No ... no engine vibration issue ... just the messed up electronics.

From what i recently found out...carbon build up stems from Direct Injection engines on the intake valves,since DI is common on diesel engines...i believe they will also be subjected to carbon build up...thats why i recently learnt.

I think the key is mandatory full load usage for Diesel engine to avoid carbon build up.

- TPMS misbehaving, warning every time car is switched on of wrong tyre pressure on every tyre
- key wrongly recognized, e.g. my key seen as my wife's - only one key in car at the time
- serious navigation issues ... parked 100m from destination, system wants to send me on a 1 mile loop
- main screen won't boot for several minutes
- reverse cam failure
- arbitrarily disconnects phone while on call and reconnects several minutes later
- system jammed brake when trying to reverse park even though there was no obstruction anywhere - several attempts
the list goes on ...

I have the same issue with the keys. The SA says need a software upgrade that takes a whole day so must put car overnight. Catch is software still not here!
The jam break may be due to cats/dogs or branches near the lot. Sometimes the auto parking also stops operations because of dangerous objects nearby! Then must manually park.
Do share anything else.
Thanks

the car has already been in once for the keys and reprogrammed ... but still persists ...
and i was parking manually ... and there was nothing around me ... stupid auto brake engaged each time ... tried to park multiple times ... eventually found another spot where i was able to park !!!

Very clean after the blast!
And those chemical recommended before oil change to clean the engine, do they really perform the magic clean?
