Hi everyone, I’m looking for some advice. For the past 8 years, I’ve been charging my 2016 Outlander with the OEM “granny” charger that came with it. However, after returning home with a flat battery today, I plugged it in as usual and left it to charge overnight. When I unplugged it in the...

That’s great thanks for letting me know and taking the time to post the full how-to step by step guide

Hi Yes that is a little pricey 😱 but better than the inconvenience of not being able to start my car because my 8 year old battery had let me down I guess. Am I right in thinking at coming up for 8 years old my original battery must now be reaching the end of its serviceable life. I understand...

Hi Did you ever manage to source a replacement Auxiliary battery at a decent price, as I’m looking into replacing mine before I have any problems as it’s coming up to 8 years old next month

Hi Thanks for your input I have looked at the information you supplied but it’s way over my head. I have spoken to the dealership again and asked them why they have not provided me with a print out that shows the actual current battery capacity. Unfortunately, I was speaking to the service...

Ok that’s interesting, so you think they have not tested it correctly? To be honest I’m surprised by there results as I have noticed a constant reduction in Ev only mileage by around 8 to 10 miles over the 7 1/2 years I’ve owned it. I’m thinking it may be wise to take it to another Ev specialist...

Hi Guys Well had my capacity test done by the dealership today and they said everything is within the parameters of the guarantee with only 18% deterioration. They gave me a few print outs which mean nothing to me but I’m sure they will make a lot more sense to some of your guys on here so if...

Hi Yes I bought my car from the main Mitsubishi dealership and that same dealership has serviced my outlander since I’ve had it every year so it has a full Mitsubishi service history.

Hi guys Thanks for the reply’s, I now feel a bit more confident that I have been offered the correct check at the dealership. To be fair I don't rely on the guessometer, although I have to say it is pretty accurate with its mileage estimates. I do exactly as you suggest Andy and fully charge...

Hi guys Just looking for a bit of advice really, I’ve had my 2015 facelift outlander G4hs for the last 7 and a half years it’s been an absolute joy to own. So the warranty on my main drive battery runs out at the end of September, and recently I’ve noticed quite a drop in the actual miles I’m...

Hi Ive had my 2016 model outlander since it was 6 months old I used to get about 26 miles on pure ev but now I struggle to get 18 to 20 miles on exactly the same journey any idea if these figures means I should be asking for them to request a replacement battery pack. Thanks in advance

Night PHEVer I think you will find that doing that sequence you have just described is what you do to switch off The car interior ultrasonic protection for instance when you leave a dog in the car and activate the alarm Paul

Thanks for all the replays, On reflection I may be over thinking this a little, but I guess I was kind of the mind set that it sounded unusual (to me anyway) that all tyres had worn down at excatly the same rate. So having a very untrusting nature I was thinking if they hadn't done something as...

Hi Anko Yes I see your point but my reasons for asking on here are 2 fold 1) I don't actually have the tool needed to measure the tread depth 2 I'm not really sure of the correct procedure to do it accurately so even if my readings were different I wouldn't know if that was down to the garage...

Hi guys Just had my Gx4HS back from having its first service it's exactly 1 year old and done just 10400 miles on the original Toyo tyres. So my question is this on the safety/check sheet I got back it said my tread depth had been checked as part of the service and was at 6mm on inner middle...

Apparently although The charge was originally set to be £5 for a 20min charge, It now going to be set at £6 for a 30 minute charge session, Due to an outcry from angry drivers, the length of charge on offer was tweaked, along with the price. Still no good for the majority of us guys though :(

Well sorry to see you go Colin but I wish you luck with the new car Just to pick up on somthing you said in that last post about road tax being at least £140 for everybody from next April. Am I right in thinking its only for New vehicles purchased after April that the £140 fee is payable or will...

Brilliant tip emm3t I didn't know that thanks

Hi Ylexus Yes as Chris has said I also have the defrost button on my My16 To achieve what you want which is air flow only directed to the windscreen which is how i myself actually prefer it. Just press the defrost button then press the aircon button to turn off the aircon which automatically...

As carnut has said on the Eco info screen press the button in the bottom left hand corner which says manual or auto when you press that you will notice in the top right hand corner it will say manual or Auto I have the My 16 as you do and on mine its as follows When its saying Auto in top right...
