      I think I’m going to cancel the agreement early. Oh so many stupid-broken things, some are little niggles others are a pain in the…

      I won’t do a story about it and I will just list the problems, any questions just ask and I’ll answer them.

      Full charge 100% has 326m on the GOM real range and driving conservatively only gives about 225m.

      The two trips main and other show different miles PKW readings.

      Radio stations disappearing and have to fav them all again.

      The app is useless, doesn’t work most times and when it does it won’t show miles PKW on journeys.

      Parking brake warning says that it’s broken and needs took to workshop, happened 3 times over a day. I have pictures.

      Wouldn’t select gears today, happened just once. Have video off it.

      Cruise control wouldn’t work yesterday, just once. Have a picture.

      No auto hold. Big problem for me.

      No tyre pressure figures, just says that they are OK.

      Some buttons are not very responsive including start and stop button and some touch ones.

      Auto lock didn’t work yesterday, just once.

      Definitely need a back wiper as rain water doesn’t fall or get blown off because of shape.

      No coasting/free wheeling as there is always one bar of regen on and it can’t be turned off. Major problem.

      OK Peugeot-chatgpt is useless, if it works which it usually doesn’t.

      Speed limit reading is bizarre and useless. It shows random speeds of 17mph and 27mph. It also picks up motorway way slip roads speeds limits so throws up 30 and 40mph. Most of these were in 70mph zones. I’ve seen pictures were they have the speed limit at 90mph.

      Some things seem set up for left hand drive cars like dual climate zone and the re-gen paddles are back to front – is up and + is down.

      Kick opening of boot sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t.

      Android auto always pops up for no reason, so end up going from radio to Spotify song and Google maps.

      The seats get really hot in this good weather, very uncomfortable on a long drive. The Kona black leather didn’t get as hot.

      There is no V2L on this car. I’ve spent 10s of hours trying to find out about it and there’s nothing except for early advertising of the car. I spent 30mins on the phone to Peugeot CC today and the guy knew what V2L was but didn’t know the e3008 had it. Even asked where I seen that it had it. On hold for most of the call while he contacted different departments and no one knew anything about it. He gives me a case number and said he will see what he can find out, but it might take a few days. 1. There’s no information regarding V2L except for a mention of it in an early brochure. 2. Why aren’t Peugeot selling leads, adapters for it. 3. No one including some at Peugeot know nothing about it. 4. Why is there no mention of it in any of the cars menus, up to date manuals. I don’t think it has it. I did read on an e3008 FB group that it will be an update in 2025. Deal breaker and car could go back because of this.

      Some of these are just wee silly things, others aren’t.

      Good things. It’s very quiet, comfortable, screens are very responsive, clear and bright. it’s stunning looking, it’s very big, feels bigger than it is. It seems solid, very well put together. And I’ve had a headache from I’ve got this car, caused by this car.

          Can I ask if anyone knows how to turn the brightness down for the instrument panels, I can alter the brightness for the colour lighting that surrounds the dash but not the actual instrument gauges etc it seems greyed out, another one sorry if it’s been mentioned does anyone’s reverse camera stay on once you have reversed, I have to actually press the x in the corner to get rid of it, oh and one last thing my phone doesn’t charge on the  wireless mat, it just gets red hot with no charge going in at all.

          Hope you’re all doing well. 😁

            Paul if you go into settings then go to Brightness you’ll see Cockpit and a slider from 0 to 15. But in mine sometimes you can slide sometimes not, either way it does not work.

            Yes we all have to press the X to turn camera off and it’s a big complaint by many.

            I’ve read on FB that it happens to quite a few phones. I think it maybe certain phones

              Thanks Des, I’ve since had an update today, apart from completely crashing my navigation for several hours I now seem to be able to change the brightness but now with you saying sometimes yours works and sometimes doesn’t makes me wonder if that’s just a coincidence, in the Facebook forum some people are saying that the instrument panels just go blank as well as the reverse camera disappearing, have that to look forward to 😁

                Des, another week has passed since your last thoughts on the car. Has anything changed in that time? Like it more? …. even less?

                  Less. Hence the no comment on it lol. Most things seem to have ironed themselves out, but sat nav not working and blank screen persist. I’ve had problems with my phone in the car. It rings but I can’t use the phone nor can I use the infotainment screen as nothing shows, just normal screen. Phone works as if there was no call coming through, just rings. I have to disconnect phone from car to get it to work.

                  Drive selector still hit and miss and last time was at temp traffic lights. I knew I’d sit for a bit at them so hit park and put handbrake on.

                  When lights changed it would not select. I got phone out and recorded it clearly showing me pressing brake pedal and try to select D. Had to turn car off to get it to work.

                  Also I’m sure the people behind me weren’t too amused.

                    Blimey! I’m having a few connection issues myself but thinking I may be doing something wrong. I haven’t set up a profile yet, but I think it’s recognising me as a guest, so will look into that later today. You are having a miserable experience with loads of unacceptable issues. Can’t you reject the car or change to something else?
