    How many i-miev's with glove box problems?

    Mine broke last week.....strangely, just after the dealer cleaned my cabin filter as a courtesy. I took it apart & it's now working with one latch. Yup.... IMO. it's WAY cheap and a poor design.

    AVAS question

    That's it! Funny.... I had to go look from that exact direction, but, yes, you have found it. If you un-clip the wires for whatever reason, take your time. You'll find it requires a pin or similar to get in and under just right to allow it to come apart. It's tricky & took me a few tries to...

    AVAS question

    Thanks to Joev I found it! I removed the passenger side front tire. I figured out the "plastic rivets" and removed the plastic liners. One goes over and in front of the wheel. The other is behind the wheel, between the wheel and the trunk area. Only the one between the wheel and trunk needs to...

    AVAS question

    Alrighty! Thanks for the tips.... Maybe this weekend Ill dive in & see if I can get to it. If I modify it I'll put it on a switch.... I don't mind it if I'm in town, but most of the time no one hears it but ME. It's odd...perhaps ours is louder than some? I hear it from inside the car and and...

    AVAS question

    I've searched & read every post about the AVAS ....that noise the electronic I-miev makes below 22 MPH... and I can't find the answer to this one question: Where is it? Someone mentioned it's under the front bumper , passenger side. Nope, that's the horn. I can't tell by listening. Can anyone...

    I'm losing faith in Mitsubishi.

    We got the I-Miev back! Yippeee! And.... it's fixed! Well.... I haven't tried the AC yet as it got returned at sundown last night, but I'm sure they wouldn't pay to return it unless it was right. My faith is restored. I spoke with the regional rep last Friday. I expressed to him I thought...

    I'm losing faith in Mitsubishi.

    I read it on here.....then followed up with an Internet search. As of the 2013 model year the USA I-Miev will only be available in California and Hawaii. I'm in Maine!

    I'm losing faith in Mitsubishi.

    The dealer has been as good as he can be....they offered to pay for a rental, and also the gas that it uses. I don't need the wheels though. Come Monday if they can see it will be some time, they will in fact return it so I can have it while we wait for parts. Silly..... they refuse to pay me...

    I'm losing faith in Mitsubishi.

    We bought our I-Miev a couple of months ago. It was near freezing when we bought it and it never occurred to us to test the air conditioner. 3 weeks ago we had a hot day & turned on the AC. It didn't work. I phoned the dealer, did some over the phone testing and it was determined it needed to...

    Leather steering wheel and shifter knob in ES

    We just bought a 2012 SE. It has leather wrapped steering wheel & shift knob. You can easily see the individual stitches and the fact that it is real thread. There is no question whatsoever that it might be something other than stitched. I suppose it might be fake leather, but I've never, ever...

    Energy usage indicator

    Thank you! This will help with teaching my wife why gentle acceleration and early braking pays off.

    Energy usage indicator

    Someone had superimposed numbers of amps actually being used on the energy usage indicator and now I can't find it. It was the entire speedometer cluster and had white numbers over the usage bar. I'd sure appreciate it! Can anyone give a link to it? Fred

    My second IMIEV does not make the normal fan noise.

    I hear a fan or pump every time I plug in. It runs for 3 or 5 seconds, then shuts off. I assume it's a test. On level 2 charge it runs for a few seconds every 10 or 15 minutes.

    Free logo for sticker on car: "100% electric"

    Let's see if it works. http://i.imgur.com/ZfSEfHR.jpg <edit> it does! Thanks for the tip, aarond. The next thing I'd like to do is get a hi-res photo of a circuit board and make a print such that the area behind the license plate would show the circuits.

    Free logo for sticker on car: "100% electric"

    Cabin Air Filters

    Good day! We just purchased a 2012 Miev. We don't even have it yet! It will be delivered soon (I hope) So, yes, I'd be interested in a pair of filters. I can already see this car will be a maintenance nightmare. Gotta replace this filter every year or so and then in just six years will need...
