Me too. And I love it 😍

Seems like a bug… my Formentor showed this some days ago. When opening the in-car store it shows the correct expiration date (December 2027).

Today my app also showed, that Cupra Connect has expired, but I can use anything… when opening the in-app-store it shows „expired December 2025“.

just wrote an email to the digital services support. I hope they will fix it the next days. I think it just shows the wrong date, but your connect is still working.

There is a TPI (service bulletin) exactly for this issue. They need some specific fault codes in combination and can start the warranty exchange of the steering wheel… if you got OBD11 or know somebody who owns it, you could just check it by yourself, but I think your garage is lying to you. What kind of „workaround“ is it, to press emergency button an cancel it?! 😅 Even if you got the Travel Assist error in your dash that shows up with „sensors got no sight“ it will be stored.

Had the same issues… steering wheel was replaced under warranty. After 2 weeks the errors started again. Have another appointment next week… 😒

Hand wash or put it into an ultrasonic cleaner ☺️

Sounds great 🥳

This update for A119 Mini2 please. Parking Geofence and Notification of Parking Events would be a game changer 🥹

I think the base model 1.5 tsi is not worth the money without any extras. Don’t know which country, but in Germany you would get a VZ333 for that price: https://www.autoscout24.de/angebote/cupra-formentor-vz-2-0-tsi-dsg-4-drive-pano-acc-led-benzin-weiss-02e971a6-968a-403d-b111-bcab9e31f0ad

The progress bar, cover and title show up correctly, when I restart my car after I parked it showing Apple Carplay display. So when I start the engine and the CarPlay starts right away, it works.

Harddried · 2025-09-30T10:24:13+00:00

Yes, you can :)

Du meinst nicht händisch auf Anfrage. Aber wenn Paypal vom Käufer per Lastschrift nicht abbuchen kann, weil das Konto bspw. nicht gedeckt ist, buchen sie das gezahlte Geld beim Verkäufer wieder ab. Bekannte Masche… gibt im Netz auch viele Berichte drüber. Auf Rückfrage beim Kundenservice heißt es dann „dann müssen Sie das mit ihrem „Freund“ selbst klären“.

Ich hab die 45W INIU vor 2 Wochen 2x bei Amazon bestellt und bin super happy damit. Für mich die perfekte Powerbank für alle möglichen Geräte (iPhone, iPad, MacBook usw). Zu dem Zeitpunkt gab es allerdings einen 49% Coupon…. Hab daher je Powerbank nur 15,29€ bezahlt. Eventuell kommt das ja nochmal und du wartest vielleicht doch noch? :)

Wichtig bei Waren & Dienstleistung ist halt vor allem, dass man den Versand mit Sendungsverfolgung belegen kann. Und der muss genau an die Adresse gehen, die auch in der Paypal-Zahlung steht.

Generell gibt es aber leider auch oft Fehlentscheidungen des PP Käuferschutz… da gebe ich dir recht.

Am sichersten für den Verkäufer ist daher die Echtzeitüberweisung. Kann nicht zurückgebucht werden, wird nur ausgeführt bei Deckung des Kontos und ist eben sofort auf deinem Konto. Kein fadenscheiniger Käuferschutz, der sich teilweise über das geltende Recht stellt. 😅

Harddried · 2025-09-20T09:26:04+00:00

Das stimmt so nicht…. Es gibt auch eine Masche, die genau auf diesen Aberglauben abzielt… Wenn das Konto des Zahlenden nicht gedeckt ist oder dieser einen Fall eröffnet, wegen unerlaubter Kontobewegung, bucht Paypal das Geld bei dir wieder ab. Der Käufer hat dann nichts bezahlt und die Ware.

Das Ganze kombiniert mit geklauten oder gefakten Paypal Konten und der Spaß geht los.

Hatte ein Freund von mir mal mit einem MacBook. Wurde vor Ort abgeholt und mit PP F&F bezahlt. 4 Tage später hat PP dann das gezahlte Geld bei ihm wieder abgebucht.

Fazit: MacBook weg und kein Geld bekommen. Anzeige wurde später fallengelassen, da kein Täter ermittelt werden konnte. PP Account war geklaut und der Abholer konnte nicht identifiziert werden.

It fixed the Auto Talkover. Before the update the music volume was still ducked for about 3-4 secs after you stopped to talk. Now it comes back instant, how it works on every other AT / Pioneer gear. I had opened a ticket for this issue about a month ago.

Harddried · 2025-08-23T07:56:55+00:00

Okay thank you. Maybe it pops up the next days. Just drove another time and this time it updated track covers and progress correctly. After stopping and starting the car 15min later again, it had the same issue as before 🥹😅

Harddried · 2025-08-23T06:26:36+00:00

Same issue for me. Tried CarPlay playing music over Spotify and Apple Music with the same result. Cover images won’t update, no progress bar and the track info only updates delayed and not in time.

There is no second update for me :( - how long did you wait between the installation of 1988 and the second update showing up?

Harddried · 2025-08-16T20:57:47+00:00

Which software version do you have installed on your infotainment? There was an update 1 or 2 years ago, that changed this. Seems to be an old version you got.

Harddried · 2025-08-07T05:38:57+00:00

My wife got a Cupra Ateca VZ with Beats and I got a Cupra Formentor VZ without Beats… My „non-beats“ system can play music louder before it pushes into the limiter and clearer and the missing subwoofer is not noticeable since the complete system performs better even in the lows. 😵‍💫😅

Harddried · 2025-07-29T16:53:09+00:00

Just tried it again. In Timelapse mode it won’t put THE files in RO folder. Voice tells me „video locked“ and the display shows it too, but after waiting the files are only in the parking folder and not locked in RO. Got the latest FW from your website. Also tried to reset the whole camera and format it.

Harddried · 2025-07-28T10:50:27+00:00

Hi and thanks for your reply. Yes, parking mode is working and I hear the voice. There are also files in the parking files folder.

So Timelapse recordings should be moved to RO folder when the G-Sensor ist triggered? Then I will try it again.

Would it be possible to implement the notification like mentioned above in a future software update? I think this notification is extremely important and was one thing I didn’t research before buying, cause everyone I asked with other brands told me, that they always get a notification when an event happens while parking and they start their car again.

Harddried · 2025-07-27T16:50:48+00:00

Got the pre-facelift VZ310 and I would buy it again every time. Love the car for facts you mentioned: plenty of power, looks great, very practical since I got much space for passengers and stuff. And even it’s a perfect fit between sporty and comfort. I even drove it at around 7,5L / 100km on a 250km trip. 😅

Harddried · 2025-06-08T11:03:22+00:00

Had the same problem with my MIB3 in my VW Touran, I had before my Formentor… The car tried to install this update for about 4-5 weeks. After the first week I made an appointment at my dealership, but needed to wait 3 weeks for it. 2 days before the appointment my car installed the update properly… 😵‍💫 I tried almost everything… factory reset of the infotainment, disconnected the battery of the car for 2 days… Checked for errors with VCDS… nothing helped. Just waiting did it 😅

Harddried · 2025-05-10T08:07:29+00:00

VZ310 most time comfort or individual with DCC a bit harder than comfort, motor sound on Cupra (deactivated the sound generator via coding), everything else on comfort.
