Just a few thoughts on the CIC system so far:

- Not as responsive as NBT, sometimes takes quite a while for NAV to pop up. Definitely need to image the HDD and swap to the SSD

- The Diamond and Star buttons on the steering wheel are not longer configurable, on the LCI cars this is replaced by an audio source button and climate control recirculation toggle button. Complete waste of buttons! Ridiculous you can't program them like you could before.

Old buttons:


New :


- Since upgrading to CIC, you do not have the ability to select SOFT - MEDIUM - INTENSIVE climate control modes by tapping the AUTO button on the climate control. It only has a single climate control mode. I found this feature handy to increase or decrease the airflow. I think this is handled in the LCI climate control input but would need to play with an LCI car to find out, anyone know?
