Very strange. My car wont go into drive or reverse UNTIL you put your foot on the brake. If you press the start without pressing the brake nothing happens except for a message saying to engage drive you have to press the brake.
Once you have downloaded the zip file you need to extract it and then copy the 'maps folder' to the empty thumb drive. If you delete anything from that folder it wont work.
From what I can see of the charging networks in Europe, it only seems to be a problem in the UK.
1 Expensive
2 Not a great deal of charging stations.
3 Prices vary according to KW power of the station.
Only reason to turn battery heating on is to improve charging speed at DC charging stations when the outside temperature is low. Needs to be turned on 30 mins before you get to charger. If you are AC charging it wont make any difference.
My aircon stopped cooling in June car only 2.5 years old. Was making weird noises and not cooling. Took it in tested and was low on gas. Refilled and all couplings checked for leaks. Now works fine, free of charge.
Just found this on Youtube.

I thought I had a long journey, 1800 kilometres in France, with plenty of chargers. I wont ever complain again about the lack of them.
Only problem I have had is leaving the car powered on when trying to initiate a charge. It gives me HV disconnect. Car has to be in standby mode to start charge, after that you can power on the HV battery to see charging speed with no problems.
Used the app for the first time today. Price shown on the App 48c/Kwh inc VAT 150Kw charger at a supermarket 'Edeka'. Worked well scanned the barcode took me to website enter Visa card details plug in CCS and charge.
Don't you just hate it when someone uses that. Maybe no one knows, after all most people have a seven year warranty and have never had to pull their car apart yet.
The first thing is that I am unable to home charge (No parking in front of my house.)
OK I have three cards/apps I use mostly when charging.
EWE card and app. Cost 52 cents at their chargers 62 at their partners' chargers.
ENBW card and app. Cost 59 cents at their chargers and anything up to 89...
The latest charging app for Germany allows you to find and navigate to charging stations that allow payment by credit or debit card at low prices. In my area up to around 75km the most expensive is 49 cents, the cheapest 35 cents/kwh. The app only shows CCS chargers 50Kw and above and is...
They started with the silly registration plates many years ago to help the struggling British car industry. It all started with an 'A' at the end of the number I had a 'D' which was first registered in 1966. Then as new car sales started to go down the car manufacturers (Mainly BMC) persuaded...
I never found out, BUT the car was only in for 1.5 hrs so I would think that there was probably a leak in a coupling somewhere unless they just happened to have a replacement for a pipe with a hole in.
I watched the mechanic take the cap off the low pressure filler point and press the valve with...
Maps don't need updating just need to re-enter all my saved coordinates (Favourites), what a pain in the rump. Good job I still have the paper copy of them saved from my old car 2 years ago. Shame though I have lost all the more recent ones since then. Will have to do a lot of driving around...
All Fixed. Didn't find out what the problem was with the Navigation software but I think they have reset it to Factory Settings as all my favourites have disappeared. I will have to look and see if the maps need updating again. The existing software is still there as I can see the Towbar...
