Received this today

I asked my local Mitsu PHEV garage (from where I bought the car) and they told me that if I wanted a report, I would have to go to Kings Lynn as that was the nearest dealer that had the special equipment. My local dealer was unwilling to pay the £10,000 for the official equipment from...

The only way you can do this is to leave the ignition on and lock the door manually with a key, the "blipper" will not lock the car if you get out with the key in your hand. Unadvisable though - if the engine is running (for example) it is illegal on a public road and it will also probably...

Thanks for the tip on ios11. I can remove wifi priority now. Jeff

Thanks. Have you modified the rear battery access as the + side is hidden behind the floor panel?

Where do you "hook-up" the other 12v source - under the bonnet onto the little red covered connector or in the boot onto the aux battery? When I had to get mine "jump started" (for want of a better expression) trying to put portable battery jump leads onto the connection under the bonnet...

Thanks for the response. I will see how it goes. I do have one of the portable li-ion battery packs but it is in my wife's car and she was out! I will have to buy another one. That being said we left her car for 4 months when we were on a cruise and it started first time when we got back to...

I have a cheap and cheerful pair (front and rear) in my PHEV - abut £30 each from eBay. They work perfectly with no issues. I bought a "posh" one for my MX5 Mk1 - but it completely obliterates Radio 2 as the switched mode power supply in the GPS module and camera is cheap and leaky, causing...

Bit like to old (politically incorrect) joke about the everlasting Guinness . . . (Nationality deleted) Guy in a bar and a Genie appeared. "I will grant you three wishes" He thought about it and said . . "When this glass of Guinness is empty, I want it to refill" "Granted" said the Genie...
