The 2019 Leon Copra 290 thread

The electronic hand brake in the Cupra. It is meant to auto engage when you switch the car off and put it in Park?

Mine doesn’t and have it manual enable it after switching car off.

You have to enable this somewhere in the settings I think. Mine puts on the hand brake automatically.

In my GTD you had to firstly enable it via the (A) button behind the pull up flap. Unsure if it’s same? The little LED should be constantly lit?

No problem, i couldn't confirm as mine's currently on the road to me today!

Also if it is the same system in all VAG cars, if there's a green handbrake symbol shown on dash, means its basically active in 'hill hold' or temporary as still in 'D' drive. If its red, means handbrake is on perm, either gear shift in 'P' or you've opened a door etc.

Does anybody else's infotainment keep crashing and restarting itself? I use Android Auto and I think every day this week it has crashed and restarted itself at some point. Particularly annoying when you're using it for navigation and you don't know where you are.

Yep, same here. And it does this with every phone I've tried... In some versions of Android Auto it doesn't happen quite as often, but it's never completely gone. I hope it can be resolved with an infotainment update.

It's not related to the specific phone though, it happens with my Galaxy S10, my OnePlus 5, and my Nexus 6P... It's also not related to whatever you have running on your phone in the background.
It's only bearable because Android Auto automatically restarts after some time and resumes navigation.

I have also used an S9+ and now an S10+ and I had only one crash over the past 3 months that I got the car. The thing is that when I set the phone to auto steam music via BT when connected, the infotainment gives me an error message trying to read the music in the SD card. Looks like a bug of some sort.

But are you using Android Auto? The infotainment error is probably because you haven't given it permission to access your storage on your phone.

 

[Stefan147]

Yeah I'm using AA which is not offered officially here in Greece but you can get the .apk and make it work. Actually I never use the built in maps since I can have Google maps. Permission is given and everything works fine. The thing is that if I start streaming audio via BT (or AA) I can't switch to audio from the SD. I get an error message that the SD card can not be read.

Interesting, which version are you using? I remember I had some versions that didn't crash very often, but only once is better than I've experienced.

Ah, I thought you meant the SD card in your phone.

 

[Stefan147]

Version is 4.0.590434

Probably the best I have used so far.

 

[KKaybe]

I'm using a Google Pixel 3 and not had any issues thus far. I only had one instance where the infotainment got stuck on the Cupra logo and after 10 minutes of the car being off it reset and worked fine.

Had my magnetic grey 290 Lux for about a fortnight now and very pleased so far. Only quibbles have been due to my naivety in assuming car play was wireless and that wireless charging worked on all phones!

Like others have said baffled as to having to reselect "individual" each time to get the eco mode working.

Spotify seems temperamental on Car Play, sometimes not offering the full menu, your library etc?

Another annoyance...
Temps not displaying until it gets to working temperature. Why the heck would anyone code it like that?? You can see it displays the coolant temp as 90 on dash.
The fact that I can’t have oil temp displayed on the dashboard also frustrates me. Am I supposed to look on the center screen while going crazy fast to check on my oil temp to satisfy my ocd? But of course I can have fuel economy, radio stations and other completely useless data displayed.

 

[Cupra_2019]

Has anyone put over lays on the Cupra lettering on the rear yet? More specifically a mystery blue car?

Sometimes the central display temp doesn't update, switch screens back and forth and it may suddenly appear.

The oil temp sensor won't show a reading before 50C, this may be caused by the specific temperature sensor not being able to give an accurate reading below that temperature.
