MickeySw replied to the thread Is this SoH OK?.No, the two processes I refer to are a) balancing/equalisation (same thing) I.e. discharging cells b) BMS calibration/battery... -
MickeySw replied to the thread Is this SoH OK?.I’m sorry, but you can’t call a BMS calibration a ‘full & proper equalisation/balance charge’, these are two different processes, with...
-
MickeySw replied to the thread Is this SoH OK?.Agreed, but what you described isn’t balancing: Balancing is making sure that all cells are at the same voltage. This is usually done...

MickeySw replied to the thread Is this SoH OK?.SoH is a measure of battery degradation, balancing will not improve this value. 85% seems exceptionally low for the age/usage of the...

Yep, mines been like that since the day I bought it (13 mths). I wouldn’t hold your breath for it to be resolved anytime soon, if ever…

Like.
I have been following this thread with interest as my MG5 Trophy LR (Dec 24 registration) was showing signs of alloy wheel corrosion at... -
To get the highest charging speeds, you need to be starting the charging session at less than 20 percent SOC in warmer temperatures...

MickeySw replied to the thread MG5 Instavolt charging problems..It’s a common misconception that driving at motorway speeds will heat the MG5 battery sufficiently to allow decent Rapid charge rates...
-
MickeySw replied to the thread MG5 Instavolt charging problems..It’s more likely it wasn’t working at all as it’s difficult to get the timing right (some say impossible, if you don’t have an OBD...

MickeySw replied to the thread MG5 Instavolt charging problems..Have you ever managed to successfully use this feature, I.e. get ‘summer-ish’ charge rates?
-
MickeySw replied to the thread MG5 Instavolt charging problems..Can you elaborate on how to achieve that in freezing temperatures?

MickeySw replied to the thread "vehicle not responding" in app.I gather it doesn’t work with the car in READY either, then it’s not related to a low aux battery voltage unless your CCU has gone faulty?
