    Tow hitch for bike rack?

    Ah, er, um... just take the front wheel off, it is an easy operation, and makes putting a single bike in quite easy. The wheel can then be placed next to the bike on the folded down seat...

    RESOLVED Noisy in Sprint mode?

    Is this the sound you are hearing when in Sprint mode or preconditioning? I heard it for the first time today when I started preconditioning (I guess I'd always been moving in the past when preconditioning, but today I was parked).

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    Checking my spreadsheet of charging sessions of our 19" AGT (lots of #s), typically battery charged when at roughly 40% SOC taking it to 80% SOC: My wife driving, DC to Delaware short, 4.57 mi/kw = 512 mi range Lots of trips (10 mph over limit?) with using in the 4.4-4.5 mi/kw range (490-500ish...

    Wind noise

    As I've read this thread (and felt lucky so far as to not noticing any problem in this area) I have been mentally noting that when the seat cooling is on, that fan produces quite a bit of "wind noise" (right next to the headrest). It varies by the seat fan speed, and is the loudest (relative to...

    OTA 2.1.2 / 2.1.3

    I hope it helps more than just CarPlay, as I find the microphone in the Air to less than measure up to much of the rest of the car... heck, my VW GTI's far outperforms the AGT's.

    Lidar Blocked whenever it rains - what does the Lidar do?

    Huh? I've seen EA working fast numerous times (when the SOC is low enough)... far above what the tesla stations could do (especially if they are limiting them to 50kw for their CCS adaptor).

    Tow hitch for bike rack?

    I'm not sure they will allow you to put a bike in there for a demo car (I took lots of tape measure measures before we bought)... I get my road bike in (rear wheel first, back seat folded flat, front wheel off, trunk basement closed off), but it is "less than fun" to slide it in (especially...

    Turtle Mode ruins the road trip

    I recall the night (Xmas day evening in fact) my ICE left the wif & I by the side of the road due to a failed belt (alternator + water pump... very similar very quick fail), caused by a loose idler wheel related to a repair of just a couple of months earlier... never found myself needing to get...

    Green Car Reports Article: Expensive EV Collision Repair

    EVs tend to have more things like sensors embedded in the body and prep for driver assist functions (more $). They also are much more concerned with lowering weight, thus more aluminum parts (which tend to be less fixable). They tend to be either new models or worse yet new makers, and thus less...

    How Much Range Are You Actually Getting?

    A GT vs a T (with less weight from a smaller battery as well as less power)... a Granny Smith to Red Delicious comparison...

    Coolant Leak and Other Issues (DE)

    Its not just their EVs too... a friend in FL who has been without their Jetta for 6+ months because of a lack of a basic part for an $8K body shop repair. ... and yea, its fair to compare VW & Lucid when it appears that it is the mainstream car company that has lost their way and is failing.

    Coolant Leak and Other Issues (DE)

    I want information, not just data... while there is overlap, all data is not information.

    Coolant Leak and Other Issues (DE)

    Those little meters can also reveal much useful information to the interested observer... for instance, something as simple as the Windows Task Manager Performance tab reveals a lot about the characteristics of the app collection on your computer (for instance, it and the equivalent on other...

    Android Wi-fi in my network?

    I still don't get it... the car is (when powered up) connecting to a wifi (whose arbitrary name is AndroidAP_8486, which does not mean it is powered/created by Android). The iPhone can also connect to this wifi (that's how wifi works). Are you saying that the iPhone can only see that wifi when...

    Android Wi-fi in my network?

    If I read this correctly, it just says the the car is using a hot spot provided by a phone (as one would expect it to be able to do)... am I misreading something?

    Android Wi-fi in my network?

    I should also note that my vampire drain has not returned with the recent turning on of the wifi... perhaps the updates did some work in this area(?), still doesn't explain how it got turned back on (and it is unreasonable for an update to have done so).

    USB Ports

    Thanks for those #s! They seem quite anemic to me, especially compared to what that 12v socket in the trunk supposedly puts out. This means that USB-C to 12v socket converter would not work (I was considering it as an alternative to the USB-A to 12v converter that can just eek out running the...

    USB Ports

    That is for USB-A and 5v systems... USB-C can do much higher voltages (e.g. PD is capable of up to 48 V at 5 A). This is the sort of info that should be in the "specs" chapter of a user guide. In my case it is much more than just idle interest also, turns out there are USB-C to 12v sockets such...

    Android Wi-fi in my network?

    I have "Wifi Analyzer" installed on my phone (which finds wifi head ends) and it finds no Android network being advertised (with the car's wifi being either on or off). I see lots of nets that only identify themselves by address, but none that claim to be an Android based system (lots of the...

    USB Ports

    It sure would be nice to know the exact specs for the 4 USB ports... I tried to charge an AirMoto (uses 5v USB-C at 2A), but it will not charge (but does do so using its USB-A to USB-C cable in the car)... my Samsung S22+ does fast charging just fine off the front USB-C port (I believe that is...
