I had no idea it was happening until it popped up to say it had finished.

Yes, mine told me it had updated exactly that yesterday

It was and has been in Europe for years, even with leaded petrol. We had 2 star (90 RON) up to 5 star (101 RON) from the 1960's onwards - prior to that it was a bit vague. After lead was removed we had Premium (95 RON) and Super (97 to 99 RON)

That is correct

In the US the reverse camera has to be working for legal safety reasons. I didn't think that was the case in the UK??? It is frustrating as I suspect it is all working fine but just awaiting a software update.

Valeo Silencio. OEM blades on mine were very poor from new, probably because the car took a long time to reach me from Flat Rock

PZ5 is out now in Europe, not sure about the US. Significantly improved, especially reduced rolling resistance which was a PZ4 weakness compared to the PS4S and Continental Sport Contact 7

They are the PZ4's!

In the UK some of our 99 has no Ethanol. It says E5 but that is a maximum and one supplier, Esso, has no Ethanol in its 99 product still in some parts of the UK. Ethanol has a higher octane rating then petrol.

That 'stupid fuel hole' is extremely valuable at preventing misfuelling. It is obviously used across the Ford range and saves drivers a lot of money. Misfuelling is a big problem in Europe.

A torque convertor unlocks with a rapid increase in throttle to maximise torque multiplication and transfer. That is how they work!

It is a speed LIMIT not a mandatory minimum! Getting wound up by other drivers achieves nothing. Live and let live.

Agree the 'middle lane hoggers' can slow traffic down but ACC wouldn't slow anybody down in this situation as there would be nobody in front to make it slow the middle lane down.

You bought the wrong car then! Try an Alpine A110.

Several cars back but still going at the same speed. Losing a few car lengths makes ZERO difference to your overall journey time. There are reasons ACC doesn't ride less than a car length at 70mph - never mind the safety implications of being too close to the car in front, short distances...

And the problem with that is? You are probably still travelling at the same speed so no net loss.

Wow! Small man syndrome at its peak!

The distance is adjustable

It is hardly ACC fault that you failed to notice you were stuck behind a slow vehicle!

You will get used to his rhetoric. Basically if you don't do as he tells you then you are inadequate and your car will dissolve in 3 weeks.
