DBCAM procedure. No I haven,t done that. I take it, its fairly simple procedure and is in the manual? Is this a compensation for battery life reducing over a long length of time? Will have a look and report back thanks topcat

On my 2015 Outlander PHEV when the car has been driven until the stored charge of the battery has been used and the car moves to its engine mode I am starting to receive an intermittent alarm on the dashboard monitor for "EV SYSTEM MAINTENANCE REQUIRED". This seems to be the lesser alarm which...

Yes have looked at all the online sites and there is of course plenty of choice. But was hoping for some specific recommedation for Outlanders. Someones elses good experience for practicality,storage, fitting etc.

Yes I see what you mean. The subject on the Active topic does wander off base. So I am therefore taking it that the cars computer does not think about this for you which you would think would make sense for it to do. Will take the charging cable out and watch how long it takes to reduce to 30%...

Our dog is now 12 years old and starting to get joint and rear leg issues meaning he can no longer jump into the back of our 2015 Outlander PHEV. Would like any hints, tips for a dog ramp purchase

Since the lockdown for Coronavirus my car is sitting for long periods without use in the drive and I have just left the charging cable in. But from the example of a mobile phone were this can reduce battery life is the same scenario also applicable to a Hybrid vehicle such as my PHEV. Or does...

Did the subject veer off road there :D I take it for this particular problem there is not a solution other than to take to the Mitsubshi dealership?

2016 PHEV Car went into Arnold Clark for first MOT. We told them that back passenger tyre had a slow puncture and that steering was a bit wobbly. They repaired the tyre with the puncture and after seeing their inspection video for tyre depth and wear we also replaced front passenger tyre with...

My wife was driving and had a puncture. She retrieved the sealant kit only to find it had an expiry date of 02/19. I would have probably just put this in the tyre but she called the RAC instead and they used their sealant. Could anyone help with a UK online location to buy a new replacement...

Richr and AndyinOz You guys had it all the time. You really have to crane your neck down to see the pushbutton in the centre of the dash you were refering to. It was you saying it was next to the power socket that helped. My wife puts all her shit in that tray and something has obviously bumped...

Thanks for both of those replies Unfortunately I tried double clicking the key fob and that does not raise the door automatically (which is electric). I located a pushbutton on the dash just under the sterering wheen to the right of driver and pushed this also. I was wrong in my description of...

I have a PHEV 4H Outlander and when I try to open the rear hatchback door using the key pushbutton there are two alarm beeps and the door does not lift. I can use the catch pushbutton near the rear window to open but if I try to close again with pushbutton on the bottom of the door, again I...

I have tried to pair my mobile phone to my Outlander and the security system is asking for a 4 digit passcode. I have gone backed to the dealer who sold me the car to see if they can retrieve from previous owner. But if there is a simple way to reset the passcode would be intrested to know...

Thumbs up for those replies. Sets my mind at rest. Thanks

Took delivery of my Outlander PHEV on 9th Jan and have noted my monthly Jan electricity usage has risen from 750Kwh to nearly 1000Kwh (UK). I am using the 13A charger as still await installation of home charging point. Can someone comment if this usage increase of 250Kwh would be expected and is...

Many thanks for those top answers guys Could you tell me about that pre-heating and an app. Never heard of that before

Thanks Craigy

I am currently going thru the process to have a house charging point installed. This will be a 32A(7.2Kw) untehered Rolec fast charging unit. I wish to also purchase a cable but only want 5m length. Those on sale say the 5M is 16A(3.6Kw). If the charging unit is pushing out 7.2KW is this...

Thanks to all those that have replied. Maybe my question heading shouldn,t have included the words best efficiency :D as it sounds like I am only intrested in maximum economy. I just want to drive an enjoy my car but learn to. But I do like to learn fast So would still like someone to take a...

Dear All Just taken ownwership of my new 2015 PHEV and although the manual tells you about the various buttons (ECOmode, charging, save and regen B1-B6) and what they do it doesn,t seem to tell you specifically what type of driving situations these are suited too, to get the best efficiency...
