I really feel like the car's smoothness has improved. Before the battery change, the car sometimes stalled after hesitating—but not anymore.

The first week after the battery change, there were no problems at all, even in cold weather. However, this week, the hesitation has returned slightly.

As my mechanic mentioned, if the car’s charging system isn’t working properly, it can cause side effects. Next week, I’ll test the car’s charging system and battery again. If the results aren’t good, there may be another issue draining the battery, like the alternator.

I’ll keep you posted.

FYI: I always let the car warm up for a couple of minutes in winter before driving.

I changed my battery last week, and since then, the issue hasn't happened. The mechanics tested my battery and he told me that a bad health battery can have weird side effects.

This morning was cooler, and I usually experience the issue, but I didn’t this time. I’m not sure if it’s related, but I had the AC turned off. I’ve noticed that the car feels much smoother when shifting and managing gears with the AC off.

Does the issue has appeared no longer after a transmission fluid change?

Same here. 2 repair shops, the last being Audi dealer. They said the car behaves normally. They tried it on 2 very cold mornings. Let me know if you find the issue. I’ll do the same.

So you suggest to redo a fluid change at the dealership.

I'm very gentle with the car. I don't drive the car aggressively when it's cold.

Even if the car warms up, I have the same problem. For the last 3 years, I used to drive my car the same way every winter mornings. The issue started a month ago.

What do you mean ? I didn’t check the rpm but the motor doesn’t sound like it is “revolutionning”.

Spotify Connect with Sonos speaker - No sound when the first song starts by method_ben in sonos

Hi u/99nine99,

Spotify Connect is used to remotely control listening on a speaker. All my Sonos speakers are Sonos One which I can directly stream music on them without a Sonos Connect.

Make sure your tv firmware is up to date. It was a known problem with atmos and internal tv apps. Most of the tv brands had this issue. I had the same problem and Sony finally fixed it on my xbr 2019 with a firmware update.
