Looks good enough to me and not any different from mine. Remember it is just for help reversing so you can see if anything is in the way.

Thank you very much for your response. Learning that this is standard has put my mind at ease. :)

The camera occasionally lags
I can confirm mine also lags, but there's an interesting difference:
- the image might be 1-2 seconds delayed (with respect to the car movement) ONLY immediately after the car is started;
- there's never a delayed image at the end of the trip (more minutes or hours after the car was started)
The above make me belive it's somehow related to the system still "preparing" stuff in the background, after being wakened... :sleep:

p.s. the car is 2023, MY2024, SW v.1969
p.p.s. I never noticed this kind of behavior in the first 5-7 months; I never did a factory reset of the infotainment, but I occasionally force-reboot the system, trying to improve its responsiveness.

After I reached the authorized Cupra service center, they told me they were waiting for an update regarding several new issues with the facelifted Cupra Formentor. Such as '' https://www.youtube.com/shorts/frLLY8jpsiE '' a problem with the driver-side power window mechanism in my car. Also you can check the picture i uploaded, there is another problem about home coming system, before the welcome animations finish, if you start the car, the rear lights show an error. :D

Ok, I didn't notice you have the Facelift model... I hope you'll have less issues/errors than the previous model owners.

they were waiting for an update regarding several new issues with the facelifted Cupra Formentor.
They never seem to learn... there's really a wide spectrum of errors on most new models. Even on the facelift version - which should actually benefit from fixing all the errors and problems of the pre-facelift.
Just imagine that the same HW, infotainment and the associated SW are used on a quite large number of models across the VAG group. So the amount of feedback from users/clients to the manufacturer must be impressive!

They might think that if they produce a completely flawless model, no one would buy the next one. :D

I unlocked my '23 Formentor the other day, got in to drive and the wing mirrors had not folded out. Locked and unlocked and they unfolded , who knows why these things happen . Never happened before and never since!

It's not just Cupras though, most cars these days have these technical quirk's.
