| Yes, on my 2017 at least a long press on the reduce button turns it into standard cruise. Need to do it every time you start using cruise though. |

Indeed. Best thing about it is that it can be disabled with long press on the reduce distance button.
Unless you like being driven by something that behaves like a bad learner driver of course.. |

| I get fed up of the ACC. I always push and hold the reduce distance button & revert the system to standard cruise. Wish I could lock it out permanently with a CCF setting. |

The trims run from front to rear either side of the sunroof glass and can be levered out with a plastic trim removal tool. (This is where you can fit the optional roof rails)
There are quite a few ... |

Don't be like me and take an impromptu shower at the first tight corner of the morning. Pop off those trims and check the drains at least yearly.
Both of mine were blocked, attacked with a long pla ... |

Heads up for those of you with L405 cars with HUD. Genuine windscreens appear to be as common as rocking horse do do. Back ordered with no ETA for months.
Mine will fail the MOT next week so it's ... |

| Indeed. I guess the advantage of the CCF change is you can re-enable it on the switch if you want though. |

Seems to work. The whole CCF write is a scary thing, with ignition off/on/off Christmas tree lights and some of the car settings need re-inputting afterward (AEB off etc.)
However - the car now rem ... |

| But of course it is, with access to the OBD port. I wonder if the hirer either forgot to lock the car or had the lock signal jammed? |

I've a 'standard' 5.0SC MY17 and I haven't noticed anything like that, no.
Sounds like tensioner issues, but I've never heard of anything like that from a late model with low mileage... |
