Ok, so It was 2c this morning on the way to work and usually that means that my MpkWh is really low (usually 2.3-2.5) however on arriving at work it was actually 3, so not sure if that is to do with the update but was rather pleased.
Not really, I just asked them to update it as the R28 was taking forever to balance. It drops the upper buffer by a certain percent and drops the lower buffer to make up the shortfall, it also allows regen braking to work with a higher battery charge. I think after a few weeks it'll be properly...
I had to go into the city centre today, not sure if it was just me, but car felt "smoother" to drive, it's hard to put my finger on it, I'll have more time to notice any changes when I'm back to work next week (school half-term at the moment, so I'm daddy daycare, yay :cry:)
Nothing yet mate, need to charge it this weekend, but I didn't pay for anything as I told them that it was taking forever to balance (which was true) and they did it under warranty :) (they even cleaned the car for me, lol)
Still using the same as you mate, Its been fine, just takes ages to balance out after a charge on the home charger is all, I've got it booked in middle of April to have it updated and an unrelated issue of "clicky steering wheel" to be looked at. The garage I'm taking it to know their stuff as...
Yeah, it could have been much worse, haha. I generally tend to find that about 2 out of 3 dealers have no idea what they are talking about. At least that is the case with me.. Literally 2 out of the 3 dealers around me have no idea :D
Yeah, It looks like you've got the "slightly dodgy" BMS version that I and several others have, overall it's fine It just takes a LOOONG time to equalise at the tail end of charging.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's the case, I tried this on mine a while ago, it was balancing at the time, but when I plugged it back it, it didn't resume balancing.
I'm not sure mate, I try and equalise every time I charge if I have the time (as I don't want to make anything worse potentially) I think (I've heard) that the car stops after 10 hours anyway? And I don't think that mine ever finishes.
For example this Saturday I plugged the car in at 10 AM and...
Just picked it up, told them I work for the NHS and I NEED the car for the weekend, they wanted to know if I wanted to leave the car on the weekend and they'll try again Monday, that wasn't going to happen.
It appears they've done nothing in the 2+ days they had it, the steering wheel click...
