Hi, Recently purchased a DS4, all is well except I have set up 2 profiles on the system for both drivers but it seems I have to manually select which driver I want when I start the car. I just assumed that whenever I got in, the car would select the profile associated with the connected phone.
Am I doing something wrong or is this not a feature, If not it should be, My last vehicle auto selected the drivers profile for the connected phone.
I might be wrong but I think you might need to set one profile up using one key and the second profile with you spare key ?
Thats how it worked on my previous Volvo ?

Mine is the same, according to the manual it should select profile based on what phone is connected.
We did try for a few weeks, also with different keys without any luck.
Now we only use one profile as I use it 95% of the time and my wife isn’t really interested in personalizing the GUI.
If I’m totally honest I’m not impressed at all with the DS profile set up or the Welcome Lights/keyless entry.
I’ve set the profile just for me as my wife dont drive the car, and even if she did she wouldn’t really be bothered about a personal profile setting.
The Welcome lights and keyless entry though is diabolical, It really is hit & miss whether it functions or not.
I can walk to the car at night and nothing happens unless I use the remote, same thing might happen during the day, however the next time I approach the car, the lights might come on and the doors might unlock ?
Theres no pattern when or not it will all work.
The car has been to the dealership twice but its still the same, they’ve now asked that I send them a few videos taken over a couple of days so that they can raise a case with DS UK.
I’ve set two profiles, one for me and another one for my wife that rarely drives the car. Sometimes it recognises the selected phone instantly but most of the times it fails and we are selecting it manually upon starting the car.
I’ve had lots of issues with profiles, the key less entry, welcome lights, radio settings going back to factory settings by itself, internal coloured lighting changing colour by itself.
The car has been in and out of the dealership 3 or 4 times, they’ve now decided to put a new control module in.
Its on order, but hopefully it will fix things for good, but I’m not very confident.
If you car s under warranty, theres no point in second guessing yourself what is causing the issues, I did that for weeks, trying all sorts of different things, but in the end I just gave the car back to the dealership and told them to get it sorted.
Issues like this could be anything from software to hardware or updates, phone connections, wifi, bluetooth ect ect .
