I had no bongs or issues of any kind for first 8 months. Update happened and freezing temperatures (and car not garaged as it was for first 5 months) and now this happens every other journey (see video), not quite bongs but first time happened all the front assist / impact protection / led special dimming headlights all came up as not working.

Worried I won’t be covered under warranty since I fitted the fit cam x dashcam and also fitted r paddles myself.

If anyone has any suggestions on what to do / how to fix let me know.

Looking at getting an obd eleven (not sure if should get std, pro or ultimate) to both fix this and then enable dual maps, have auto stop/start default to off (although that may be possible in existing menus, just not looked hard enough)

Go on then I've voted. I've just been not trying to tempt fate, even after nearly two years of ownership.
Quoting myself here but it did indeed become fate. Quite amazingly the very next day after I voted (Oct 23) I had a warning appear on the dash about the car needing to visit the dealership as some sort of error had appeared, it's from then on the problems started. I'll continue this in the correct thread so head there if you want to read about my issues, it's not a short story.
