Sicharge D Siemens

[Jaime Branco]

Any one have problems using the Sicharge D Siemens 400kw with a MGS5 because everytime the charger says start changing the car says charge ended.

Never even seen one. I expect if you can charge on another brand of charger then it's down to miscommunication with the Seimens, i.e. the Seimens fault.

Yes, I can charge my car at Tesla and Ionity locations. But never at this type of Simens charger the problem is that almost all charges in A2(Portugal) is this type of charger.

How annoying.

You probably need to contact Sicharge, but maybe MG as well.

I expect it will become more difficult as there are more and more EV models and more and more chargers to sort out the compatibility and communication issues.

The use of standard protocols should have helped with this but it seems that there are sometimes complications.

You mean you have tried more than one of these Seimens chargers and they don't work? If so contact the company that runs the network and give them details, they will upgrade their firmware (maybe) to include your car.

Just to let other users know, I have tried 2 different Siemens Sicharge chargers (160kW and 400kw) and it charged as expected.

From my side I didn't experience any issues.
