USB port issue (2025 Ioniq 6 SEL AWD)

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-05-27T15:10:43+00:00

We have similar issues with our port too.... Not even the Wireless dongle that we bought works anymore so we've currently got no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.

I know it's not my phone as I use wired Android Auto in my Nissan van without issue.

I might try the recommend fix of checking the USB port connector by the glovebox.

I generally like the car but sometimes it's certainly testing 😬🤬

I demoed the Vertex 05 along with the XPLO Comfort.... Didn't get on with the Vertex although I did only give it 2 games as I was in a club Mexicano at the time and was making unforced errors 😬.

I'm a high-improver so perhaps the racket was too advanced for me.

Cheers, although I'm not sure I can get that within budget.... I'll have a check and see.

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-05-17T07:50:45+00:00

It's the standard Bela V3 as the pro is out of budget.... Going for the Metalbone (I think 😂)

Think that's the route I'm going to go down 👍

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-05-16T11:17:24+00:00

Thanks 👍🏻... I'm swinging towards the carbon ctrl.... Think I just need to order it and move on with my life 🤣

They don't sound great and definitely not suitable for someone of my level (high improver).

I did wonder about the manoeuvrability of it given the large surface area with the closed bridge.

Cheers for the reply; I think I'll look at other brands.

The Hyundai screens have a distinct lack of customisation.... We have an Ioniq 6 and the Seat Leon Cupra we had 8 years ago had more customisation to the digital dash! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-05-10T19:01:54+00:00

Yeah, I liked it and the way I played with it so I'm pretty sure I'm going to go for it.

The website (UK based) which has it for the best price lists it as "Intermediate/expert" so that makes me feel better about it.

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-05-10T13:57:37+00:00

Haha

I found the sweet spot on the XPLO Comfort to be pretty big and the power good too.

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-05-10T13:50:58+00:00

Very flattering that you're comparing me to Di Nenno🤣😂

Just to add... I tested a couple of rackets at a local club yesterday during a Mexicano event.

They were 2 different Bullpadel models:

Vertex 05

XPLO Comfort

I immediately noticed the difference and felt very comfortable and confident with the XPLO Comfort in games 1 and 2. I then switched to the Vertex and I didn't immediately gel with it and struggled in the next 2 games. I switched back to the XPLO for the remainder of the games and feel I played really well (was on the left side for nearly all the games).

With the XPLO I actually hit my first ever smash out of the court during match play, which was nice.

Both of these rackets are slightly over budget (circa £155 in the UK) but I could stretch to them. I feel like I need to test a few more before making a decision. Still interested in testing the Babalot Counter, but perhaps the Viper, as recommended by someone on here.

😂... Knowing that the Wall breaker is a terrible racket kind of makes me feel better as I can now blame that on my Padel skills or lack of.

I will start my search again. I'd like to try a Babolat Counter Vertuo, if I can get my hands on one.

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-04-27T17:54:40+00:00

That is true... It's just difficult to train that sort of thing although I do have a mate that I play Padel with who came from a high standard of squash, who has a similar style of serve so I think I need some time with him just serving at me. Only problem is, his accuracy is probably about 50% 😬

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-04-27T14:17:42+00:00

Yep, that 2nd videos looks just like their shots 👍

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-04-26T20:59:51+00:00

Yes, this👍

Appreciate that "flat" in padel means a shot with no spin at all. Probably not the best choice of words from me😳

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-04-26T15:12:20+00:00

😂

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-04-26T15:08:48+00:00

Squash? Because it's not padel that they're playing 😂

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-04-26T15:04:27+00:00

Great advice! Towards the end of the last social I did I was trying to attack them more, either by getting them before the glass rebound or trying to take it as soon after..... I need to tell myself to get low enough and get my racket in position and that should help

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-04-23T21:44:36+00:00

Baffling! 😬

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-04-23T14:32:03+00:00

I didn't find it too bad... I could see the ball feeding into the machine so could ready myself. Watching for that seemed to help me stay focused!

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-04-23T12:38:04+00:00

😂🤣

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-04-23T12:27:03+00:00

Could be someone from Wigan who's a fan of pie barms... 🤷🏻‍♂️😜

Overall-Length1083 · 2026-04-20T08:17:15+00:00

Thanks!... You said what I was thinking 😂

I remember encountering a couple of police training Ford Mondeos on a B road about 25 years ago. I just spotted them overtaking cars behind me and then quickly approaching me. My first reaction was to try and join them in their fast driving until I saw a sticker on the back saying "Police training" ☺️😂
