With this hot weather I've sat a couple of times for a long lunch in the air conditioned comfort of the Phev while I eat my Tesco meal deal. Has anyone else experienced an issue with the Auxiliary battery being drained resulting in a dashboard warning about requiring a service and generally...

I've had a home charger fitted for about 2 years, and that's what i use 99% of the time. Just checked the meter attached to it and i've used 3550 units, so that's about £355 pounds worth of electricity. I make that about £15 a month over the 24 months. Am I right in saying though that with...

Is there any way to access the lifetime distance or time travelled on Electric or Petrol? It would be interesting to know over time what the ratio is. Hypothetically if you were looking at buying a used (high mileage?) PHEV in the years to come what would your ideal ratio be?

You are invited to participate in a public consultation which will contribute to the development of a community-led tariffing recommendation which will be presented to hosts on the ChargePlace Scotland network. A growing number of charge point owners on the ChargePlace Scotland network are...

Has anyone experience a rough/gruff engine noise at low revs? When the battery is exhausted and running on engine its recently become quite noticeable. Car is due a service, so will mention it to them, but wondered if anyone else had experienced.

I treated myself to a relatively inexpensive spare plug holder for my charging cable. Suits me to have it attached to a fence post right next to the charge point on the car to save me from constantly coiling the heavy cable and looping around...

I've leased the PHEV (64 plate 3h) on a very reasonable basis for the past two years, and are now happy to purchase. The background here is that the lease company did offer to * increase the lease duration by another 12 months, but charge me an additional ~ £70 monthly to do so * sell me the...

I'm interested in fitting a tow bar but reluctant to cut the bumper. There are some great threads on here that hint at self fitting but not much detail. Anyone vouch for a reasonably inexpensive option that won't require me to butcher the bumper?

Two of us in the car I was passenger. I popped into shop for a minute with the keys in my pocket. Came back to the news that it had lit up like a Christmas tree on the dashboard referring to immobilizer etc. Didn't seem to recognise that the key had been re-united. So proceeded with the obvious...

I've noticed a degradation in the action from the switch/toggle when varying the speed limiter in the last month, car only 4 months old. Anyone else seen the same? Not sure if perhaps there is something stuck in the mechanism (air blower might fix) or a mechanical problem.

Saw a Zoe in Glasgow with a parking ticket on its windscreen. It was parked in a charging bay but presumably was waiting for or had previously completed a charge. No sign of a cable in place, Is that common?

I've just got the approval for the charge point installation at home. Until now we have been reversing the car onto the driveway and the 13A chargers passes under the garage door. Is the standard 5m cable that they will be providing long enough so that I can park nose in and still reach the...

A family member liked my phev so much she might get one on lease. My company (Alpha) have bumped their prices up, any personal recommendations for who out there is giving a good price just now? I tried contract hire and leasing dot com who have got two under £250 per month. It would be a...

So ... what does the button next to the tailgate opener do on the 3h? I managed to miss pressing the button that opens the boot, and hit the one to the right of it. Queue lots of warning beeps, and I've no idea why? I had a scan of the owner's manual but couldn't work it out. Anyone know? My...
