I had this a couple of times on our 2015 PHEV. It was always after driving for a while, and twice it was as I was driving to the garage for something else! They couldn't find any codes stored for the numerous errors. In most cases, the errors disappeared after leaving the car for a while. On the...
You can turn off the heating immediately after turning the car on - you have second or two before the ICE fires up. But by far the better alternative is to preheat the car from the mains. That will also help with the ICE coming on and you don't need to turn off the heating. I only turn off the...
So you've succumbed to the sh*t-stirring as well, despite there being no actual evidence that our cars are actually being stolen :roll:
You don't need to buy a dubious faraday pouch. A simple old tin box will suffice. We've had one for our keys for over 5 years. Even with the box touching the...
How many people on here have reported their PHEV being stolen in this way? I can't remember any in the 5 years I've been on here.
It's like the cat-stealing hype - social media and the press love sh*t-stirring and getting people worried about things that are incredibly unlikely to happen :roll:
It depends how you measure it. It was still only around ½-mile extra range, whichever way you measure it. Everyone knew exactly what I meant, but I guess technically we're both right if you want to split hairs :roll:
You can't: the WiFi has no internet connection, You have to download it beforehand.
You should also turn off the "Auto Join" option in the iPhone settings for that connection for precisely that reason.
Seriously? Our 98k-mile, 2015 car's BMU and battery were untouched for 8 years till January. I took it in to the dealer, who measured it at 64.8%. They then did a full DBCAM overnight and it recovered to nearly 70%. At my current 12-mile range, that's roughly a massive ½-mile improvement for the...
As it shows empty with 30% left in the battery, that means your SOH is just under 70%. If like here they run a DBCAM to recalibrate the BMS to the actual capacity (as opposed to its estimate), you'll probably revert to over 70% so won't be eligible for a warranty claim.
