Re: OBD11 dongle recommendation

As an update on this I bit the bullet and ordered an OBDeleven. It’s definitely pretty good. Lane assist setting sorted! 👍Lots of other stuff to (carefully) play with too. Can you share a bit more detail? I know it's posted elsewhere but good to know from someone here who has done it and not had is...

3 weeks just to uk port or 3 weeks to you? Thanks for replying getting frustrated with the wait!
I got an email from Cupra (not the dealer) and within 3 weeks it was available to collect. I didn't sign up to Cupra, this was done by the dealer.

Re: Intelligent Octopus and Cupra

Just to help understanding, if you don't press stop charge the car will charge until Octopus notices it, and then it will send remote signal to car to stop? You're trying to avoid that period of ? mins at full price electricity? What happens to anything else that uses energy during the overnight win...
