I think the remote start, flash and beep and eventually the remote lock/unlock are also affected. I’m sure a Mifi unit would suffice. I’ll give it a go and report back once I’ve worked out if I can disable the embedded system. 24MY D300 130 X-Dynamic HSE Santorini Black

I posted similar a few weeks ago with the different subscriptions
Theres no bypass. Spotify etc connect direct to JLR servers then to spotify The remote unlock etc is £60 and thats again a different dedicated sim Mapping is similar but uses the main data. I think if the lot was £120 and you could turn on/off features i would be a bit more relaxed but the thing does annoy me. Especially as mine hasnt been 100% reliable Mike |

Disappointing on cost especially when remote lock/unlock does not work and no ETA for being reinstated.
For me being able to remote lock is one of the best features but only had benefit for a short time since collection in January. Tony MY24 - 110 D300 HSE in Tasman Blue with White Contrast Roof.

Plus a few extras to keep the Cocker Spaniel safe & happy. |

I wonder how much these conveniences are
- a convenience you really appreciate, can't do without and are willing to pay for - a gimmick which is fun at first but wears off as you are getting snowed under with tech demanding your time and effort - a nucance you rather not have - just a revenue source Having gone through a work meltdown myself, I am consciously avoiding unnecessary complexity in life. Obviously I use tech, but I assess the value before committing. Not sure I have seen all that much value in connected cars. |
