The visual warning for roadworks seems to work well. However in say rush hour type situations it would be nice if there was an audible chime prompt as you can't always be checking the screen and it is possible to miss something when your eyes need to be concentrating on the road. I never found anything in the menus regarding this.

The whole system is pretty rubbish to be honest.....Try Android Auto or Apple Car play for anything resembling good.

I think mines activated once, a symbol flashed up whilst driving on holiday, but I’ve never seen it since, just one of the many things that don’t work ( or need updating) on my car..

Works well for me. A chime would be good though, I agree. It misses the odd one but seems to pick up most roadworks.

Maybe chimes can be added in the menu? Mine are switched off I’m pretty sure.

I wasn't able to find any chimes pertaining to roadworks in the menus.

Just checked - no there does not appear to be a chime option.
