I use Williams waterless car cleaning/polish bought off Ideal World. £20 for 4x 1 litre sprays which should do 6 medium size cars.. Has Canuaba wax in it. Protect paintwork from vandal spray paint - use some Williams locally and it dissolves the spray paint BUT you must have Williams on before the vandal spray. Same with road tar - use Williams locally and it dissolves the tar. Use with microfibre cloths to apply and another for polish. Last summer I then started to use Carplan Number 1 on top of Williams. Car stays cleaner longer, then needs less cleaning effort. £8 from Wilko (and other places), one spray bottle will do 4 medium cars, so very cost effective - both Number 1 and Williams. I don't like using the standard type wax polish, takes too long, and in the summer it dries hard and difficult to remove. Williams can be applied sunny weather and damp weather.

I was using Autoglym and still do, but I find the super resin polish has too much filler in it so switched to Meg's I do like the Quik detailer but it's a bit on the pricey side, but they sell Final inspection that works out miles cheaper and seems to be the same product If I'am in the mood i might get the Gold Class paste out but it's a lot of graft

I'm still using a bottle of Mer that must be more that 20 years old. That shows how often I polish my cars.

I found it . Setup...generals...change monitor....no auto

Try disconnecting both leads from the battery and charging it, I suspect the capacitor box (black box) at the side of the battery is drained and trying to charge off your charger. The capacitor is trying to pull a lot more volts than your charger can handle and the charger's overload protection circuit is kicking in.

This is the latest episode of #TheCarinaJourney for you to all to watch, thank you.

Here we go, for those of you that haven't subscribed to my YouTube channel, this is last weeks episode.

As well as Ian's answer above, the car apparently has four warm up phases, and will manage the start/stop of the petrol engine so that it does not need to return to to the S1 phase when the car is in 'ready'. As you probably know, the drivetrain in the Auris is virtually identical to a Prius gen 3 (2009-2016, and also any Lexus CT200h and Prius+). This Prius link details the warm up phases from a cold start, your Auris should be exactly the same. https://priuschat.com/threads/gen3-warming-up-stages.76501/ HTH

Hi thecar will turn on and off as and when required according to the settings eg heating / charge

Does CarPlay display turn information on the dashboard then? Does CarPlay work when my mobile phone is in my jacket pocket?

I suspect so, I've had many a modified or "project" cars over the years.
