Re: TPMS

They only have a warning system, not real-time monitoring. Seems like a poor omission IMO.

Re: Manual - pages out of sequence??

Funnily enough, I noticed this last night too! Was looking how to turn off the child locks and the pages were all over the place.

Re: MyVauxhall App Issues

I had issues getting it up and running too, but works fine now. It just took the service a little bit of time to fully activate. If you go to https://connect.vauxhall.co.uk/, does the E-Remote Control service say 'Active'? If it's active, make sure Privacy mode is turned off in the car so it can con...

Re: Hybrid battery range

Battery charge is very sensitive to cold conditions and can lose up to 25% of range. I have about the same range on mine at the moment (hovering at 0-2 degrees up here in Scotland). Range will increase again through spring and into summer. I am finding rapid charging to be more effective that home c...

Re: Petrol range rage

Range will be based off lifetime or recent averages. The system won't be keeping track of a drained battery to estimate a petrol only range, although it would have been nice given the limited range on battery power.

Re: Mpg

I commute 50 miles a day to work in a GSe. In hybrid mode I'm seeing it often hit the 100 mpg mark when in steady traffic. When the road is clearer and I'm driving with a bit more "enthusiasm", it drops to around 55 mpg. Only caveat is keeping the battery topped up daily. Had one trip with...

Re: Astra Ultimate Ambient Lighting

Must be a fault. Should look like this (have kept mine blue for electric/hybrid, and orange for sport). Can see the door pocket white ambience below, can't quite see the footwell ones from that angle.

Re: Phone charger size

Hi all, I'm still waiting for my Astra Ultimate to arrive although I have been told it's built but waiting to be shipped from Germany... My question is, does anyone know if the iPhone Max (6.7") fits in the wireless charging area? Cheers, Alan It will fit easily. I have a Galaxy S20+ which is ...

Re: Ambient downlights

Hi all. Currently have Astra K Elite which has a small light near the rear view mirror that gently illuminates the gearstick area. Looking at getting an Ultimate. Do you know if they also have this ambient downlight? Looking at getting an Astra L Ultimate? I'm sure it does, but will check when I ge...

Re: Astra Ultimate Ambient Lighting

I don't have the ultimate, but have the GSe which has a similar spec. Will check next time I'm in, but I have ambient lighting in the door storage, footwells and inside the phone charging bay. It's white at the moment, but haven't looked for the colour settings yet. Unless you're mistaking the ligh...
