I had no idea about the air intake going through the bonnet and like Numb Thumbs I’m wondering about Bull dust when I head west next year (COVID). I think I’ll take a spare air filter with me. Does anyone know if you can get after market reusable air filters for the D5 or will using one void my warranty I wonder?
On another issue, as soon as I picked up my new D5 I had my auto electrician add a Redarc Pro electric break unit as well as an Andersen plug near the towbar for power to the van. Even though the D5 came with a 12 pin plug as standard my auto electrician changed it because it was a sealed unit and he couldn’t wire it to suit my van. The manual says my D5 should recognize when the caravan is connected and a message should come up to that effect but I get nothing so I don’t know if the car is recognizing the van is connected or not. I’m wondering if there might have been a sensor in the original plug that enabled the car to recognize when the caravan is connected.
I have also tried to follow the prompts to set up the trailer reverse function but that doesn’t work either. Sometimes I get a little icon with a jack knifed trailer with an X on it on the reverse camera screen. Perhaps you don’t get this function on the SE version.
