Man I live in Fuerteventura. Here we use sunglasses to protect our eyes, not just while driving, but also walking. The sun is quite strong on them.

I wouldn’t call all sunglasses “pervert glasses”.

The main usage is still to reduce light. And if polarized, to reduce reflections (which also helps in some car windshields).

They are tools to protect our eyes and improve our vision under harsh circumstances. Before anything else.

In my phone (Google pixel) I mainly use Firefox for browsing. While Chrome is still the default browser. At some point I’ll change default also to Firefox. I didn’t do this because I’m not logged into some apps there.

Economy is still shit but at least it got better than a few years ago.

It will go to shit again in a few years/months

Fair enough. But that’s why I mentioned “some” and not “all”. I’ve never heard about a Toyota impacted by this issue.

Mitsubishi are definitely impacted. Some Mazda too according to some people posting. But I’ve read less posts about Mazda. They must be using some similar Bluetooth receivers in the infotainment system.

This is possibly the first post when this issue originated but then in January 2025 they improved it with a workaround that works till today, but before connection was always automatic without any workaround.

Anyway. Every single time you start the engine you need to go to Bluetooth settings on the phone toggle “media audio” (that failed to connect automatically) one or two times and then it connects and you can enjoy BT normally. A pain in the ass especially for 10 minute trips.

Right. And which Mitsubishi model and year do you have?

I still use that Bluetooth everyday in my Mitsubishi Outlander I don’t need more than this… I also installed some magnet mount for the phone case.

The only problem is that since December 2024 android release on Pixels it stopped connecting “media audio” automatically due to some timing issue or something. So I have to manually toggle that button on my phone since that day… (Google Pixel) And now Samsung seems to have the same issue since they started updating to newer android versions.

Google is not focusing on fixing this and just focusing on Android auto instead. But it only impacts some Japanese makes. I think some Mazda also have the issue.
