DanielG Posted 9, July 2014 Report Share Posted 9, July 2014 Funny my 2002 172 has no issues flashing high beams when head lights are on. Are you guys ok? Or am missing something here? I pull the stalk and on they come just before the main switch to high beam latches. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk The way they work on the 172 I believe changes if you have them in auto (ie. stalk is in off position) vs having the headlights manually on.

R182 Posted 9, July 2014 Report Share Posted 9, July 2014 Maybe I need to try to be more delicate. On other cars the separation of the functions has been a bit more defined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quadrastu Posted 9, July 2014 Report Share Posted 9, July 2014 Speed limiter in the 265 can't be used whilst driving in sport mode. It will return the car to normal if you activate the limiter. This. Plus how to operate rear window spray Plus how to match dual zone by pressing auto. All stuff I have learnt at the three year ownership mark. Thanks forumers. Pah......we could just read the handbooks to find this out but as males we don't need to, or have the time to........ha ha I've also discovered holding the "auto" button and altering the temp changes them together......I do have big hands/fingers so doesn't feel awkward to me.

OK ... more research conducted this morning and what's above is correct, the behaviour changes when not in auto mode. In manual it acts as you expect it to, you pull the stalk and the lights come on - then pull further and it latches (well defined, no delicacy required). However, in auto mode it appears to mechanically block (rather agricultural ) the stalk from moving back the full distance. I can sort of see how the stalk logic could become a bit challenging with the inclusion of the auto lights ... but it wouldn't have been that hard to overcome.

Nutjob Posted 10, November 2014 Report Share Posted 10, November 2014 This is more to do with my OCD but it bugs me how the passenger temp doesn't change with the driver temp when climate control is changed. I know you can set them the same by pressing the auto button for a few secs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you can set them the same by pressing the auto button for a few secs. What confuses me more is that in the Fluence (and I assume maybe lower end Meganes) the climate control in there specifically has a button to turn off dual mode so it changes together...

R182 Posted 10, June 2016 Report Share Posted 10, June 2016 Love this thread but misplaced it for a while. Anyways ... always surprised that a Clio II will fit 2.7m lengths of timber inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
