Telemetrics Update

[Stuart IBD]

If your Alpine has telemetrics then see if it's been updated with tyre pressures and 6 pages. I was alerted to this update from the French Alpine forum and it's already been applied to my 22my car. Apparently it's being rolled out by the end of August.

Is this a dealership upgrade?

Mine (delivered ~6 weeks ago) came with this anyway. I'm more annoyed that I haven't found a way to change the multi bar graph display. On the early cars you could configure any of the sensors (so you could have water, oil, gearbox, clutch, intake etc) all on the same page. The selections on the later cars seem to be fixed.

No it's an automatic software upgrade that's sent to 22my and newer cars over the air to upgrade to latest version. No connected subscription required either as mine had expired.

Two weeks ago, I was on a tour through several mountain passes. A friend joined me for a part of the trip, and at one point he asked whether tyre pressures were shown in Telemetrics. I told him I wasn't sure and that he could check. If I remember correctly, he said he couldn't find anything - I was focused on driving, didn't pay much attention. Later on, though, I recalled that I was able to see my oil temperature at the end of that trip.

Up to that point, I had only customized one of the Telemetrics pages to display oil temperature alongside coolant temperature.

A few days after the trip, while cleaning the car, I wanted to check something in Telemetrics and noticed that it looks a bit different. While scrolling through the pages, I suddenly saw tyre pressures! For a moment, I thought my friend had somehow enabled it. But then I realized my custom page was missing too. Wait didn't I check the oil temperature earlier? Hmm maybe there was an update? But I don't remember confirming it.

Today, after reading this thread, the mystery is finally solved.

Indeed I was asked about data collection settings at one point. This usually happens before an update.

I got the update too. Having tyre pressures and oil temp next to each other on the same page is nice.

You can customise it to an extent, you have to click the three dots in the bottom left. I'm not sure about customising the individual data bars.

Good to know, mine has expired with no way of renewing it seems.

Will be interesting to see if it will update next drive... off to Wales next week.

Does anyone know if these updates are also possible on the pre-facelift? Appreciate they might not be OTA but at dealer?

It's a completely different system, so I doubt it (or at least the GUI is completely different, but I think the whole head unit hardware is different).

It's one of the few things that really bugs me about my A110 PE: no tire pressure readout to be had. Not so much because I desperately need it, but more because the hardware is there, and to make it worse: in a 2019 Grand Scenic which has the same sensors in the tire valves, you actually can see the live tire pressures on the instrument cluster. How does a car manufacturer decide that the driver of a family wagon is more entitled to seeing their tire pressures than the driver of a dedicated sports car?

I'm sure you're right, but my PE was built 30 Oct 2019 & it has TPMS. They probably changed/added features even during the "series1" cars before the major update. If you have a bluetooth OBD2 dongle to read codes etc, you could see if the CAN has the TPMS data as that would open up options for you. I feel your frustration though.

I have received the telemetrics update on my 2022 A110. It didn't ask me anything at any point about the update, I just noticed that now I have received the update when starting the telemetrics.

One other new data point which is now available (besides tyre pressures) seem to be oil pressure which is now possible to add on the display.

Oh, I have the tire pressures on the CAN bus alright - just no way to show them on the instrument cluster or the central screen. An odd oversight to say the least.
