Re: Wheels Size and Driving Experience with 85x SportPlus

while the wheel is large, the overall diameter on the enyaq is also large, at 29" For comparison, my Audi A4 has 18" wheels but an overall diameter of 26", giving about 8" of rubber. Almost exactly the same as the enyaq with 21" wheels. Its not like putting 21" wheels o...

Re: Laziest way to wash your Enyaq

Yeah, the lazy way to wash your car is dont :p

I have all the kit to do it properly, but no time. Given the choice between trying to do a quick job and wrecking the paint, and just leaving it dirty, i tend to just leave it.

Re: Switching phones, Apple CarPlay

do you need to switch to take a call?

Not looked super closely, but i've definately been in the car, with my phone connected to Android Auto, and the wife has made a call from her phone which automatically went thru the bluetooth handsfree without any other intervention.

Re: optimum charging pattern?

That depends how you define "bad". It wont break it. Regular charging to 100% will reduce the batteries life a little. Especially so if it sits around for long periods of time at 100%. The futher away from 100% you are the longer the battery will last. Something like 50% is probably optima...

Re: Trailer delivery?

There are many factors, the trailers themselves are sometimes only rated to 2600 or 3000kg for instance, and that includes the weight of the trailer which might be 800kgs. Then the capacity of the tow vehicle obviously comes into it. Plenty of tow vehicle/trailer combinations will be perfectly fine ...

Re: optimum charging pattern?

sounds fine, though i would from time to time charge to 80-90% as that will help the BMS calibrate itself more accurately.

Re: Best public charging option

Most chargers now take credit cards (it was made a legal requirement last year so any new ones installed from then on will have it for sure). However sometimes, cheaper prices are available with an RFID scheme. Electroverse for instance has varying discounts and the card is free, so i've picked one ...

Re: Enyaq 85 breakdown call and audio issue

Certainly somewhat disappointing that 3 years into production we're still seeing these issues. You can somewhat excuse some teething issues on a brand new platform (maybe!), but 3 years in and with a "refreshed" 85 model introduced, to still be having the SAME issues is pretty sad.

Re: Trip to the South West from the Midlands

Electroverse certainly gives you a discount on some chargers, and thus is cheaper than just using contactless.
