Hi all,,

New to the forum so forgive me if this has been asked already.

i picked up my new grandland elitle 1.2 petrol manual 3 days ago, and i am having serious issues with the cars wifi system.

it will not connect to any wifi system home or apple/ samsung mobile data so cant seem to do much with the sat nav system.

also seems no speed camera warnings or live updates and yet it shows as active on vauxhall webiste ?

The car is missing vauxhall connect and the e button is missing too, vauxhall say thats why the system does not have vauxhall connect ?

Also missing rear usb ports which is a pain but not omg ,

Hill assist don;t work nearly had a heart attack when the car stopped and rolled backwards grrr and yes its switched on.

The car is showing on vauxhall as a grandland x model under the vin number and vauxhall can;t explain why this is when its clearly a 22 plate new model ,

Has anyone else had this issues and any advice about the sat nav as i need to use live updates with traffic and be able to connect the system to the wifi and it keeps saying enter network key and i have used 3 different systems nothing works

thanks all, and again sorry if this has been asked imm still learning how to use the forum.

Hi nickg1978 and Welcome to the forum

Have you made sure that the Bluetooth tethering on your phone is on as your speed camera live updates etc wont work without this being activated.
Have you checked with your phone connected etc it shows sharing internet connection on the Nav Screen?
Hill assist on my Grandland X 68 plate is great. If yours is not working it may be a fault. If your not happy take it back to the dealership and get them to test it as its only 3 days old.
Hope this is some help.

Just want to check you have you enabled the separate Bluetooth Tethering option? as this makes the internet connection to be used.

The Bluetooth list under the name of your phone on the nav screen where it says audio calls etc does it say something like internet connection?

It may affect this. On your phone in settings it should have something like Hotspot and Tethering which is normally under network and internet this should then show Bluetooth tethering .

thank you, got it, after alot of playing around, it seems the issue was my phone settings was switched off for mobile data via bluetooth, as past cars have just used the phones wifi to connect, but at least now tom tom is showing at the bottom of the cars sat nav, i will test this later.

now to figure out how to get speed camera warnings lol but more important how to make the sat nav screen bigger as its only about 7 inches and pictures show it will cover the whole screen, i have read the manual which really don;t help lol

on the plus side was amazed at the led pixel headlights last night doing a dance when i unlocked the car, looks cool
