Does this work? i set it up yesterday to charge an hour before i went to work - i charge the car there so i thought a warm battery would take more charge
from the last time i drove the car to when i was going to work it only dropped 1% when normally it would take a few more percentage off the...
i used the Uk side charger in 2022 and it charged fine.
on the way back i was planning to use the french charger but we got late so we jumped on the train. i did however need charging - so i tweeted out to eurotunnel if i could use the uk side charger and they said i could - just speak to...
what damage was done to the sensor?
Mine's playing up - no frontal warning the sensor is clear with nothing obstructing it but isnt detecting. gonna have a mate raise it up on his garage lift to see underneath it but i have a feeling i'll have to take it into chorley mg for a proper diagnosis
looking at the damage this morning its not as bad as i feared.
the tow hook socket should be able to be smart repaired. the sensor has slotted back in to its socket though i'm not sure how well its fitted in and if its aligned properly.
Frikking deer ran out infront of my car and cracked the front bumper.
had a quick look the sensor bracket has been dented, the sensor is working fine. the area around the tow socket is cracked as is the bottom edge.
its all still working fine - the charging cap opens and closes fine -...
So went from Lancashire to London on a day trip. full charge from home.
got to Cambridge services on a14 charged the car to 80 odd percent using the ionity. and drove off.
a nice steady pace between 60/70 mph within a few miles maybe 10-15 miles the charge dropped down to the mid 60's. the...
I took mine to france and just lowered the dial if there were no cars around i'd put it back up to normal esp as i did quite a bit of countryside driving at night where i went.
Ahhhhhh this must be it.
as more battery drains the more the regen works to its maximum capacity. never experienced it before so i was just worried something was up with the regen system
So this morning set off for Coventry at around half 10 - 10 mins of street driving before reaching the motorway. once on the motorway the issue became more apparent
The regen at level 3 doesnt perform at level 3 - so let me explain - at 70mph i let go of the accelerator - the regen should read...
I tend to drive mostly at night and one of the things i hate is the brightness of the screen seems to go to max every time - even if the setting is shown as minimum.
you have to put it to the middle and then lower it fully again.
Bluetooth seems random - sometimes it connects straight away...
That was a route i did look into - one of three - the other two were the eurotunnel and the ferry from dover. When i broke it all down i wanted to do more driving and eurotunnel with the free charging facility won it for me.
Portsmouth to Caen was another but the cost was too high for that one...
So since a few people have done this so shall I. I'd already ordered the chargemap card, the crit'air sticker and the only thing i'd order now is the toll tag. Previous driving experience in Europe was about 15 years ago when I'd driven a Vito from UK to Milan via Zurich.
Planned a roadtrip...
