Re: BP pulse 150kw

Used the BP charger again today. As my battery was quite low at 15% (by the time I got there). Started at 126kw and dropped steadily throughout the charge to about 80+Kw bang on half an hour which I think is pretty impressive. I also discovered a small park off the back of the garage so next time I ...

BP pulse 150kw

I discovered a 150kw BP Pulse charger near me yesterday (it’s huge). I thought I’d give it a try even though I had to pass a 75kw evyve charger to get to it. Anyway, i plugged in etc and it started at around 69kw so I thought it was just getting ready to fly up to the 130 ish max on my car. Nope, it...

Re: “Electric drive not working”

Is anyone else getting “electric drive not working correctly” warning? Appeared this morning but coincides with the app update yesterday. I think it ties in with my pending BCC visit but it’s a bit worrying all the same. I’m waiting for the dealer to get back to me on it. IMG_1138.pngIMG_1137.jpegI...

I’m pretty sure they all work from the same script set by VW.

Not in my experience. Had to ask the dealer.

Re: Self seal puncture.

Yes, I had one earlier this year. I got a warning about tyre pressure on the back nearside wheel being low. Crept home and found a screw in the tyre the next day. Removed it, hiss, self sealed, pumped it back to the required pressure. Nervous for the first few journeys but have forgotten about it s...

Self seal puncture.

Has anyone had a proper puncture with Bridgestone turanza self seal tyres. This morning I heard a tick tick sound as I was driving along so I investigated the cause. Unfortunately I saw the hex head of a screw doing an adequate impression of a snow stud. There was no deflation and the tyre warning w...

Re: Changing Headlights for travel in Europe

Interesting, I’ve just looked at my 1st edition info and it doesn’t show any of that but I do have software v3.2. There doesn’t seem to be any way to switch it over. However, I just assumed the matrix would work it out for itself just as it does on uk roads.

Re: “Electric drive not working”

Kelvin when i first bought the car i had and electric drive fault that came on and then also cleared after a couple of days and the car was fine. When the 3.2 update is applied this looks for issues that vw new about and highlights the battery’s issues. I would still go for the 3.2 update i find it...

Re: “Electric drive not working”

Hi Andy so they have changed a module on the car and i get it back next week. What was interesting was that when i got the new software installed if i logged on the app to view the car after a few hours of being parked the range displayed would be a big drop off, and the when i would get into drive...
