Just had it serviced a month ago where they re- installed the softwear for the radio as it kept cutting out. Another poor item for a £27,000 motor. Thanks for the advice.

DAB RADIO UNRELIABLE ?

Has anyone had the problem of the radio not working / not turning its self on when you start the car ? In the last few weeks this has happened, but not all the time. The screen remains blank and pressing the buttons doesn't work. I drive to work then after a minute or so it decides to come back to l...

Re: Speed Camera warning

POI warning set or On and Bleep. This can be set at a distance also. 500m are good for speed cams. So 500m before a bleep is heard for the on coming speed cam......and then a bleep as you pass it.

Re: Continental Tyres

I don't know how people drive their QQ,s but if they stick roughly to the speed limits and allow enough room for braking I think any tyre ,which is compatible with their car, would be adequate.

Re: Soon to be a QQ owner

At £21,000 maybe a bit more of a bargain. £28,000 was nearer the mark for me. Been 7 weeks since they diagnosed my broken condenser yet no up date or any info on when it may be changed/fixed. Hope you have better luck on your warranty repairs or you maybe driving a loan car for months.

Re: Soon to be a QQ owner

You pay your money and takes your choice. Personally id go for the Ateca or the Skoda Kodaiq (video above) both look a better bet, I don't think you can beat cars, german/Spanish screw together. I have had my 1.5 diesel Tekna for 2 years so I know this car well now. Can be abit under powered when on...

Re: Sat nav not accurate

Ive had my tekna QQ for 2 years now and the sat / nav has been fine. Maybe a software fault so looks like a trip to the dealership is required.

Rear screen.

Can anyone give me some advice on fixing the heated rear screen on my car. I think I've damaged a couple of the heating elements and so the don't clear the screen now. Can this be fixed or is it the best option to have a new one fitted. Any comments would be welcome
