Thanks for the update. Keep up the good work!

I'm not sure how you might prove to Mitsubishi that you have been using the suspension string correctly. But good luck with the warranty.

Remember there’s no such thing as a “free lunch”! You might be right to describe regenerative breaking as providing “almost free electricity”, though, as it would otherwise be wasted. An important thing to recognise is that the electricity provided by the ICE is not as cheap as the electricity...

Well, you could. But you shouldn't. I'm not sure that the tow bar would expect such forces (A-frame or trailer). I think the handbook may say something about towing (in case of emergency) and it may limit the speed to be towed at, if allowed at all. Probably cheaper to hire at your destination...

I don't think it's mentioned in the manual, but I have found that different sources play mono on different sides.

Perhaps you "almost" did? ;)

Have you tried a different dealer?

I agree with everything except the conclusion in your last sentence. 10 litres is a large capacity for a bit of (even chunky) pipework. I think it more likely that most of them were still in the (bottom of the) tank before refilling.

If you're looking for savings, I'm sure there are cheaper solutions, not involving electric motors. Charging away from home is impractical, certainly en route. If you can charge at your destination, that's different. The car you choose to own depends on many personal factors and what you intend...

The problem with quoted mpg figures is that they totally ignore the electrical contribution. It makes any mpg figure meaningless. The car may tempt you to drive more patiently and return better fuel consumption as a result. I think my "raw" mpg is around 30mpg, overall, after taking away assumed...

Yes, electricity does not come free! You could assume about 10kWh per charge (to keep the arithmetic easy) 250kWh would be about 25charges. So you recharge from empty, perhaps, every week day? I add the cost of fuel used to that of electric charging and am averaging around 12.5p/mile. It's...

I'd like to be able to swap units from miles to kilometres, when passing from UK to Europe. Much easier for adhering to speed limits, which they seem to be tightening-up on now.

If it's any comfort, I'm not sure how much of an improvement the bigger engine is. True, the market is promising more choice in the near future. Interesting times, if you can be patient.

I assume that you're describing a situation where you're next to empty (battery & fuel)? I also assume that the algorithms to calculate remaining distance determine some level of confidence and display the '---' when very uncertain, rather than mislead.

What happened to 'Sticky Buttons'? I'd like it to remember the Speed Limiter settings and 'B-level' after I've switched off. EDIT: OK, I've since seen that 'Sticky Buttons' are in a "Second Poll"

Not that cold, though? I was told to expect only 2/3 of range in Winter. Just shows how much people really know about these things. In Summer, there'll be AirCon to consider - just cannot win. Something that these things soon teach you, if you monitor the energy consumption, is how much fuel is...

You should feel lucky. I'm only getting 14miles from a full charge and the vehicle's only a couple of months old (MY19). :roll:

I reckon you'll be fine. The engine will have charged the battery and the BMS should have made sure that the batteries were treated correctly. It has been used as a pure Hybrid, with no plug-in. Enjoy!

MY19 models don't have USB sockets in the armrest box but there is one behind it (for back seats). That can be used for data (CarPlay). I have routed an extension from that into the armrest box. If I forget to remove the phone, at least it remains out of sight and the cabling, too.

Do you need to have the phone "up front"? It may be tidier to use the rear USB socket and place the phone under the arm rest between the front seats.
