Cupra Born

I didn't take it as being smart. I guess it was an obvious question. It's odd though, I didn't select that option. I assumed it was to do with plugging into a house socket, not a charger.

I wonder if it's to do with the app. The routines section is broken for me in the app. I get a blank screen. I've raised a ticket with Cupra support.

I've been meaning to measure mine, I'm at 15k and starting to feel the back end slipping a bit more. I'm shocked they've lasted this long as a lot of people online said the Continental EcoContact 6 will barely do 8-10k. Need to get the back wiper as they didn't have it when getting the front so might do the tyres at the same time.

Did you have the upgrade done to software? Mine did that too post upgrade. I hadn't seen it before upgrade. It was on by default after upgrade I noticed it one day charging in work it was very slow. I won't be turning it back on.

I had the same problem with no routines and hence couldn't do timed charging. (Have a dumb home charger). I eventually managed to figure it out. My "home" location was no longer recognised by my car even though it was parked outside the house as always. It turned out that the Sat Nav was a little off for some reason. I managed to find an edit button for the Sat Nav which allowed the current car location to be reset as the home location. Enabled that and Hey Presto! Routines function came back working. I was certainly relieved as I didn't fancy needing to go to the dealer for a fix.

The update to the Cupra Born software has given me nothing but issues. The first was the inability to create charging routines. Then it was setting the reduce power option automatically, so I didn't have the car charged in the morning.

The latest issue is that the charging options on the app are inaccessible. Image below.

But when I try to access it, I get a blank screen. Image below.

I've raised the issue with Cupra Support. There first suggestion, delete and reinstall the app didn't work.

Is your phone Android or an iPhone, that might account for the different look? I'm on iPhone.

I'll try with a different phone actually. My wife has the app but I think she can only login as me. Not sure, but I'll check it out.

The reason I want access to this setting, is because the slow setting in the app works different to the one in the eManager in the car. With the slow setting in the app it can still charge to 80% overnight but the one in the eManager only gets to 40% or so.

He said we're not a fast fit, it will take a while.

I've to drop it in and take a replacement car and come back at end of day. They said they have plenty of Borns to give me this time, I mentioned I didn't like the Arona and he said yes, we've addressed that.

From the UK website. Anyone get this yet?

Some info on the Cupra site..New OTA update.

I put Aerotwins on mine, they aren't great I have to admit, I'm still getting a bit of judder from the passenger side.

That’s a great idea re sticky in the thread for new users

I asked my dealer about 3.2.1 - knows nothing about it even though other dealers around the country seem to have installed it on some cars. Brought my car to the dealer today for a Tyre recall check. While doing that they connected my car up to the Cupra system to check for potential updates (3.2.1??) etc. On returning the car they said my car's infotainment system was fully up to date and is now on 3.1................(even though my car was a wk51 2022 manufactured- which should have put it as 3.2 as apparently 3.2 was introduced from August 2022). I mentioned again about 3.2.1 introduction and the latest software update information from Cupra UK. Dealer said they would try to find out some more in a few days. On the way home playing with the infotainment system it did seem to be faster and more snappy in changing screens- or of course I could be deluding myself. I think I should go now and lie down in a dark room for an extended period. Seriously, can anyone shed more light on what Cupra is doing with software/ 3.2.1 etc etc?? - I would like to get clarity on what is exactly going on.

Not sure if this is totally accurate. I had my software updated at the dealers a few weeks back but it still says outstanding when I look up my VIN.
