I already had the CMU updated. Anyone done the update that is supposed to fix 3rd party EVSA incompatibility? Did it work?
 
I'm guessing when we all go in for the recall to have the brake vacuum pump replaced, we'll probably get another software update at that point - It would make really good sense to do so while the car is already there getting the pump replaced

I'm hoping to get my one year 'service' done at the same time . . . . or at least get them to reset the miles/months indicator on the RR meter :D

You can do this yourself, did it myself, look in the manual and will provide instructions on resetting this.
 
I am not sure that it is about the same issue, but I took my Citroen czero to a new garage who luckily is also a Mitsubishi dealer and they have a specialist for the iMieV and another one for the CZero!

Anyway they updated some software that optimized the charging time. I think it reduces a waiting time... probably not making a measurable impact.

For other European members who own Peugeot iOn or Citroen Czero, I confirm that there is also a fix for the radio lights. Namely factory settings turned off radio lights as soon as the car lights were turned on. This can be fixed by setting the radio lights settings from 0% to 20% (when car lights are on).
 
So did this fix the issue of using the Remote while charging at 220 EVSA chargers aborts the charge?

As a Wattstation owner, I'm pretty sick of this issue. I just want to use the remote without the car freaking out and shutting down the session.
 
It probably did nothing for the European owners of C-Zero's and Peugeot iOn's because I don't think they came with remotes like the stateside iMiEV's do. I did read somewhere that Mitsu was aware of the issue with the remote not functioning correctly with some brands of EVSE's, so I'd feel pretty confident that the next software upgrade will indeed resolve these problems - No promises of course, but since it probably wasn't considered a big enough 'issue' to recall all North American cars to the garage for, it probably will be addressed the next time they have the service computer hooked to the car for any reason

Since i did pass 15k in year one, there was another software update, and I was curious to see if we could get more data such as actual pack voltages, capacity, and degradation since new, i went on in to a local dealer for the one year checkup and recalibration. They didn't choose to remind me that Mitsu says this is unnecessary as long as you do at least one deep discharge per year followed by an uninterrupted full recharge. :eek:
As expected, it was pretty much a waste of time and $100+. :oops: The report is dumbed down to the point of "Good...Good...Good", and they swore to me that no actual numbers were available from the pack cycling machine. I did pick up a license plate frame for $10 under list and order a hood prop rod replacement for the one that got mangled by an oaf at a car show (I suspect a fellow EAA member ;-).
They also had no objection to me doing my own cabin air filter and didn't try any nonsense like the brake fluid replacement that some LEAF dealers are pushing...
 
Well i'm at the Dealer right now. I brought my laptop and I'm using their WiFi.

So at this moment they are applying the Software Update to deal with the Clipper Creek issue. I'm also getting my Annual maintenance done, so I'll update about that as well.

When I get home tonight, you can bet I'll be testing the effects of this patch with my WattStation right away! Update to follow on that as well.
