  1. iV will not shift to e-drive

    Which is guess begs the question why does the ICE need to run? What else is it doing that the car cannot get from running in e-mode?

    I have recently had this on my Superb IV. I have been driving in electric mode only for the past few weeks as I have not been on any long journeys. Last night on my way home from work with a full battery the engine came on and would not switch back to to e-mode. I was not accelerating hard but just driving at about 45mph on a country road? I can't see it would be the exhaust filter cleanup as I had not been using the engine so no exhaust gases to clean. Does the 12v battery need to be charged by the alternator with the engine running? Could this be why the engine needed to run?
