Don't mix the colours so stick to blue. If its just a small top up use water or the universal stuff. If you put your reg number in Eurocarparts site it will tell you.

Thanks oscarmax, does it cope ok on the hills when the battery is low. also what sort of range are you getting from the larger battery on the 2.4? My last one was a 2.0 and are looking at the 2.4's now.

I already know what the manufacturers limits are but it can tow more, hence the reason for asking for real worl experiences of owners before I take the plunge.

Looking at getting back into PHEV ownership again, however I now need the ability for it to tow my caravan @1580MTPLM. So i'm after peoples real world experiences of towing heavy trailers with the PHEV. (UK) Thanks..

That little round button only disables the electric boot opening. To switch off keyless entry you have to do it via the MMCS

Round and red on both my BMW and Renault Laguna. (the Laguna had 2)

its not a legal requirement its simply there to cast some light onto the central console during darkness. Lots of cars have them and lots don't!

From my experience, the save mode does increase the range by a couple of miles and then reuses them to maintain the level of charge. I find that using save on a long run is a little bit more efficient than using charge (although through roadworks at 45-55 mph there does not seem to be much...

Ahh for the brake servo - I get it now.. That pic on the previous page also explains why it takes the washer fluid forwever to defrost!!

Anyway... the question you asked.. I do regular long round trips (200 - 300 miles) Let the car do its own thing on the slow roads approaching the motorway, once on the motorway hit the save button as i find driving at speeds above 40mph drains the battery rapidly. then once off the motorway or...

cycle through the day, night & auto options by pressing the button on the lower left on the MMCS, it worked for me when i had the same problem.

Brake pump? Whats one of those? Mine doesn't have one!

Engine braking is not provided by the paddles at low speeds only at higher speeds (he does mention this in the clip).

i would have thought that the car would need to be in "park" for this to work, Ill try it out later..

Get the dealer to let you have one for a day or two.. I have been doing a 160 mile round trip commute recently and can average between 38 - 49 mpg depending on traffic conditions, motorway speeds etc.. The mpg on these cars is very sensitive to the way it is used.

Have to agree, the leather in the PHEV seems very good quality and is lovely and soft, much nicer than the leather in my previous 3 Series BMW.

I would be more worried about someone hacking into the Wifi and altering the settings for the headlights! :lol:

A trailer with gross mass of up to 750 kgs can be unbraked, trailers over this weight and upto 3500kgs will be a braked trailer so will come with its own brakes which are activated by the tow hitch. HTH

Thanks for that.. I have only had my car a couple of days and have been browsing various apps/ sites etc. to try to find free of charge charging points and seem to be struggling a little! Does anyone have a "fast track" answer to this who has already done the research? All i seem to find are...

Can we use the tesla chargers at service stations and are they free to use?
