Diesel are chain, and these also have an issue with that, older engines have a 7mm chain which is problematic and newer ones have an 8mm better chain.
All above engines shared between Citroen/Peugeot/Opel/Vauxhall models

Only the 1.2 petrol uses a wetbelt. 1.6 petrol doesn't use a wetbelt.Jw427 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 20, 2023 8:30 amPetrol engines are only the Wet Belt typeGary.st270 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 19, 2023 5:59 pm Hi I have the 2.0 turbo diesel elite auto 2019 does anyone know if this model has the wet belt issue

Weird cabin pressure increase when driving 30mph and under - doesn’t occur every run out but when it does its uncomfortable enough to get the kids whining - dropping windows a touch rids the problem but we find this both weird and annoying.
68 plate 1.2 petrol Elite Nav - managing pretty fine without the reverse camera but loving the sensors

Grandland X Elite, 2019, 1.2 AUTO 8 speed.
Personally, my auto gearbox doesn't feel very smooth within gears 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, they are a bit bouncy feeling and 50mpg is a total joke, in town, I'm like 20-29mpg and highway 30-40mpg.
I also do dislike the software, like always I wish there were more optional settings like auto-apply road sign recognition, Full mini-map display on the instrument cluster ect ect.
Otherwise, though compared to you I actually love my cooled seats, but do note they are 'Ventilated Seats', they are NOT technically 'Cooled' and definitely not very luxurious 'A/C Air-Conned' seats, they only blow/suck air around your back to help keep airflow and eventually help keep your back less sweaty, This is a mental hot take but I wouldn't even trade them for 100 more HP I like them that much, but also personally I just don't need more power, everyone who has been in my car couldn't really believe it was just a 1.2 Turbo driving it.
