I would like the option to delay the Rex starting at low SOC. Many times, I've been within a couple of miles of home with over 5 miles showing on the GOM but the Rex kicks in as the SOC has reached 6.5%. I would like the option to manually override this and switch it back off, even if they put...

If you just touch the brakes then it applies more regen before the mechanical braking begins, useful when going downhill

I have found that the Pod Point free chargers in supermarkets will activate with any RFID card, maybe the Polar/chargemaster will too - worth a try

Been listening to the new D2 tests and I can say the reception is much better than with the D1 mux in and around Lincoln. I don't know if it's higher power or just less co-channel interference as it's using fewer transmitters.

In the UK, the Kappa Max has reduced in the November update suggesting less of the battery capacity is available. The GOM range is not as good as before the update but better than with the January 2015 software.

I have SolarPV but nowhere near enough to charge the car. In the Summer, I plan to start off-peak charging at around 5am to get as much solar as I can topped off with off-peak mains power

May be worth asking your dealer if they will install the November software update which has new charging routines to see if that helps. Tell them that your off-peak charging fails, the software is designed to fix that.

I have just had the update done in the UK. There was a problem doing it as I received a call saying the dealer had to contact Tech Support and couldn't complete on the 1st day. I do use off-peak charging, it used to fail approx. 60% of the time. It completed successfully last night, I even...

I believe (in the UK at least), they are automatic when needed but only when in comfort mode.

I found the alignment to be off as well, so tweaking that also made a difference. Doesn't help with the main beams being so low on the car, my guess is that they were originally intended to be Fog lights. I have lowered the beams with the drivers side now as low as it can go so I'm lighting the...

How much warning did you get then? 24 Hours? 20+ miles?

I would if I had an advanced warning, twice now it's decided to start the maintenance just as I was pulling into my drive with no advance warning. No, didn't close the door either.

It always seems to activate just as I return home. It would be much better if you could defer the cycle until the next time the vehicle is used so it's not chugging away in a garage.

I believe there have been a couple and I'm hoping to get one when my car goes in for the sunroof QE on the 22nd. I was told the upgrade to fix the off-peak charging issue was supposed to be available last Month but the service reception claimed there was no update available whatsoever and I know...

Can't speak for that case but can say that Soper of Lincoln did an update on my car prior to delivery in January 2015
