Gosh, I can't wait to be contributing towards this thread in 2 1/2 weeks time, when I take delivery....
Upon delivery, maybe I should be handing them a list of items that need to be fixed before I drive it away.
1. InControl Apps
2. Gesture tailgate

Anything else that doesn't work as described??

This is too funny  2017 MY17 SDV6 SE

I'd keep Forward Alert in mind as another feature that's not perfect. Mine gives an ample early warning of some cars while other cars may as well be invisible. I'm still collecting my thoughts on whether some cars have an arse that's more reflective to radar and if others are in a stealth mode! Apologies in advance to Aberdeen drivers if they are rear ended while testing is ongoing.

...and in the morning I get an occasional welcome chime and a message on the dash telling me that the gearbox isn't in Park. it is of course. 2017 SDV6 Autobiography; Carpathian Grey, Ivory, Soft Close, Extended Grand Black.

Mine keeps telling me the smart key is no longer in the vehicle.

Not had the 'not in park' warning at all but agree on the temperamental forward alert. Also the adaptive cruise started alarmingly accelerating towards a car in front on a slight bend as if it didn't see it! I think the sensor isn't as good as my Golf R which was faultless, hence why they are seemingly doubling up on them in the Velar and presumably the RRS facelift.

Adaptive Cruise, Forward Alert and Brake Assist all rely on the same radar sensor. Based on the very variable results of my live testing of Forward Alert I'd definately not trust it to maintain a steady distance in cruise!

The Velar etc are using optical sensors (cameras) to gauge distance. 2017 SDV6 Autobiography; Carpathian Grey, Ivory, Soft Close, Extended Grand Black.
