    Blind Spot Monitor / BSM,


    Speed must be above 30 km/h to activate Totwinkel assistant. Often in city when driving in queues that's not case. I don't find it useful if you first have to check your speed. The car is eyecatcher and really beautiful to drive but there is so much inside that should have been better in 50k€ car. Camera is from year 2000, software is slow, it takes minutes to awake after ignition, display quality is also below average, wireless phone charging is slow 2013 standard etc...

    Blind spot monitor is useless. It should work whenever there is a vehicle in blind spot like it works with other manufacturers. What use of it if I have to first check if I’m within rules. If there is a disapointing tech in car then it’s BSM

    After last update, 2 months ago, my phone would disconnect and would be invisible to the system. I had to reset the system to factory settings and connect phone from the start. In addition I didn't notice anything new in update, only this problem.

    Yes, washer fluid sensor is really odd to be missed. I would also add wireless charger which is 1.1 standard from 2013 and screen resolution and responsiveness. It takes minutes to load after ignition.

    In this price range, as a customer, I simply expect that no more savings will be made X (

    I agree with that. The 508 cost almost twice as much as my last car and is much weaker and cheaper in many ways.

    • seat heating on the back
    • Double glazing
    • Sufficiently dimensioned insulating rubbers
    • Flocked wheel arch and underbody
    • Underbody protection
    • cool / heatable cup holder
    • electric steering column
    • adjustable pedals
    • fuckin 'sensor for windshield washer fluid
    • heated wiper system
    • Steering wheel heating
    • Working radio / sat nav: P
    • Additional electrical heating for warm air from a cold start
    • Separately regulated, automatically dimming mirrors
    • and much more


    Oh yes, I mourn my old fat man ... But he didn't have one thing: automatic steering.

    I also came from Mondeo V and I'm very pleased with 508 wipers comparing to Mondeo. On Mondeo I had to wait and wait for sensor to detect rain, it was very slow although they were set on highest sensitivity level. Here, on other hand reactions are very fast, although it seems that it does stop at traffic lights, at least by my opinion. Only thing I miss is single wiping function. Actually to be honest, I had sensors on VW, Opel, Toyota, Ford... and was never quite happy with technology.

    Has anybody solved the rattling problem? I'm paying a visit to workshop on Wednesday because it's so annoying, but according to telephone call they don't have a clue ...

    Been to the shop around 3 or 4 times for this issue. two previous repair attempts failed or they're only successful for a few weeks. the last one was a complete disassemble of the glass and roof mechanic and as of now the issues are gone.

    If you're suffering from the same issues as I have, you can simply check by moving the cloth backwards and then reach with your hand back into the roof until you reach a small metal strip. That's the part that caused the initial rattle

    Thanks, I'll try that. Did they remove it or just fixed it? At least I know now what is irritating me :)
