Re: Intelligent Octopus and Cupra

Update on my switch from Flexible Octopus to Intelligent Octopus Go and Outgoing Octopus. I applied for Outgoing Octopus through the website. I supplied an updated meter reading and the tariff was set up within a couple of days. To my (pleasant) surprise, it looks like the payments have been backdat...

The USB-C sockets in the rear are for power supply only. They have no signal connection to the infotainment system
There's a cigarette lighter socket in the boot but none inside the cabin.

Re: Charging Cable Hook

It would be much cheaper to buy a charger cable bag for about £8 to £10 and hang that off the existing hook.

Re: Intelligent Octopus and Cupra

I've recently tried to switch over to Intelligent Octopus but am not getting very far. I've sent this all as a support email but got no reply. Anyone else seeing the same issue? I only joined Octopus two weeks ago so maybe I need to wait a bit longer? I posted earlier about switching from E.on to I...

What's the easiest way to check for recalls?

Re: Intelligent Octopus and Cupra

A bit away from the recent thread. Anyone else having any trouble moving to IO? Thanks Dave I've recently had a Solar Panel setup installed. I transferred to Octopus on 23rd September to the only tariff they would offer me, Flexible Octopus. Once that was all set up, I requested a switch to Intelli...

Re: Rear Parking Sensors Unavailable/Impact Warnings

I nearly broke my neck yesterday.... the rear parking sensors jammed (and I mean jammed) the brakes on with a high pitched warning tone when backing into an entirely empty space. Thought I had hit something. No cars for 3 spaces either side of the one I was aiming for. Can only presume it saw a row...

Re: New Cupra goes only 40km/h!

Has the proactive speed limiter been set to "on" by mistake? Check the Owners Manual ( https://www.cupraofficial.com/owners/cu ... nuals.born ) at around page 160/161 for details.
