Infotainment (MIB3) software glitches are very common, ranging from screen freezes to wireless CarPlay disconnecting.
Suspension "creaking" or knocking on the front axle is often caused by drying top mount bearings or perished bushes.
Hybrid battery software on e-Hybrid models can occasionally cause "Electric Drive System" errors that require dealer recalibration.
Matrix LED headlight units (if fitted) can suffer from moisture ingress or calibration faults.
