It's strange how some drivers seem to always get a faulty car and others in comparison seem to have very few and it doesn't matter if they are acquired new or used.
I wonder what the common denominator is?🤔
As I've mentioned before if the charger doesn't charge take the weight off the cable so the top two pins of the plug make good contact with the car's charging port. They carry the data needed for the car and charger to do their electronic handshake. Once this has happened you can let go, it only...
My friend started to look at getting his first EV about the same time I did. He even got a Zappi fitted 2 weeks after me by the same electricians. Despite having the money he still drives an ageing Ford Mondeo estate as he's afraid of missing out on getting the next advancement in EV technology.
Mercs also suffer with front suspension problems just as they come out of warranty and they also suffered with a coolant problem. I looked at getting a used EQA 250+ but I'm glad I didn't.
There's a class action being taken against Jaguar at the moment due to the poor design and materials of...
They are not needed because modern LED lights have a flat beam so you don't get the scattered light, as you do from traditional headlights, bouncing back off the fog causing glare. Fog lights were fitted low down so the light undercut the fog and reduced the amount reflected back into the...
Leave the AC/heating on. You've already taken the hit in mileage by demisting the screen up so just leave it ticking over instead of keep switching it off and on again when it has to start from scratch.
If you read my later post #10 it explains that my current insurer (Aviva) did insure the car it's just that they classified it as a hatchback not an SUV so when doing the search manually as opposed to using the reg number it didn't show up.
It'll help speed up charging on a fast charger if it's cold and if you are short of time. Most of the time it's not worth it as it uses the equivalent of about 35 miles of range to pre-heat the battery.
I've switched that off. Trying to get the correct foot swipe and nearly over balancing combined with accidentally closing it when reaching for something towards the back of the boot was more trouble than it was worth.
The range shown by the GOM (Guess 'o' meter) is based on the historic amount of miles per kWh the car has used. This is affected by how you've driven the car, if you've used the heating, and the ambient weather conditions.
Glad that's over
Another disappointing Christmas
Rubbish Christmas meal
Boxing day cancelled
Decorations are down
Cards packed away
Will avoid disappointment
And not bother again.
Too right.
I live on my own and usually go to my brother's for lunch with my two nieces but this year they both went abroad for Christmas and my brother didn't want to cook lunch just for the three of us.
I'm doing well for Christmas meals this year as the previous Friday a group of us went to...
Had a ham and mustard sandwich followed by Comte and Cheddar cheeses with Ritz crackers after an expensive but disappointing lunch.
SPOILER ALERT:
Major moan ahead.
First time ever I went with my brother and his misses to the New Bath Hotel in Matlock for Christmas lunch. The lettuce in the...
