    You could try www.here.com or the simple resolution is to do what I do, and have done in 2 Kuga's and my MME, is to use Android Auto. I find the display far better and traffic conditions etc far superior.

    I was looking at the "stock" page. Maybe they give a different time scale when you actually order. I would still be sceptical as to whether they can actually deliver in a week.

    I don't wish to sound pedantic, but if I remember correctly it says "from 1 week". If anyone orders one on a Monday and gets it by Sunday I will be VERY surprised.

    Unfortunately Ford in their infinite wisdom don't seem to be in any rush to deliver ANY cars from Dagtops. It seems that they will only send out full transporter loads to dealers. My dealer has 4 sold cars (not MME's) which he has been waiting for 3 weeks. If you KNOW that it is Dagtops then the...

    RFID Charging Card Question

    Short answer NO. We did get free access to certain charge points with the Blue Oval Charge, I think you still do, but you still had to pay for the KWh that you got. My advice is not to compare ANYTHING that the US have had or are given with our cars. Ford UK don't value our custom as much as...

    Nobody knows, not even Ford. Do you mean 'charge' logs? If so then in FP app.

    They have. But they have also taken away the 4 year 0% finance. It is now 2 years. Any longer its 3.9%. So unless you can put down a sizable deposit the savings only work out to about £1500. It just LOOKS good when they say the have dropped the price.

    Pre-conditioning

    I am like you, I too dislike the built in sat nav and always use AA. However, having said this I have inputted a destination a couple of times and then switched to AA. The nav app tab then goes to the bottom of the screen and when I have opened it during the trip it is on track. So I would...

    Fordpass no longer shows car location

    i have an android phone and my location is showing. It does say it's at No 6 when it is at No 4 but that is due to the crappy sat nav system. According to the built in system it never shows where it is as accurately as I think it should. That is why I always use android auto with google maps.

    Issues connecting to Octopus intelligent

    It could also be an issue with the car's location. My car says that, when it is in my garage at No4, it is at No 8. As Octopus Intelligent only works when the car is at "home", when the system talks to my car it is saying that is not at home. I believe there where also issues with FP not...

    Daily charging

    My daily commute is only 16 miles. I only charge when my SOC gets to about 60% and then only to 85%. I only charge to 100% on the rare occasion I go away for a few days.

    I've had 3, all AFTER the windscreen replacement recall. All done by autoglass for £25. Heated screen doesn't cause any problems.
