Bike rack advice

I was hoping to avoid expense of a tow bar but see bike rack manufacturers warn the Scenic's shape/construction make them incompatible 🙁

I believe my Halford rack is made by Thule. Of 2 positions, I was hoping the lower one photographed would work -- but the above article raises prospect of damaging the plastic grey bumper area. I only need one bike, so 14kg, but not sure whether to take the risk.

Anyone know more or found a solution that's cheaper than a tow bar please? I dont like roof racks. Thanks!

Screen wash fluid low warning

We had our new Scenic in October 2025, the Esprint Alpine model. The dealer had told me that this car doesn’t have a warning light for screen wash fluid. Is that correct? I would have thought a 42k car would have something I’ve seen in cars for the last 40 years? Or an I seriously out of date!!!

Gemini question

Hello, I’m looking to buy a Scenic EV (it would be my third Scenic!). I read that there’s a new software update that includes Gemini. My question is: do you need to use it or is it possible to turn it off? I hate to use AI and I want to use it as less as possible, preferably not at all.
