    A missing mile.

    A missing mile.

    You are right it does tend to even out , but I have been down the same hill before and only gained a couple of miles but since the BMS update the regen seems to be better not in the terms of feel but the battery pack excepting more charge I have seen the regen peak at 94 amps a few times which I...

    A missing mile.

    Yes I have more testing to do ? looks promising ? I must admit that since my BMS update a few weeks ago to the latest one the car does seem to regen better than before , I don't know if anyone else has noticed a change in regen apart from the full charge regen possible at 93% now , went down...

    A missing mile.

    I am using the EV watchdog app at the moment and I like it a lot ? at first I thought some of the information may not be quite right like average MilesperkWh as it's more than the car shows but it does seem to work out correct at 6.4 mpkwh for the trip home from work this afternoon the car shows...

    I used WD-40 DRY PTFE spray from Screwfix it's for glass , plastic , metal etc .It's a brilliant lubricant , only had to use it once 6 month's ago only a 5 minute job. Use a plastic trim tool behind the windscreen trim rubber to hold it away from the screen enough to get the spray extension tube...

    Battery Range Reduced after a Rapid Charge

    I think your last paragraph MG pilot set at 70 MPH which I assume is ACC will reduce your predicted range significantly , I tend to drive on motorways without ACC but still use MG pilot with regen 2 and only drive 70 MPH and above ? on down hill or flat sections of motorway , but as you drive...

    Excite or Exclusive?

    I have to defend the Excite ? , mine is a red one it's down to personal choice but 100% I did not want a sunroof or fake leather seats it maybe down to working as a vehicle technician for 30 years and having repaired quite a few sunroofs , targa tops and cabriolets for water leaks , fitment...

    Is your airconditioning cold enough?

    Sounds to me like its the HVAC fan resistor pack which regulates the fan speed and if faulty you will only get full fan speed , its normally located somewhere in the side of the plastic casing for the interior fan , I guess it could be the connection to the unit they are normally cheap and quick...

    Pretty impressive range - delighted!!

    Remaining range up and down

    A few of us on this forum including me have had a similar experience where I get home with say 70 miles left on the GOM , go back to the car the next day or even half hour later and the GOM will read 50 miles , if I power down and back on again it will sometimes go back to reading 70 miles , but...

    Have you fitted side steps on your ZS EV

    Yes that's the company I contacted ? all of the ZS 2017+ are out of stock until June , but to have sold all their stock there must be quite alot of ZS owners who have had them fitted .? The ones in the accessorie brochure from AussiePete do look good and enhance the vehicle I think ?
