With mine its usually the battery telling porkie pies. Did have one incident when the regen brakes decided not to turn on😅

Didn't get round to trying the battery, seems to have resolved itself. I think when I turned it off before I didn't leave it off long enough to reset it. Didn't realise the hand brake light was also missing.

Was driving back from the shops last night and after 2-3 minutes the speedometer and motor power gauges disappeared. Can still see the middle bit with Amp voltage, can still switch to tyre pressure but can't see how fast I'm going. Got home, tried turning it off and on again. No dice...

Doubt the water had anything to do with it. 3 inches wouldn't even wet the bumper.

Sorry but I have to ask, what do you mean park at 90° to the parking bay? Why not just, you know park in the bay. I might need a drawing.

If using a home charger pre heat the battery, heat up the cabin to squeeze out some more miles. Also when it's quite cold I find the battery readout isn't accurate, sometimes it sticks sometimes it reads low.

Mine is booked for 2 year 30k service £190.

Something I've noticed on long descents is the Kers drops off after a while. I think the power goes to a capacitor first and when that's full the Kers drops to -40 amp as it can't charge the battery fast enough. Or I could be talking crap.

Still not an option for standard range. Pain in the assessment.

The sensor doesn't need to be touched when changing tyres.

Same problem. Nextbase can't feel with Scottish summer. I have to remove the camera when I park.

Speaking of apps, seems to have updated. Now I can't use charge management because it doesn't recognise my car as being electric.

Had this a few times. Had it drop 40% when it should only be 15-20%. Then it went back up to 73% and stayed there for 20 miles. Eventually it sorted itself out but it is a pain as you can't guarantee you've got the miles.

It's infrared not motion.

I mean I don't have Bluetooth on my phone normally, so I don't think the phone is causing it. I'll play about with it later and see if it works though.
