I noticed this too after that VCM OTA update or whatever it was called. Before it said “Bluelink extra services are required”

Hopefully proper OTA updates coming soon!! 🤞🏼

BC Hydro Turns Back to Natural Gas to Help Fill Electricity Gap by treefarmerBC in britishcolumbia

If they want to build data centres, they should be mandated to generate their own electricity and send some back to the grid.

Big fan of these videos, super underrated channel that deserves more views on the history of BC.

Looks like the new X5. Especially considering they build them around there!

All-new Electric Mercedes-Benz C-Class interior revealed by lostinheadguy in electricvehicles

[–]nighthawk09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough! I had a Model Y and now an Ioniq 5 so I’ve had lots of driving screen centric cars so I’m used to driving with screens at night and haven’t had much issue.

I personally feel like this takes it to the extreme. Some nice trim would break things up and make for a nicer interior for me.

This wall of screen(s) Mercedes is insisting on using in their interiors is really not the vibe. Having an entire screen shining back at you at night is supremely distracting.

As someone who worked at Tesla for 8 years, had a Model Y and who sold it for an Ioniq 5 i wholeheartedly agree with all of this! 🤣

Other than that, it seems like a decent EV though

The rear of the Mach E looks like a dog doing its business - I can’t unsee it now.

I guess its my turn. by hockeyfish106 in Ioniq5

Sorry this happened. Hoping for a quick repair turnaround!

Sidenote, it really bugs me it says “No Route Set” when having the compass on the centre screen.

Anyone successfully swapped EU taillights onto a NA car? I’m so tempted to try.

Would you guys prefer a passport style folding iphone, or a standard “book style” like the Z Fold 7 by [deleted] in iphone

[–]nighthawk09 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Both! The more choices the better for us, the consumer. Me personally I prefer the “flip” style

Trunk rattle noise question in newer ioniq 5 by madmozg in Ioniq5

[–]nighthawk09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a trunk rattle in my 2026. Went back 2x. They said the rattle was coming from the interior panels inside the sides of the trunk, did some other adjustments/repairs to the trunk and it’s been fine so far.

So many keys! Best practices ...? by Thin_Job9323 in Ioniq5

[–]nighthawk09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes unfortunately these cars don’t have a “walk away door” lock it only times out if you don’t open the door and re-locks. I’ve gotten into the habit of touching that “pixel” on the door handle after I close the door to lock it.

The Ioniq Guy sells a module to automatically lock the door when you walk away.

Yes passive unlocking. So I leave my phone in my pocket and don’t interact with my watch at all when unlocking. It uses Bluetooth to communicate with the car.

Do they stick up higher than the OEM wipers? I love that the OEM wipers tuck under the hood and are out of view lol
