Hi In the UK Silverstone Green Energy are offering a free 16amp charge socket, to be fitted at Home,or for a fee of £100, a 32 Amp Socket. (UK Government will subsidise this.) I don't mind paying the £100 charge for a 32 Amp Socket, as I know this will reduce the charging time. The only thing...

Hi I,ve only ever used a Fast Charging Point once before and that was at Sarn Park Services Bridgend in Wales. I had a problem with Fail to Initialise, but got it working eventually, although it cut out twice. Today I have tried a New Fast Charge Point at Carmarthen which has recently been...

I have 2 battery packs which are inverters. They have a AC 3 Pin Socket(UK), and also a cigarette lighter socket. I have bought 2 (12 volt fan heaters) which plug into each battery pack, via the cigarette lighter socket. I have mounted one on the Dashboard via a magnetic Mount, and one in the...

I just got an E-Mail from Ecotricity regarding my experience at Sarn Park. They pointed out to me ,as somebody has already said that there is a red light on the handle of the plug which is barely visible which takes a minute or so to go out after finishing charging, and only then can you...

Many thanks got down to Turtle again today. This was because it was pouring with rain, and had to run demister fan although on low speed, and I drove it too fast on dual carriageway.

Thanks Don The car didn't come fitted with Mats but I will enquire at my dealership. Andy

The fitted Carpet don't come into contact with this. I bought Carpet Mats not Mitubishi ones, which are quite large and I could feel them moving when steering (. reversing out of my Driveway which requires full lock on steering_ This isn't a problem as I will make sure they are fitted so they...

I have noticed that the Steering Wheel Linkage which goes down through the Floor in the Drivers Footwell catches on the Car Mat in the Footwell, and I could feel this when steering. I have had a look at it this morning, and have pulled the Car Mat back a bit to stop this happening. Can anybody...

Hi all. As U know the fan comes on at intervals when charging. Had to go out in a hurry part way through Charging and unplugged the car at the wall. The fan was on and it carried on going after I unplugged it. Dose the Fan work of the 12 Volt Battery when charging, and if so dose the 12 Volt...

HI all. I live in Wales UK and own an iMiev. I have read today that Guide Dogs For The Blind UK are campaigning to make it law for Electric cars to have noise Generators. I noticed a couple of weeks ago whilst driving that 2 little Birds flew straight towards me. I thought Id killed them but...

Had the car 6 weeks now just checked Tyre Pressure as they looked a bit flat. They were all at 20PSI when the manual says 36PSI. Pumped them up. I thought that as the Mitsubishi garage hadn't checked the Tyre Pressures when selling it to me then they probably haven't checked the coolant level...
