    Fuel costs

    Simple calculation : I drive a Peugeot 307 with autogas: year costs with taxis : 75euro (gas)x12 (months) = 900 euro + 260euro (taxis/year)=1160 As for service I do it my self most of the part so I need 100 euro per year for it. 1160 + 100=1260 so 1260 x15 years = 15120 euro. Peugeot ion: No...

    Fuel costs

    If you swap the battery under guaranty then I agree with you that the car is economical to drive! otherwise, I don t think so! At least now. Maybe in the future when the cost of the battery falls to 6000 euro or so then it is economical to drive this car

    You were lucky to repair it yourself! My problem with my OBC is not 2 blown capacitors and some resistors! I charge my ION also with sollar or at my work but 10.000 euros for a battery must be considered to the cost of driving this car and nobody talks about it! Economic is when you buy this...

    Fuel costs

    Hallo Joe5, Please tell me where is the fuel economy if you pay 10000 euro on a battery after 15 years! I have bought the Peugeot ion (used 22.000Km) for 12.000 euro I charged with solar power, I have never charged with a fast charger and now I can make only 80Km without heat and air...

    Economical is when you pay for the battery 5000 euros or so and not 10.000. Eventually, you will change the battery and for every penny you saved on gasoline you will pay it to Mitsubishi! And pray until then that everything is going well with your car!

    Hi, This Car is not economical !!! They simply shift the gasoline costs that the gas station takes to the manufacturer (In this case Mitsubishi ) ! The charger goes bad after 8 years or so and you must pay 4000 euro for another! The battery must be changed after 15 years or so and cost until yet...

    The Troubleshooting and Repair for On-board Charger (OBC) Thread

    It is 50/50 !!! The resistors don t blow the thermal fuse in one of the resistors is triggered! From my experience, it happens sometimes without reason in some devices if the thermal fuse has continuous stress from heat! I will put them outside of the case because they produce heat and heat is...

    The Troubleshooting and Repair for On-board Charger (OBC) Thread

    Thanks for the photo! I measure the points and found that I have not 9.4 ohms. So I gently destroy the resistors and found out that the big resistor has a thermal Fuse inside and this fall! These resistors must never put there from the beginning! They must be placed outside the charger because...
