Re: New Grandland driver

Welcome to the forum. The greyed out info bugs every Grandland owner (email Vauxhall to complain, I have !) You're lucky to be getting over 40mpg, I've had my Elite Nav auto 1.2 petrol for nearly 2 months now and I'm averaging just over 35mpg, a figure I'm disappointed in. The list of small things t...

Re: Navi 5.0 IntelliLink touchscreen navigation and infotainment system

My Grandland is ok so far apart from the poor performance of the cooled seats and auto gearbox lag. I will be asking the dealer to look at those 2 things when it goes in for the new grill to be fitted. I'll also be telling them about the grey parts of the infotainment unit. What I am struggling with...

Pheasant damage

https://i.imgur.com/hvO0zhp.jpg This the damage to the front grill from hitting the pheasant the other day. Took it into my dealers body shop for a quote yesterday. Just received the email from them - £422 !!! The grill is so thin it looks like it would break very easily so be careful of pheasants!...

Re: Engine/auto gearbox lag on accelerating

Looks like I'll be taking my Grandland in sooner than I thought! I hit a pheasant this afternoon about 25/30 mph which has damaged the front grill and broken off the Vauxhall badge. Dread to think what that is going to cost !!!

Re: Engine/auto gearbox lag on accelerating

I'm experiencing the exact same symptoms with my elite nav 1.2 auto. I may take it back in as they also need to look at my cooled seats. I can hear the fan as it's noisy but can't feel any cool air!

Re: The Long Thread of how many MPG you get...

Filled up the tank yesterday, zeroed the trip meter then drove onto a duel carriage way then the M1. This had a 50 mph speed limit due to road works. After about 10 miles of this speed my average consumption was showing 50.3 mpg ! Just proves it can be done but wouldn't like driving at 50 mph all th...

My first fault!

Driving back home this afternoon with the a/c on and my drivers seat on full cooling. I noticed my back was getting hot but couldn't play around too much with the controls for obvious reasons. Got home and once parked on my drive I had a play around with the cooled seats control. If I just turn on t...

Only a small thing but it's bugging me !

I notice that the outside temp display on the infotainment screen is greyed out and not highlighted white like the other info along the top of the screen.

I can't see it at all with my eyesight so is there a setting I've missed that will make it highlighted like the rest ?
