  1. The over optimistic figures quoted by car manufacturers to give the Would Like To Predict (WLTP) figures are no different to the MPG figures quoted. E.g the quoted MPG figure of an IS300h is 64.2 mpg and a fuel tank size of 66 litres giving a range of 932 miles. The average MPG figure when I had my IS was 44.8 MPG, giving a range of 650 miles. A 30% reduction in range. So not much different for the EV perceived drop in range. This too is affected by cold temperatures and poor weather. However I did travel 15 miles yesterday and only lost 15 miles in range. On a full charge (100%) I am getting a dash range of 165 miles with aircon on (UX300e).
  2. Hi and welcome, good choice. It’s probably so mucky under there as there is no reason to open the bonnet apart from yearly servicing and to top up the washer fluid. Enjoy Paul
  3. Not seen this message either and I regularly charge to 100% and drive in B mode all the time. Is it a feature of the long range version?
  4. Thanks, but the UX app is different. There is no Charging Schedule, just Upcoming Charge, where you can set a one off start time, or departure time.
  5. Hi, Could someone please explain how the scheduled charging from the App works. I have a UX300e but suspect it will be the same for the RZ. In the app I can set a start time for a charge, or a finish time but not both. (Incidentally how do you delete a set charge?) If I have cheap electricity between 12 am and 5 am. How do I get it to charge between these times. Do I plug the cable in, set a start time of 12 am and it will automatically stop when the battery is full? Or do I set a finish time of 5am and hope it starts and charges at the rate it expects to be full at 5am. Then it will stop charging at 5am even if it is not full. When I go out at 8am I unplug the cable. I am using a Zappi home charger. Thanks Paul
  6. Have you actually listend to the standard radio? Linas is well known for hating it but I can’t tell the difference between the standard IS radio to the ML system in my UX.
  7. I couldn’t find anything in the customization section of the handbook. You could always put the indicator on full then cancel when you are ready and welcome to LOC
  8. I miss being able to do a manual wipe of the windscreen without taking it out of auto. The IS had a button on the stalk for auto wipers so you could flick the stalk to wipe the windscreen manually and keep it in auto.
  9. It could be that the dealer gives a poor trade in value because of the colour. Blazing Carnelian is not a popular colour (although I would have one that colour if the wife’s car was not Orange).
  10. I spent ages trying to find the dipstick in my UX300e. But then I looked in the wing mirror and there it was staring me in the face.
  11. If their a non return valve in the pipe work that could be blocked? Check the pipes back from the jets to the tank if you can get at them. There is usually a valve (black plastic fitment in the pipe) that stops the water draining back into the tank. These can get blocked. If you take it out make sure you put it back in the correct way.
  12. Sorry to hear of your encounter. You did the right thing. why can’t people be nice to each other ? We need more people to drive like Ogmios. Check out his other videos too
  13. Is it Mercedes that don’t have a dip stick (apart from the one behind the wheel)? 🙃 Sorry someone had to say it.
