Re: Niro 4 Hybrid close to perfection - 3 minor dislikes.

My Niro 4 Hybrid is a 2017 model. If there is a menu letting the colour to be changed I'd love to know how to find it. Thanks a lot, I've never noticed the laybys on the map - I will double check next time I pass them. I get verbal messages telling me to turn right (into the layby) and then immediat...

Re: Niro 4 Hybrid close to perfection - 3 minor dislikes.

Glad you like the red - just a different taste I guess. Not sure if map shows laybys but they are physically there - each about 150/200 yds long. Each time I pass satnav tells me to turn right and immediately right again. Satnav doesn't see them when I pass them on their side of the road - very stra...

Niro 4 Hybrid close to perfection - 3 minor dislikes.

First one is the red illumination across the dash when driving at night - would happily pay to get it changed to green. Second one is that I regularly pass two laybys on the opposite side of the road. Every time I pass them the satnav tells me to turn right and the immediately right again - satnav j...

There are plenty of apps in the app store for pet monitoring. They can alert you if your dog starts barking. allows you see what they are doing and speak to th...

Re: All about Connected Services - check these links.

Had my Niro 4 about 18 months now. Use connected services all the time, it's a brilliant system. Don't like talking to the car with AA, have found it can make mistakes ! Re speed camera's - I get a few beeps a couple of hundred or so yards before the camera with it's position highlighted on the scre...

Re: Lead time/waiting time

Speed camera's. I regularly pass a of speed camera which used to be without getting a warning. Know nothing about smartphones and leave it permanently in the car, using it for nothing else. Somehow (not sure how) enabled speed camera warnings on the phone and now get a warning jingle and a symbol on...

Re: All about Connected Services - check these links.

I hope the 'tomtom.com' links I provided will be reassuring. Connected Services (using the built in 'tomtom') seem to be totally reliable - have found Android Auto not to be 100%. There are two destinations I use, where AA falls down. The first, AA tells me to turn left instead of right to reach the...
