the truth about electric cars

Indeed, more of an OZ, US thing. Chiba seems to be quickly rolling out full electric trucks with no ICE onboard.

Perhaps we will get smaller, shorter, lighter unit in Europe.

the truth about electric cars

Yes a bit of a gimmick i suppose.
Just makes people think is the plan.

UK Solar currently can add add about 6 GW in ideal conditions and time but not at 1800, 1900, 2000 hours, even my tracking arrays are getting much than at 1300 BST, 1200 GMT but I think home solar is adding maybe a GWh at that time. All across the world the amount of home solar and home batteries is growing much quicker that Grid silar farm and BESS plants.

Electricity is oft cheaper than the weekdays and has been negative for us tracking tariffs but is not due to be super cheap this Sunday looking at Agike Predict so an hour of free is welcome and I may put 2 or even all 3 EVs on charge whilst keeping an eye on total current draw. Heat water ad well jf enough headroom. Duller days head after this heat wave it is reckoned. May go back to GO night time cheap tariff.

Unable to code STG 09 / BCM and STG 03 / Brakes on Kamiq

Problem solved.
When I connected ODIS it auto-identified the car. In the attached screen shot you can see that it says SK37x. But the Kamiq is a SK27x. When I changed this manually ALL controllers were read without issues and coding was a breeze.

Advice on new (to me) 25-plate Scala SE 116 TSI

Yes placing a demand on the steering system will also force the engine to restart.

For many many years now, I've bought and fitted a plug in 12V DC voltmeter - Chinese made bought via ebay, having one of them does let you see what is going on wrt the charging voltage, okay these cheap - roughly £5 voltmeters will not be extremely accurate - but in my experience, they are good enough to let you work out things like why the auto stop/start is or is not operational.

The battery life of the original EFB battery depends a lot on how the car has been used over its lifetime, for reference (maybe) my wife's August 2015 VW Polo 1.2TSI never had any issues with its original battery, but I had fallen into the trap of "everyone says that these EFB batteries fail quite quickly" so I bought a new "next size up" Bosch AGM battery really to be ready to swop when the original battery failed at an inconvenient time during the winter. Well that just did not happen, so after storing it and "topping it up" every few months, for a "few" years, I ended up replacing the original Exide EFB with this "one size up" AGM when the car was 10 years old. My older daughter has a May 2019 SEAT Leon Cupra, again it has an Exide EFB and when I last tested it with my CTEK battery tester, it still looks very very healthy - which is okay, I'd doubt if she ever disables auto Stop/Start and only connected it to a CTEK charger during Covid lock down period. My younger daughter has a May 2019 SEAT Arona "bells and whistles" version - they badly under use that car and it bit them in as much as they needed to call the AA out to fit a replacement EFB battery after the original Exide EFB became unuseable - that was maybe 3 winters ago.

Since that message, I have had almost no more problems. It's strange. I have an appointment at the Skoda dealership on August 25th; I will keep you updated.
