Battery guarantee

No idea what the poverty pack battery SOH is, but your state of health is a lot better than mine with a 96.8% rating ..... what is your secret?

I've only done 7k miles in 2.5 years and always charged on AC.
TBH, I'm a bit wary of using a DC charger in case it blows my cars onboard AC charger up.

DC charging bypasses the AC charger part of the CCU.

I thought I read somewhere that some owners of the early ones like mine had problems charging on AC after having charged on a DC ?

The had a faulty CCU that stopped AC charging and they could only use DC, if we are thinking about the same thing

Interesting. That actually happened to me but I assumed it was a coincidence (I don't recall reading it before).

My SE SR had always charged perfectly on AC for almost 2 years. I'd had no cause to use DC charging up to that point but I was going on a long journey so did a quick test DC charge (to make sure it worked). After that AC charging started playing up. It would keep stopping and restarting for no apparent reason. Sometimes it would stop and not restart which was quite annoying. Very intermittent though so I haven't engaged a dealer on it. In fact the last 2 times I've charged on AC it's worked flawlessly. Go figure

Harsh indeed.
The insult really isn't warranted after only two days.

Yeah sorry about that. On reflection it looks a bit harsh. I didnt look to see his history, but note he still hasnt contributed to his own post. This is a pet hate of mine about forums, im afraid. If your going to post you should then contribute to the thread
