My car is 2 days old 2.0 BE stronic ,had a good days driving yesterday,but 2 things went wrong? today,
I got in the car and tried to start the engine and it came up with a message Car does not recognise the key,tried several times nothing,so took my other key and this worked straightaway,went for a ride,shut down and tried the original key and it worked.Spoke with sales lady who spoke with a master technician and they said maybe the key was in the same pocket as my mobile phone .Keep an eye on it sort off.Has anybody has this happen to them?
I went for a drive later with the original key no problem,and i tried to fold mirrors as i have the folding mirror option by using the door mirror switch to 6 o clock position while i was driving and it worked once,tried it on the return journey home and it wouldnot work ,can someone please explain how is this supposed to work?Does the car have to be stationary
or have i got a fault?There is nothing in the manual how to fold the car mirrors manually.
Hope this does not spoil a good experience of a lovely car in other respects.
Thanks
Roy.

My mirrors fold whilst the car is moving by turning the mirror adjustor switch to the 6 o'clock position. A very useful feature I use regularly when navigating a local width restrictor with metal posts either side.

My mirrors fold in when moving but I think it needs to be below 30kph. The only reason I know this is I had to fold them while driving down a narrow street with a van coming towards me. I then tried it at a higher speed and it wouldn't work.

Update.......... Yes LED's AGAIN...

I have been out tonight and the drive home along country lanes was an absolute delight, the LED's are just amazing. The range, spread and brightness is a major step up from xenons.

Nice playing with the LED mood lighting indoors also.

MPG......Norwich and back today including a drive into the city centre and averaged 51.4mpg on the DIS which I am very happy with.

Cameras........Finding these an absolute godsend. Parking against the curb and within lines is really useful.

All in all no complaints at all and it surprises how swift it feels in comparison to my 177 A5 Coupe.

With the announcement this week on the FL I am pleased that my Ultra order was suspended and I ended up with this massive spec'd 177 which will do me nicely until the FL flurry settles down, the S-Tronic issue sorts itself out and some demo stock starts hitting the dealers.
