VF MyLink Questions

I don't know how it's worded ... it's something like remember settings per key or remember settings per driver or something like that.
The problem Derekthetree noted in the post above this is a symptom of the same thing.

I've tried turning off the key personalisation option when I read about it here. Didn't affect the the random behaviour of the USB playback in my case.
I've learned to live with it.

Couldn't find anything in relation to customizing the key.

with the vehicle running go into the mylink settings and look for vehicle then find personalization by driver and turn it off.
that will disable the different settings applied to each key and make one set of settings global.

remote starting can still have a different setting though.

just don’t do it in a closed garage

Wish the many vehicle options were accessible in MyLink while ignition was in ACC rather than RUN. It would make it safer to play with settings in the garage rather than having to move the vehicle outside with the engine running bit brain dead to have done it that way I think

Depends on what firmware you currently have...

You know you can hold the engine start button, with the key in the car, for about 8-10 seconds without putting your foot on the brake and it will give you the same access as if the car were running but the engine stays off (much like turning the key to 'on' in a traditional ignition)? Minus things like instantaneous fuel data of course. But you can certainly adjust all the settings in mylink, bimodals included.

It will stay on for about ten minutes and automatically switch off to preserve the battery.
