3 dumb questions

On 2020 G63

I'd like to start the car, and have the lane assist button automatically off each time. Is that possible?

How do i turn off the annoying speed limit warning ?

If i'm listening to spotfiy - how do i fast forward to the next song using buttons on the steering wheel?

Thx

Concerning the first question, manual says that it's possible to turn it off permanently BUT it's not: go to --> Car --> Assistance --> Lane Assist (or how it's named outside of Italy :-) and then you should be able to choose between
- Active
- Normal
- Off (which actually is not there)
the first one should be the less invasive BUT, for now, the only solution I found is to turn it off @ each new start by keeping depressed the button down left of the steering wheel.

...of course, if somebody found the way to do it permanently (as the manual says), please post it.

exactly what I do when I start the car. Press and hold - other methods don’t work. It makes it more unsafe by harsh intrusion vs making it safe..soo bad. How it was even approved escapes me

It is included in the Connect service, which they give you free for a while - my wife has it.

Changing songs track advance rewind

It took me awhile to figure out the song advance using the steering wheel controls...on the right side of the steering wheels you use the “touch haptic” button—-the button that uses your touch....looks like black plastic square—-while the center display is showing your music —-this control responds to your finger motions up/down as a plus or minus...sliding your finger tip up rewinds or -...and sliding finger tip down advances the track to next song/track.etcc...seems like my 911 PDK shifter ...opposite of what I thought was intuitive and eventually Porsche agreed and made pdk stick movements more intuitive ...then they removed the whole pdk shifter ...ala 992....why do I love German vehicles..they mess with your brain...lol

Cheers
