    Do you know if a US Imiev can accept single phase 240 like from a European inverter?

    Turtle at Half Charge Under Load?!?!?!

    Battery is charging up to 16 bars. Battery capacities 27.5 amp hours. Probably drive about 26 miles maybe a little further. I don't really pay attention to the RR gauge. Pretty much the turtle light comes on any time vehicle is under load on any grade. Pretty disappointed in Mitsubishi...

    Turtle at Half Charge Under Load?!?!?!

    So they did the quote un quote judgement test and they say the battery is a okay. They had the car 3 weeks and decided that they aren't going to replace the battery. They said that this is normal and techline was no help. I called corporate and they told me to pound sand. They said the only way...

    Turtle at Half Charge Under Load?!?!?!

    Ended up replacing the 12 volt battery at the dealer and the dc-to-dc converter code never came back. After gaining some rapport with the dealer I've scheduled a test and talked to the technician. The dealership is fairly confident a replacement battery is in order. I'm still under warranty, so...

    Turtle at Half Charge Under Load?!?!?!

    The car has about 54,000 miles. It still got the original battery. I'll see what the replacement cost is maybe throwing a battery at the problem wouldn't be a bad idea. I ordered the Bluetooth scan tool recommended on here. We've had the car for about 40,000 miles and it has been a rockstar...

    The code is obd dtc 39 PFC output voltage fail Or obc dtc 39 PFC output votltage fail. Kind of hard to understand him over the phone. I'm going to order a scan tool are you guys mentioned before. My current OBD 2 reader doesn't seem to work on the car. The technician was under the impression...

    Turtle at Half Charge Under Load?!?!?!

    The light will come on with less load and no heat at a lower state of charge. I don't understand how the dc-to-dc converter has anything to do with battery voltage drops under load. I'm going to the dealer today to get the powertrain codes. The car is mostly charged on level one overnight...

    Turtle at Half Charge Under Load?!?!?!

    The turtle light is coming on, on my way home going up hill. I took the car into the dealer and they seem to think its a DC/DC convertor. I was under the impression the light was related to the traction pack. The car has had no problems charging to all 16 bars. We have seen a range drop, but I...

    New I-MiEV's --- Maybe, maybe not

    I can verify the two silver cars in Portland. I was at the dealer Gladstone Mitsubishi last week getting my recall work done.

    Front tire wear

    I replaced the front tires when I got my car last year. My 2012 had about 14k. I've put about 11k on it so far the outer edge takes most of the ware and tear. On a side note noticed a popping noise when I back up with the wheels turned.
