It starts too far back to be of any use to the driver and front passenger but would be nice for the rear passengers. I found the wind noise quite a lot worse than my car which doesn’t have the panoramic roof. I would...

Re: Strange Green Spot!!!

I’ve seen something like that on a few occasions (not linked to any update) and I have concluded that it was an optical effect resulting from light entering the cabin from certain unusual directions (and particularly strong light)

Re: Check your Born VIN for recalls!

I understand that Continental bought Goodyear so that would explain it. I entered my vin number and it said a recall on the Goodyear tyres.
