Re: Puddle / mirror down lights extra marks in Cupra logo
same issue here, both gone at the same time but the drivers side worse. I did use a hand car wash for the first time recently, normally I do it at home with a bucket and pathetic water pressure but still, a car £40K should be able to be washed thoroughly without disintegrating. Im booked in in March...

Re: Best Winter Advice
Honestly, I haven’t noticed a major difference in the range. Maybe I’m using a couple of % more on my journeys, say normally it’d use 8-10% to get to work and now it’s around 10-12%. I was down to 50% yesterday and it was saying 100 miles. Ave consumption is hovering around 3-3.2 I’ve got the pre he...

Re: Tyre wear
Yeah, I’ve done 9000 and the rear two are ready for changing. Had two nails in the space of a week just before Christmas, one front one back, had the back one repaired but it’s going to need changing before we get a cold snap.

Roadside Recovery
Today I had to use the SOS call button after a blowout on the motorway. Got to say, I was pleasantly surprised by how easy and pain free it was. Spoke to a lovely lad and the AA were there within half an hour to patch it and refill it to get me to a tyre place. Only downside is the £155 for a new ty...

Re: Intelligent Octopus and Cupra
I've since been educated and can improve the experience by taking away the price cap setting in the Ohme app - I hadn't quite realised that any smart charging during "peak" hours was actually charged at off peak rates, instead of forcing it to only charge between 23:30 and 05:30 Yeah I’ve...

Re: Would you have another Born?
I’d definitely have another! I’ve had mine since august - bought used with 5000 miles and I’ve had very few issues. It’s my first full EV and the charging has been easy save the odd teething problem with apps. Yes the whole infotainment system is faffy but to be honest every car we’ve had has been p...

Re: Ohme Pro/ Intelligent Octopus
Thanks, that’s really helpful! I think I’ve found the solution - I’ve linked my charger rather than the car to my Octopus app. I’m wondering if the recent update I had has messed this up as up to now it worked a dream. Just as I type I’m getting a notification from Octopus to say I only reached 47% ...

Re: Ohme Pro/ Intelligent Octopus
I’m not sure, normally if I go out and plug back in it give me a new schedule. I’ve disconnected and reconnected it which it said was successful. Still no schedule showing though. Did manage to get it to start a bump charge after this at least. I’ve logged out of the Ohme app but the charging unit s...

Ohme Pro/ Intelligent Octopus
I’ve had my Born since September and been happily charging it using the Octopus app with no issues. I have their Ohme pro but have never used the app. I just stop the charge on the Cupra app and let octopus do the rest. I had a coupe of glitches where I’ve needed to reset it over this time because i...
