    So Long, Sold, Leasing a PHEV

    Well, five flawless years with my SE. Sold it to a friend. Leasing a 2018 Outlander PHEV. It is an amazing value, and I can see what Mitsu learned from the MiEV in it. (The brake lights come on during significant regen braking, for example. ) The PHEV has some overkill in the tech, but I can...

    Dunlop Availability / Price

    Hi All - I want to stick with the OEM Dunlops. I have 21000 miles on the original set, and the wear is very good. I can likely get almost two more years out of these. However, I am nervous about the Enasaves in these sizes remaining available. Onlinetires.com has them for $235 for the front...

    Pre-Heat Error

    I am using the remote as instructed to pre-heat. It worked several times, but not for the last week. The selector is in Park, I am using Level 2, (120v-12a) not Quickcharge, I try right after starting charging in the garage at 48F so the battery temp should be in a good range. The seat heater...

    "1 Year" Service, Dealer Experience

    Hi All, We put our 2012 in service June 9, 2013. About February the little wrench icon light came on, but I waited and eventually it went off. (About July.) This MiEV was purchased from Appleway Mitsu in Spokane, WA, as they were being rolled up by AutoNation. I never felt like they gave...

    "Manual" Pre-Climate Control

    With the charger running, I have turned the key to ACC and turned on the heat. Maybe I am too impatiient, but I don't get warm air. The fan runs, but that seems to be it. Do I have to use the Remote to get pre-drive cabin conditioning?

    AVAS Modification? (higher speed)

    Someone who said he worked on a Focus electric also said you could reprogram it's AVAS through the diagnostic port. Well, the Focus has no warning system. Maybe it was a LEAF. Anyway, I sure would love to have my MiEV make noise up to 50 mph, since I pass through deer alley twice on every...

    Charging outside in the rain

    I don't see any mention in the manual about NOT charging in the rain... has anyone had any problems? I have covered the brick (with air space for cooling) and closed a plastic bag in the rear door and rear hatch, covering the plug-in. A waste of time?

    Lowering Anyone?

    Hi - I was looking at my Miev yesterday, and it looks like it can come down about 4" and be fine with tire clearance. This would reduce frontal area a lot, and improve range for sure. Anyone looked into this yet?

    Auto Stop Charging?

    Hi All! Day 2 with my new MiEV! (S.E. Washington state, 160 miles from my dealer.) The first evening after delivery I charged to 16 bars anf then stopped it manually, not wanting to let it run while I slept until more familiar. Drove 32 miles and drew it down to 7 bars. Plugged in for 12...
