Good day, very glad that I found this forum. I'm trying to get more information about the infotainment of the DS 7 particularly Android Auto Wireless. Has anybody tried this? - Thank you for your help

Thanks for the reply, I was looking for information about Wireless Android Auto. (Already tried Google myself) Maybe somebody here has done it as I have tried but not working. Thank you.

There was a bit about wireless Android in the second link - but even if you have connected wifi - that has actually been activated in the notifications or applications menu, it seems that you still need to connect a compatible smart phone via USB - which would indicate it is not compatible with 'wireless' versions of Android Auto - just the wired connection.

Some more info here, but if BMW aren't incorporating it until sometime this year, I suspect it may not be available with DS either as yet.

Hello everyone in this community, i recently purchased a ds7 performance line 2018 (2nd hand) and the only issue I'm having is with the LED sidelamps not working, I think they are part of the DRL system but it doesn't matter what position the lever is the lights are always off. I took the car to Arnold Clark (where I bought the car) and after an entire day there they said they couldn't find anything wrong with the car, although the lights still not coming on. they advised I should go to a DS dealer to get it sorted, does anyone here have a clue of what can be the problem?
Thanks

It may be a configuration issue with the BSI. There are settings that determine if and when the DRLs come on and whether they are in combo with other lights. All these settings are dependent on country too. It is possible that the BSI has not been configured correctly for the correct lights.

DRLs have been a legislative requirement since February 2011, so your car most have them working to pass the MOT. As this vehicle is a DS badged vehicle, you will need to get it back to a DS dealer as they have more training in the DS branded vehicles. It was only early DS3, DS4 and DS5 vehicles that were generally Citroen badged that they can confidently deal with at a Citroen dealership. The more complex range of DS vehicles will need a DS dealership to look at.

On this model, they should be on all the time in the day and dim when the other headlamps are on.
