How do you put it in night mode all the time?
I have a 2017 tech line how do I get to put my iPod into it for some music?
I don't understand why, when I connect the phone via bluetooth, all the playlist I play are missing songs...it seems the system see only some of them. Like a playlist of 900 songs, I can see only 250 of them and the same seems to happen with usb key...anyone have the same issue?
I bought a second hand vauxhall corsa 65 plate which didn't have sat navigation in the car could I get it put in the car now ???
well done OPEL
Middle car screen can be very unresponsive. Happened to me on the Sri and elite nav models. How do you access the saved sat nav addresses?
My nav o my takes me to the street and not the house number is there a way of fixing this ?
Dunno why he said the bass is poor, I have the 2016 1.4 turbo and my stereo sounds so good playing anything with a beat..
I ordered this car with premium speakers. What kind of speakers where in this car? Are they the premium speakers as well?
How do you go about updating the Sat Nav maps? and what is the cost? My Insignia is 4 years old now and many of the new roads around my area arn't listed on the Sat Nav

Which version of Intellilink is this? Can I consider CD 600 as similar to this one?
I have a Vauxhall 2021 astra Griffin, it has 7 inch intellilink on the car. I want o get the 8 inch system will it be possible
The IntelliLink is a nightmare to use as a sat nav for storing addresses. You can only store addresses as a 'Contact' and a contact can be anything, a phone number, email address, three different types of destination. The default is to save it as a 'Work Destination' which is extremely annoying. If you put in a post code, it stores the address as the post code which is pretty useless if you are faced with a list of postcodes to choose from when trying to retrieve it from the list. Glad I didn't ditch my Tom Tom when i got this with a new car.

It’s ok while it lasts I’ve just had to pay for a new one it affected the usb cables parking sensors and various things I’d give it 1 out of five !
You know in my state in Australia you aren’t allowed to use a mobile because it’s a distraction. This is a good system but takes your eyes off the road.
Sorry she said astra doesn't have speed cameras on the nav... It does I have a 66 plate astra k and the intellilink has the option to turn speed cameras on or off 🤔

it's an option. It's into a 1000€ extra pack if i remmember.
I'm verry curious if you have the 7 inch infotainment system without the navigation system on the Astra does it have Android Auto and can you do smartphone mirroring? If it can do that, you can use the navigation from your phone

I own a 66 plate Astra with the intellilink system. Several month's out of the 3 year warranty, the screen just went blank! Is this a common fault? My local vauxhall garage is quoting £700 to install a new one, NOT happy.

I’m not sure if you resolved it but definitely try go to a third party member as it could be some simple coding issues and Vauxhall could just be trying to extort you
I have just bought a 65 plate TechLine Astra, but can't find the Android Auto link on the IntelliLink screen, is there anyway this can be added? If you have a link to a how to video that would be helpful, thanks

AFAIK Andriod Auto was an optional extraon 65 plate Astras, you had to pay to activate it. I think you need to take it to Vauxhall dealership and ask them to do it for you. It was standard on 16 plate onwards.

Yes you can turn the brightness down by using the instrument cluster dimmer by the lighting controls

I have this car and it annoyed me that she said it takes 8 steps to setup satnav that's a load of rubbish. you can set a destination from your phone with the Vauxhall app, it will then send it to your car while your sat having a cup of tea on your sofa. To be honest though I don't use it as I use android auto which has google maps, I like it better so if your thinking of buying the astra don't bother paying extra for satnav when android auto does it anyway.
