After an extensive reinstall of the cars software it's now running great however the nifty rear camera washer has stopped working even though there is fluid in the main reservoir. Not sure if the camera wash is fed from here. Any ideas welcome!

Yes, anything related to radar such as collision avoidance, lane change assist, etc was showing faults and not working. The bose started playing only from one side then completely packed up and an instance where the car wouldnt start after a 5 minute trip to the local store showing a range of battery/charging warnings. 3 hours later it rectified itself. On speaking to Porsche Sutton Coldfield they just asked me to take it in for a software reinstall, no explanation what was wrong with it but I suspect it must have been a glitch on early cars.

Keep pressing the wash button, if it’s been drained or dried out it can take well over 10 presses before the line is primed again.
Thanks, thats done the trick
