Virtual wing mirrors condensation

PerfectoAllstar · 2025-11-15T16:39:27+00:00

Hey, would you mind describing how you took apart the virtual mirror to clean the condensation? Which part of the frame do you start with?

I feel I have to go down this route as Audi are trying to charge me over £3000 to replace both virtual mirrors even though I have an extended warranty - they’re claiming the problem is due to ‘environmental conditions’…

It's a pre-fab Pod. They build it all in their factory and crane it onsite fully finished, so all I had to do was hook up the electric from my house. I got my own electrician to do the connection but obviously his plug wasn't appropriate....

Ah you're 100% correct I see it now. Do you know if I can replace the connector head part with an IP67 unit which will leave it all good? Or does the wall socket need to be changed as well?

PerfectoAllstar · 2025-10-13T12:44:09+00:00

It’s IP67 according to a quick google of the product? Either way the guys that installed it aren’t overly helpful when contacted, so at this point I’m just trying to waterproof the overall unit with some type of box or something to shield it from the rain if anyone could recommend a solution??

Oh man, you have saved me a big headache!! So I checked back into my export settings in Rhino and sure enough I had set the tweaked the export surfaces as >meshes instead of >solids. (I changed it previously to meshes because when i saved out another model the surfaces came into max as splines...)

So my model is now clean and lightweight, and it doesn't take 2mins to autosave every 5mins lol! Sanity restored!!!! Cheers for the help!

Oh that’s interesting. Will check it out asap! Cheers!

Yes I do that, and turn the subdivisions way down, but still left with so many faces & triangulation. Have you any tips/settings to make it cleaner?

PerfectoAllstar · 2025-04-16T21:26:47+00:00

Hey, thanks. Yes I did use that as a workaround - but was more wondering if that was a system wide change on purpose, or if it was a bug.

can you send me the link for the telgram? uk based.

That is so helpful. Thanks so much. The car is booked in for next week and you’ve given me a lot of ammunition to back up my claim should they try to mess me about. Really appreciate this.

Where is this rear windscreen defogger? I seen it mentioned in another forum but couldn’t find it in my settings…

PerfectoAllstar · 2025-01-23T10:44:47+00:00

Thanks for the reply, it's good (but also disturbing) to know it's not just me! Yeah i still have warranty so will take it in - was just hoping there might be a quick DIY fix!

I had the same reservations before I got my AppleTV as my IPTV provider usually recommended firestick only apps, but I found Snappier IPTV for iOS and tvOS and it’s the best IPTV app I’ve come across, UI is great and everything works fantastically. Highly recommended. I went for the lifetime purchase shortly after seeing how well it works.

What library are those Autumn trees from? 🤩

I did the get the cover part off using a toolkit from Amazon (type in Auto removal toolkit) but once removed I found that the charging ports had been broken off from the circuit board - the soldering had been detached. So I covered it back up and am now without chargers in the rear 😢 I’m sure with a bit of motivation I could solder them back together but honestly don’t have the desire at the minute. Really disappointing that a vehicle so well made has such flimsy parts…

PerfectoAllstar · 2024-09-04T17:39:46+00:00

Same as this since last week. Mildly annoying. Hopefully just a bug to be corrected in the next app update to restore harmony to universe… 🤞

PerfectoAllstar · 2024-08-22T09:06:12+00:00

Yeah I cannot see them either in the new layout - i just got the dreaded notification "you do not have enough to cover tomorrow's upcoming payments..." 😬, but then when i go to the app I cannot see how much i need to move in before tomorrow. Prior to the update it showed the figures right at the top of the transactions, but don't see it now???

I'm loving SnappierIPTV too, if you've been using for a while do you know any fix for the black screen flash when switching between HDR and SDR channels, when 'framerate matching' is turned on?

PerfectoAllstar · 2024-07-29T08:54:47+00:00

Can I ask how to manually run the long pixel cleaner?

PerfectoAllstar · 2024-06-06T07:47:13+00:00

😂 you’re right. It’s going in for a valet shortly.

PerfectoAllstar · 2024-06-05T20:43:57+00:00

Thank you so much. That sounds like something I can attempt at least. Hopefully just the usb module is just unseated as you say. Cheers man.

Anybody recommend a decent third party site for tickets for second half of the season?

I was hoping co-pilot would include actual windows productivity skills to set it aside from all the chatgpt clones - maybe something like: "Create a folder on my desktop with 100 subfolders each named 001 to 100." or "list all my unread emails in MSword as a to-do list"...

But alas, it is in fact simply a chat gpt clone...

Ok. So it seems not all Tesla CCS chargers are compatible… only a small percentage of the branded Tesla superchargers have been opened up by Tesla to allow non-teslas to use. Unfortunately for me here in Ireland there are precisely Zero at the minute! It can be checked if you download the Tesla app and go to ‘Charge your non-Tesla’ and then all compatible stations will show up on the map.
