The problem is, the modern cycle testing methods. A heap of rapid charge and discharge, maybe 500 cycles or 1,000 cycles, measure the degradation and extrapolate a cycle life down to .... what ever capacity the manufacturer wants really, they are paying for the testing after all, so down to...

The problem in our case is, that is a 12 km hill and it must be climbed, 7.5kms in the first bit, the rest in the next bit, after that, they sort of balance out .... naturally, regen doesn't return the energy lost climbing the hill, but it helps ..... letting the car speed up above the 110km/h...

With out Canadian heavy crude, the US refineries need Venezuela's heavy crude to keep producing all the petroleum based products the US needs .... Even if the invested big $$ in either fixing the Venezuelan infrastructure or building new refineries to process US sweet crude, which can't produce...

Driving slower certainly reduces consumption, but you also have to avoid being a rolling road block. The rate you accelerate from stationary up to speed and the rate you accelerate to change speed will save battery draw down. On the long climb out of Adelaide, we use the cruise control to flip...

With the clamp part of the multimeter around one of the positive cable (not sure how many are on an MGS5) leading from the battery, can you see a DC current being drawn? Try it with each cable ..... the problem will be if the draw is intermittent, catching it when it is actually drawing current...

Is that some sort of universal to Australian 3 pin adapter? It only looks to be 10 amp with the small earth pin ..... T1 Terry

When we first bought our MG4, we weren't EV trained, just loved that performance the moment you stepped on the go pedal. Then we learnt about changing to eco mode, watching the power meter on the right hand lower side of the drivers screen and realised that stab on the go pedal used a lot more...

I didn't have the fob with me, but simply sitting on the seat with the door closed allowed me to release the brake and put it in neutral, as soon as I opened the door and got off the seat, it went back into park and applied the park brake .... so I couldn't push it, but I could make it moveable...

When I went to high school, I went from a primary school with 400 kids between 3rd class and 6th class, AB&C graded in each class and between 28 and 30 kids to a class/ High school, 1200 kids between 1st yr (grade 7 now) and 4th yr (Grade 10 now), 38 to 40 boys in each class and 10 levels, the...

Oh good, so they can just steal anything from inside the vehicle, just not the vehicle itself :LOL: o_O I'm guessing they can move it out of park and release the park brake, so it can be towed onto a tilt tray or a trailer ....... T1 Terry

The $$ amounts have gone through the roof and the points system has become savage since my early hoon days ... but that is a tad more than 20 yrs ago .... you just had to be able to out run a Mini Cooper S and later a Torana GTR XU1, the Mitsubishi Cordia was stock, so not a real challenge. The...

Clearly, the talking head isn't the real deal, the AI has trouble translation numbers that have dots in the mix, this one interprets then as "point" but it is a separate word and ends that sentence, then the next part is the start of a new sentence o_O The information splashed up on the...

When I was researching LFP chemistry back in 2010/2011, there was a massive amount of information on the net, I developed a rather crude spreadsheet that linked authors with claimed technical understanding .... and a pattern developed ... the cut and reword claim to research and with a further...

Here is a You Tube video, clearly Chinese AI generated, but the facts are hard to deny .... Is it just like interpretation of an ancient philosopher's writings, or an actual condensing of repeated trends, each one lasting shorter than the last. I'm guessing many would remember when the pound...

It would be an interesting test to put a battery maintenance charger on the failing 12V battery over night, still connected to the vehicle electrical system, and see if the charger is enough to keep the battery charged ..... T1 Terry

Congratulations on celebration another anniversary of your Birthday, the more you have, it seems the longer you live ..... having more than one birthday can become confusing, you are never sure which you is celebrating the event ...... T1 Terry

Hmmm.... that could be a double edged sword, either person accidently uses the app to unlock the car they are driving, it doesn't work, so they use the fob .... only later discovering it was the other car they unlocked ...... I think the MG sales bloke might have put the app on Margaret's phone...

On the back of the pad, not the disc face :oops: ..... although, the brakes would remain quiet and not wear, nor the discs rust for that matter :eek: Warning The rest of this post is for comic value, if you do accidentally get any grease of the disc face, clean it off with metho on a rag until...
