Thanks.

Now just got to find one of the old Windows laptops in the attic after we swapped everything out for Macs some time ago (can't even run it on a W10 VM as none of them are laptops).

I've got NCS running on a Win 10 tablet, the install was manual though and took a bit of time.

It took longer than expected to fit my AP BBK so I’ve not had time to try coding out the DBC. Since I’m flying back to Aus tomorrow, that’ll have to wait until the car lands in Sydney. First impressions of the AP kit were very impressive, albeit on wet roads. The DBC is more intrusive than ever now so it’s definitely got to go!

Just a quick note... Since doing this my hill start assist has stopped working, not a problem to me but may be to others?

That’s interesting, I thought I had coded mine out with 'HSA not active' and was going to put it back on. Assuming the only code you touched was the bb_rab?

Yeah, I'll double check the coding today but I did only change that value.

Oh that's a shame if so, I was hoping to enable the HSA again as much as I generally don't like electronic interference, in this case given the car lives around some fairly steep hills I would like to have it back on. If that's not possible then, oh well, the braking was transformed at silverstone, so much more consistent, I'm not going to put DBC back on in order to gain HSA. The handbrake isn't that hard to use! Feel like I'm getting lazy in my old age :D

Tom, yesterday at the track mate, this bloody thing bugged me to no end, esp when being on it.

You could feel the brake line being pressurized, I gotta admit though, its uncanny, and rather off putting. Def gonna look into getting rid of the DBC. The HSA isn't an issue for me lol
