My understand is that ALL cars will get the update.
However, they are concentrating on the cars that are most affected FIRST.
Which makes perfect sense.
The longer the owners of these affected cars continue to use / charge them, the pack becomes more and more unbalanced.
Each and every charge just makes the problem worse and worse,
Owners are charging their cars in an attempt to try and increase there range, but in affect are decreasing the range due to the HV battery not being able to perform a balance process.
This has all been caused by the âBuggyâ software.
In Norway, the dealers are taking the cars in for anything from one to two weeks.
They are applying the update, then balancing the battery into a state that can then be handed back to the customer.
Oh ...... Rapid charging on affected cars, is making the problem a whole lot worse !.
Basically, the longer the âBuggyâ software has been applied to your car, and the more charging cycles you have conducted, the more out of balance your pack has become.
MG are prioritising the cars that they know has received the âBuggyâ update and dealing with them FIRST !.
It has become a race against time for these badly affected cars.
It is my firm belief that they will deal with currently unaffected cars at a later date.
It is truly in MGâs interest to get this problem nailed down ASAP in order to mitigate any long term implications for warranty claims that could arise for HV batteries damage claims in the future.
This is why I do believe that all cars will receive the update at some point in there lives.
I base this conclusion on pure common sense and what I learnt from
@MilesperkWh when listening to the Monday night pod casts.
Maybe
@MilesperkWh would like to confirm or correct my understanding on this mater please ?.
Otherwise this subject is going to be continually raised time and again.
Thank you in advance of your advise Miles.
. Some dealers give no confidence that theyâve even heard of it let alone that theyâll update it!
