2015 HSE Luxury spec and questions

Currently in the market for a ~2015 HSE Luxury to replace our 2007 HSE. I have a few questions...

Firstly, are there any specific options not standard that are essential?
Is it a straight swap to move the cubby fridge from 57 plate D3 to a D4?
Should it have active headlights and cornering lights standard or as an option? Is it easy to spot the difference just by looking at the units like with a D3?
If it has timed climate, can remote climate be added?
Why do some have an audio hard button, and some what looks like a camera hard button just below the screen?
 Cheers,

Gareth

the HSE Lux comes with timed climate as standard yes you can add remote climate if you wish. I haven't found anything on mine that I think is lacking. it does have cornering lights. they all have the audio button. it makes it easier to swap between displays on the screen. if you have surround cameras it will have the camera button as well.

mine is for sale shortly looking at the D5 just got to find the right deal

One big improvement is the difference between factory fit remote FBH and aftermarket fit, mine has factory fit remote and it is very good, when opening the door after being on 10-15 minutes the heat hits you when the door is opened.
I am pretty sure HSW is standard, but just look for the switch. Adaptive xenons and cornering are standard but the light output is disappointing not as good as D3, you do gain by having probably the best indicators on any vehicle made Thumbs Up
Cubby fridge is standard, although the D3 would fit they do have a habit of discharging the battery if left switched on.

It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

That's interesting.
having put a deposit on a 65plate HSE Lux yesterday I was expecting to have to activate it.

I have an Altox on the way to plug in, but haven't yet put any effort into working out how to set up and use my IID BT which I purchased used on here before I got the D4.

How will I be able to tell if it's got Timed Climate already activated without setting up the IID first?

Thanks

Go into the extras menu on the sat nav screen. If the icon is there you have timed climate Thumbs Up

Not a great photo but you can just make out the HSE has timed climate as standard then the Lux has the same spec with a bit more on top Thumbs Up

When you get the D4, go into "home screen"
Click "extra features" (on bottom left), you'll then get a screen showing the extras.
On my HSE, I've got three icons there - 4x4 info, cameras, timed climate.
Tap whichever one you want to enter.

Was out forest driving today, had a play around with the 4x4 info and camera (don't need the timed climate).
Can now get the sat nav/camera screen to show the rearward view whilst driving.
Saves straining my neck for the rear view mirror. Laughing

It’s a good solid spec I added everything else could on top to mine.

Used wade sensing a couple of times then forgot about it.
Surround cameras are pants I tried to get my money back for that option!
Wouldn’t be without the remote park heat fob.
Home link was pants and doesn’t support rolling codes.
I would double check the cubby fridge I carried mine over from all my d3s and 4s but had to order new for the MY16 I seem to recall the electrics had changed.

I actually made sure the car only had the rear camera before I went to look at it, as I've heard so many bad things about them

It doesn't have a cubby fridge, which surprised me, but I can sort that if I feel like it.

It doesn't have side steps fitted either, which I'm really pleased about as I can't stand them.

The other surprise was the lack of mudflaps, but again that's easily sorted.

I wanted a Blue HSE Lux with Ebony Leather, there were only two on Autotrader, and the other one was way up North and had almost twice the miles on it.

Thanks for all the info everyone. The only thing I’d really like is Adaptive Cruise but not sure that was ever an option on the D4 in the UK?

The one I’m looking at doesn’t have a cubby fridge so will see if I can shift the one from our D3 across.

Tried the reverse camera and the image is shocking. If that is the standard of the surround cameras, don’t think I’m missing anything.

Can standard remote climate be added on top of timed climate, or is it aftermarket only (like Altox or similar)?
 Cheers,

Gareth

2015 is the changeover year for adblue ie euro6 and with an eye on the future I would be making sure the car had it.

I think 15 plate was a mix of euro5 and euro6, when the 65 plate came out they were all eur06?

Yes the AdBlue situation with 15 plate cars is a minefield.

During my search I found most actually had it fitted, according to dealers, but some didn't.

The main issue was the dealers, both franchised and independant, not knowing what they are talking about. I was pleased I only travelled a few miles to look at one car that the dealer insisted had it on the phone, but when I got there it didn't.

How to easily spot ad-blue on a car?
