Updated My Renault android app

Just notic e today that the Android Renault app has been updated. We've gained a find my vehicle button between the climate and charge start buttons.
The downside is the app seems to be miss reporting as it shows not charging but my Zappi confirms 1.4Kw going in.

Re: Passenger front airbag issue.

Sort of fix d this Seat sensor measures capacitance (the amount of water in the lump sitting on it) And from that judg s if it's an adult, child or car seat. My wife's gel cushion lowers the capacitance because the person is further from the seat. A sheat of baking foil under the bottom mesh of the ...

Re: Charging impossible

It seems there is a known issue with the Renault Megane charging making it not operate correctly with some chargers (notably the Myengeri Zappi but also some commercial service station chargers. Renault are aware and apparently a firmware update will follow. I'd raise this with the dealer (whom will...

Re: Car wont turn on

Great because it raises the seat height and makes it comfy. But we've noticed the Mégane switched the passenger airbag off. It seems to think ...

Re: Charging impossible

Renault should have offered you a road side charge option. That's what the dealer told us.
