Trying to solve intermittent issue.
Starting no problem usually then nothing. All lights function correctly but nothing when trying to start. No clicking from starter motor? Starter solenoid maybe or some sensor when pressing clutch? Immobiliser?
Thanks Read more
Anyone know the location and how to access this. Could it be a diy job if familiar with mechanics? Read more
We love our electric car but it took 8 hours to do a 3 hour journey! Setting off with a full battery. Why? App says chademo is working, get there, 10minutes waiting to speak to someone, only to find out it's been out of order 12 days but wasn't added to the app. Pretty much all the way down to the M42, charging points out of order..or not updated as working or not. Charging points we can't use like Tesla were even not working. Eventually we got to the slip rd to the services with z Chademo, literally 1/4 mile away & the power went & had to get recovered, only to find the MOTO service Chademo was out of order too! For 60 miles we searched for a working & fadt charger. THAT is NOT a good advertisement to go ekectric!

Jeremy - it'll make more sense to deal with all your (linked) problems on one thread, so I've closed the others.
Hi,
I'm in the process of buying a 2008 Mercedes A150 from a local garage. I've put a refundable deposit on it until they have valeted it and put a 12month MOT on it after which I intended to buy it. However they have told me that they've discovered a problem with the ECU which they need to get fixed in order for it to pass the MOT. ... Read more
I don't think that matters.
