Thank you very much

Can i please know where did you find the repair manual?.

Thank you for the input. Dealership has updated the software to the latest and all the figures has been reset. I have to do a full charge discharge cycle to see what happens.

Yes. That's the plan. At least wait until it goes below 10%. I need to do an equalise charge as well to get it to the optimal capacity. No battery heating enabled. Yes I agree. Its not the best and I wouldn't expect it to be at this price tag. Let's see what happens. From my experience on...

Thank you. I'm not complaining about the estimated range — I understand that estimates can vary. My concern is with the usable capacity of the battery. Based on my own observations and data from others, it appears to be around 51 kWh, including auxiliary loads. That suggests around 10 kWh of...

Yes. Thats what im planning to do. I will update this once its done..

Im sorry for the confusion. If you see the 1st message, you can see i was telling about used power and efficiency figures doesn't match the advertised battery capacity. That's the primary problem. Then if you carefully follow the conversation, you can see few other also reporting similar...

Im sorry but i find it hard to accept 10kwh loss from a 61kwh capacity as average. Thats pretty good milage. Can i please ask what kwh that charger was showing when you did that charge?.

Yes. This makes much more sense. Get the miles driven, gethe kwh figure from charger and use it to do our own estimates. That being said, i still find 90% efficiency is quite poor for a modern power electronic equipment. Specially in automotive applications. I know this because i design those...

Yes but chargers should be somewhat accurate isnt it. Obviously charger cannot be 5kwh off? If its this far off, that particular charger network is overcharging customers which should be llegal. Either that, or MG calculations are wrong. We have to trust the charger figures.

Thank you for the videos.. Here is the problem in simple terms. You charge it by 22.8kwh. Mg says it only used 17kwh total (including auxiliary functions) . Where did the 5kwh go?. 17kwh at 33%, equal to 51kwh at 100%. Where is the 61kwh capacity?. This is not only me apparently. There are...

Yes. I guess i will get the same readings. 5kwh loss from 22kw is huge isnt it?.

Not me. I have asked the technician to have a look at the SoH when my front radar being recalibrated. Not the capacity, no. Just SoH.

Charger will tell how much power that the car is allowed to draw from that particular charger. The car will limit the power it draws from that charger. So for example, in case of the granny charger, it tells the car that it can only do 2kw. So car draws that amount. Any power loss is inside the...

It shouldn't make any significant difference because all those 2kw, 7kw chargers are not actually doing anything other than taking care of communication. Its just 2 contactors with communication electronics. All the power is handled by the car onboard charger. Those type 2 Chargers shouldnt...
