How to permanently turn off the radio in a 2022 LDV G10+

Can you tell me how to permanently turn off the radio when I start a 2022 LDV G10+? I always turn it off, but it comes back on automatically when you start the van and it is annoying when you are in and out of the van all day. Also, the horn beeps when you lock the van. Is there any way to stop it from beeping?

The horn-beep when you lock the car should be able to be turned off via the car settings menu on the main infotainment screen. You need to the find the menu that gets you into those settings and turn off the horn beep function. Many car-owners hate this feature (and so do their neighbours) but disabling it is a fairly simple process that should also be outlined in your owner's manual.

The radio with a mind of its own is another issue altogether and has been around long enough to annoy a couple of generations of LDV owners now. Radios that turn themselves to full volume every time the car is switched on, poor reverse-camera clarity and Bluetooth systems that simply refuse to recognise some phones have all been flagged by owners. But since the car is still under warranty, you should take this up with your LDV dealer. There may be a factory reflash that will return the radio to an obedient state. Perhaps the stereo system is turning itself on automatically as it searches for a connected phone. Some LDV owners have resorted to aftermarket head units to fix these problems, but hopefully LDV has engineered a fix for these later-model vehicles.
