Thanks for the replies. I don't usually bother with the key slot (certainly not anymore !!). But I agree I must have left it in a way that the aux battery drained. I jumped it again this morning and it has come to the Ready state and I have driven the car with no problems except that the...

I went to shut my windows which were all open and found the car dead, only a blue light on the start button. The local Mitsu garage told me where to find the +12v point and by using jump leads I was able to bring up the display. I believe the message was EV SYSTEM SERVICE REQUIRED STOP SAFELY...

I have had the error message telling me that I hadn't used sufficient petrol in the previous 3 months and telling me to add 15 litres or 4 gallons. As a precaution I added 4 gallons but wondered if I could get away with 15 litres? Actually when it happened the tank was too full to put that...

By chance today I discovered it only works if the car is unlocked.

Aren't you going uphill on the way home?

Please can anyone suggest a reason why I am unable to make any changes remotely? I wanted to delay the auto light start but other things won't change either. I have tried from an android and an iPhone.

Try pre heating for 5 mins. Set the timer to start at 0725 and open a door at 0730 and it will stop.

I owned a RAV4 hybrid before the PHEV. There were 2 reasons to change. 1) The load space in the RAV is not flat, I thought I could live with it but I couldn't. 2) My driving profile suits the PHEV. I make mostly short journeys and I was finding that the RAV never really made best use of the...

When I press the Temp buttons nothing happens unless I have pressed the star (A/C) button, only then can I adjust the temp values.

I have a G3H+ which apparently has an electric heater. I can't see a way of switching it on without the A/C? I have searched previous posts but it is so basic that I can't find the answer.

Yesterday I plugged in the car to charge but the green led just kept flashing. I used my tablet to check if I had a timer set but it would not connect - said out of range. I then sat in the car with it connected and I found a timer set for Sunday overnight but nothing on Tuesday. I reset that...

Anko, thanks for the clarification and extra information, I will bear it in mind.

Does your 72mpg take into account the initial cost to charge?

I am also a fairly new owner but maybe use the Save button when not in town, still gives you 40 Km urban per day.

I drove 27 miles today with some regen and arrived home with guessometer reading 4 miles and small amount of blue on battery gauge (3h+ so no MMCS)
