed the throttle to check I still had an engine, and it started, so I was then in Hybrid mode with no way to change back to electric.
I tried the infotainment 10 second reset again.
Nope, no better.
Continued my journey. Got a ping, big warning message telling me to pay attention as the "Electronic engine sound system was active", and a little Orange car with a speaker above it appears at 4 o'clock on the rev counter. Never seen that before in my life.
I then tried to turn on the radio, and discovered that didn't work either. Neither did mp3 playback from my USB stick.
I pulled over.
Unplugged the USB stick. Did every combination of car off/on, 10 second infotainment resets.
Tried starting the car, and everything was back, including cruise control.
Does anyone ever test these software releases? (I work in IT by the way).
