The cold weather alert especially gets on my nerves. I appreciate the heads up, but I don't appreciate the HUD crying wolf about stuff that doesn't require my immediate attention.
- cjrp 2y agoThis is my biggest bugbear with VW (and related) cars. The "it's below 4ºc" message has the same warning tone as messages about tyre pressures, engine malfunctions, etc.
- necovek 2y agoI'd be more worried that you already know how an engine malfunction alert sounds like!
- cjrp 2y agoOh I'm very familiar, I've not had a good experience with my Skoda Karoq!
- jamincan 2y agoMine is the "grab your steering wheel" alert when the lane-keep assist does too good of a job staying in the lane and it doesn't receive any steering input from me for too long of a period. I do have to say that after test-driving a number of different vehicles before buying my Taos last summer, that I appreciate that VW continues to use real buttons for most inputs - although I do understand a number of their other vehicles use capacitive touch buttons.
- moogly 2y agoDrives me nuts. It's so loud in my Mazda. Oh, and in the winter, if the front sensors are iced over, it has the worst ear-stabbing incessant EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE... sound at low speeds until I go out and fix it. I have not found any other way to shut it up. It might be at high speeds too, because it is so awful that I cannot not go out and fix it, so I'm not sure. Luckily it hasn't happened yet where I couldn't stop somewhere.
