Having owned the new A4 for about three months now, I'd never done more than an hour long drive up until this weekend, then I had a trip up to Scotland, just over four hours and me and my wife were in absolute agony the day after! I've made the trip in the B8 many times, and whilst I'd previously felt some general aches and stiffness before, this was a whole new level of discomfort.
I can only assume it's down the to S Line sport seats, which I'd previously thought were much more comfortable, especially with the lumbar support. My wife was especially uncomfortable as she tried to deal with our two year old in the back, with the side supports digging into her each time she had to reach back - she'll be sitting on the back seat when we go to London in a few weeks... just wondering what everyone else has been like on these longer drives.
Another thing that occurred to me, I had to put the sat nav on due to a road closure from an accident, while I was using the Apple CarPlay ...does anyone know how to skip songs when the iPhone is playing music but the sat nav screen is on? I couldn't figure it out, other than switching back to CarPlay, which is a real pain! Suppose I could use Siri?
