I'm guessing it's standard here that you get a fob, an NFC card and the app to use.

Coming from a much older car, the idea of not having a fob/key is super weird for me.

As there will be two of us using the car, I'm wondering what others do. Does the app really only allow one user/address per car?

If you're a card user. How do you like it? Do you just keep it in your pocket like you would a key? Does it work consistently?

I’ve had my seal for some time, but I haven’t solved the mystery of what i think is a lock door button next to the close boot button in the boot. It would be very useful if I could find out how to use it. Can you solve the mystery?

I’m hoping someone has a suggestion. On my way home from work at 8pm on Saturday I hit a pothole and immediately blew out my rear passenger side tyre. Fortunately I was only 8km from home so my wife came and got me. I finally found the tyre repair kit while I was waiting for her but chose not to use it as the tyre deflated instantly so I assume it’s damage it won’t be able to fix. I went back the next day with my own pump and it couldn’t get the pressure past 6 psi.

The thing is that I had already ordered and paid for a set of 4 Michelin Primacy 5 from Costco, but the initial 4 week lead time has blown out to 6 weeks. I called Costco and asked if it would be ok if I had RACQ tow my car to them ready for when the tyres arrive. Despite going through several layers of management they insisted that due to liability issues they would tow my car if it was left in their carpark. So my only option would be to get RACQ to tow the car to my house and then have to pay for someone to tow it to Costco when the tyres finally arrive (they are now saying it will be a further 4 weeks).

My remaining idea is to get a cheap/used rim and tyre of a similar size (probably not identical because they are hard to come by) just to allow me to move the car home and then to Costco and then potentially keep this one for any future events. Will this work?

In everyone’s experience here (and I know that it can vary wildly), how long after contract / vehicle allocation did it take for your Seal to be delivered?

I signed for a white premium last week, contract came through today with no expected delivery date, but have all the relevant stock / vehicle identifiers too.

Hoping it’s quick (as I’m itching to get behind the wheel!) but if I have to suffer without it for a while longer, I guess that’s ok ahah

Has anyone come up with a solution, or how do you manage, with the indicators always turning off too early?

I was just abused for "not indicating".
