Re: smart brake warning light

It is normal but it shouldn't happen. It's a design fault. I've had several cars fitted with this type of system and none of them had this condensation issue that disrupts the connected features.

Re: Front parking sensor's

My factory fitted system is activated by selecting reverse or by pressing the "P" button to activate the front sensors if you haven't previously selected reverse.

Re: uncomfortable front seat

Poor lumbar support for me.............MUCH better with the full leather seats though, I wish I'd got them........

Re: New car from outside my dealers own stock. Questions to ask.

The leather seats are also more supportive in the lumbar region than the cloth/half leather ones.

Re: Front number plate holder

They all wobble a bit which is why I said what I did. Had you explained your diagnosis before then I wouldn't have wasted my time trying to assist..................Why not take it back to the dealer to sort out.

Re: Front number plate holder

Perhaps it's meant to be wobbly for pedestrian safety......................Fixing it rigid could be classed as a modification for insurance purposes and perhaps invalidate it?

Re: Battery charging query.

What sort of driving have you been doing.............Short journeys or multiple starts won't recharge the battery enough .

Re: Sun visors

It is possible to move the mirror sideways so it will miss the sun visors when they are pulled down. Check out the answers on these threads :- https://www.cx3forums.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=979&p=4956&hilit=sun+visor#p4956 https://www.cx3forums.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=152&p=7...

Re: How is TPMS affected by new tyres and valves?

They normally re-use the old valve for the transmitter type of TPMS. They should just replace the "O" ring seals if needed.
