Re: Failed brake servo/pedal simulator - a how-to DIY fix

Would it be possible to get a photo or a screenshot of the letter? It could be used as an argument for those who haven't received it yet or won't receive it at all. I have a suspicion that our clueless dealership won't be aware of the existence of this issue.

Weird behavior with an open bonnet

Yesterday, I decided that it was time to fill the washer fluid. As you might expect, the procedure was uneventful, and by the end of it, I had closed the bonnet and locked the car. Now the weird part starts the next morning. The first thing I've noticed is that the car is not preheating on schedule ...

Re: Can you fit an adult road bike in the car?

What you can fit in the E with the seats folded (personal experience): -A foldable ebike (folded); -A 53" flat tv in its OEM packaging (very tight squeeze, two people needed); -A set of 4 Honda e tiers with a spare space for an electric scooter (smaller scooter like a Xiaomi). -An electric trim...

Re: Rear bumper to replace - Advise Pls

If the replacement is covered by insurance, replace it and ask the dealership to keep the old one as a spare. One can never have too many spare bumbpers :D

Re: The race for small EVs !

I don't think it is fair to compare the i3 to anything on the market when talking weight. The car's unique selling point is that it is made out of carbon so naturally it is lighter by design. I am sure you have seen the skinny bicycle tyres on that thing which are also much ligther than the E's wide...

Re: Depreciation

Mine was pre-registered 12 months before purchase from the dealer. Got it with 11 kilometres, 5k discount and the warranty started from the date of purchase rather than the day of registration. There are a couple of downsides with that. 1. The government grand is 2,5k less for a pre-registered car s...

Re: Turn away if you don't like naff stuff

The type R looks juicy. Funny that it drops pretending to be efficient and gets normal mirrors :D Kinda looks better with the mirrors tbh. The camera mirrors always give me Shrek's ear vibes. Off-road Honda E looks funny. But looking at it makes me happy that they've discontinued the car. I am prett...

Re: Daily Charging?

I have free charging at work and keep my battery at 80% charge limit. So I am charging it daily. There are two minor annoyances with that: 1. If it is raining and you have to get the cable from the boot, water will drip on you when it is open. Some cars are designed with that in mind. Unfortunately,...

Re: How range is affected

My father has the same attitude to the gas tank as your wife. As someone who had to bring him gas after he run out of it in the middle of the road, I don't share that attitude :D If you are so worried about running out of electricity mid-journey, get yourself an Ecoflow delta battery. It won't exten...
