Fitted an Echo Dot and now Alexa is working great :D The voice recognition is a lot better than the one on the idrive.

For anyone thinking of doing the same these two vids are easy to follow (Even for me) and the results are great.

Have her a quick wash this morning and managed to get it done by half ten! That must be a record, when I say I’m going to give the car a quick wash it usually takes about four hours :lol: .

Also got myself booked in for an mot and hand brake adjustment, no matter what I tried I couldn’t get the lock out mechanism to catch the hook, even with the longest flat head I own and a lot of brute force. :roll:

I had new tyres earlier this week too ready for a little road trip to Amsterdam :)

My gear stick feels loose now as I twisted a lot. Have I unscrewed something? Or have I done damage? Would not turn before.
