Indeed... Or just Nasty Green stuff 😎

Hello you're welcome. I would check with your dongle and download the CanZe app for Renault Zoe car from the Playstore or Apple Store. Do a check for battery state of health when charged full. Then discharge complete and recharge to 100% and check again. If you have the feeling the range is too low I would present the battery state of health figures you found together with the low range to the dealer and demand an inspection since the battery is under warranty still. Also an upgrade of the BMS system could be done free of charge if that is necessary. What really helped me is the complete drain to zero percent (drove it to 2 percent parked it and did the rest to get to zero with airco full blasting on a safe spot). And the recharge via the home socket all the way to 100 percent. I got somehow better readings and a bit more range consistently. Let me know how it goes and I hope it was helpful. Drive it around and drive it normal and empty a few times and it should be better with the range. If in doubt go to the dealer and write Renault customer service in your country with a formal complaint. Good luck and enjoy the new car .. I'm sure all will be alright we love the Zoe and is very reliable too 👍 By the way some people here wrote some very good comments and suggestions worth checking them out!

I cannot hide it 😂🇳🇱🌷

Indeed a very Important tip. And then it will last very long with great reliable performance 👍💪👑

Thanks 👍 I have the feeling it is less now after 1 year so definitely trying again this fall 🍁 and Winter ❄️ season

Indeed important tip, please note. Thanks 👍

Thanks that is a well calculated summary. Do you use something like this or another set up? Of course not ideal for extended time and higher demanding power appliances. But better than nothing if you don't want to hook up an inverter to the 12V AGM battery in the front or wire it directly to it. Nowadays they have some impressive power packs like the Jackery that have a big internal battery that could (partially) slower Re charge this way. But nothing beats the direct inverter to the battery 👍🙂

@@maximaalski No, I don't have any kind of set up for a power outage. I've been watching several other videos of how to draw power from an electric vehicle's battery. I do like your set up because it is very simple and easy to implement.

@toebeeleeyoung5287 thanks yeah I like the simplicity of it. To complement it I got myself some 12V accessoires like a water boiler, portable fridge box and blanket. Not like the real preppers do but simple and effective if I ever need it for some hours or day at home or on the road. Now I'm in dubio where to store my backup battery probably somewhere in the warm house instead of cold garage is still better what do you think?

Herzlichen Dank 🙂👍

No I would never work under the car with only a floor jack. Neither this one or any other brand even if it was 1000 dollars. I bought a set of Axl stands as a backup in case something were to happen to the MASKO floor jack. Much safer and no Extra work. Made a video about my Dunlop Axl stands on my channel I can highly recommend make sure you have a backup please 👍😀

@@maximaalskithanks, I bought one and I will weld the down pipe but I’m not sure 100% about it 😂

@elpiovra Cool I hope this offers extra comfort and you will also be happy with it. Just make sure you have a safety backup as all devices can potentially fail.

@@maximaalski thanks, I subscribed

@@maximaalski if you don’t hear about me the masko failed 😂

Thanks for the comment. I am curious... So even though regular tires with a higher weight/load index you're saying EV tires have a better re-inforced sidewall which should make them more durable and tougher, for example on rougher roads and when encountering potholes and such?

Hey that's an important one. Didn't realize that. For first year my wife charged to 100% always but now we don't charge beyond 80-90%. Unfortunately the Renault Zoe does not have a charge limit setting like for example my Opel ampera-e / Chevy Bolt EV

@@maximaalski I'm looking for a used 2020 Zoe at the moment. I just discovered something really interesting. On one dealer they have two Zoes that have done 60,000 miles / 90,000 Km. Looking at the dashboard pictures on their site, I did a quick calculation using the remaining range and remaining charge shown. It's a rough estimate, but those two high mileage cars both came out at 208 miles when 100% full. But they also have two cars that have done 20,000 miles / 30,000 Km, and by the same method they both have 185 miles range at 100%! Sure, I have no idea if the last two cars have recently been driven hard, affecting the range estimate. But even so, 208 real world miles from 4 year old high mileage car is pretty good I think.

Hi unfortunately I can't confirm this. I use a separate pouch and always take out the phone during charging without case. I do believe there was something written about it on the product page via the Amazon link I shared. Check it just to be sure 👍

Those are very good numbers and low battery degradation!

Thank you 👍 I'm super happy I can now check and do this myself!

I totally agree and it's always better to get an original branded charger specifically for that phone brand. The charging also develops and speeds go up. In my opinion they sell it to you that's for the environment, but in reality it is cost-saving and growing the profit margin. Same with the airplanes... stop serving you a complementary drink and Sandwich. Only trying to make more money. I miss the 90's and 00's when you would get the best chargers and sometimes even desk stands with a new phone!

Hey thanks a lot for your comments. I'm also definitely not an expert. I believe that the OBD device with the software that monitors different aspects of the main battery is a good compromise. It puts some of the power back in the people's hands to measure some of it themselves. Then if they see something abnormal bring it in for the full testing you suggest. I would most certainly trust the Germans with this and the certificate approach 😀 I was shocked that my wife's Renault Zoe dealer does not want to update the BMS for free. They want 75 EUR for it or that we purchase some accessories and they give it then for free. I'm going to write Renault directly about it. What do you think? Shouldn't a BMS update always be included and pushed to the car for free. Since it is responsible for monitoring the main battery and how it charges et cetera? Have a great weekend ahead 👍🍺

@@maximaalski We have inspections which cost money where they check general things, this also includes software updates, so Im not sure if or how much it would cost us to just update the software alone. But I agree that 75 for a software update is way too much, The BMS software seems to be buggy in some cases, so it should be free. Maybe you have to word it differently, instead of asking about the update, complain that the battery (or range) is too low and start to talk about battery warrenty and stuff, maybe they will get worried and update it for free :D

Thanks 👍 I love the wireless charging and still going strong. It has great battery protection software. I actually like the phone more I thought at first. Such a unique design that combines past memories and Retro Design with all the modern features we are used to.

Thanks And I can confirm it stayed nice like this for quite some time. The whole white color got renewed and rejuvenated 🌞

Hello I have not tested many polish yet but I did try out recently this Turtle Wax and I applied it by hand. I was very happy here is the video : ruclips.net/video/MgfJpxEGWD0/видео.html. I think I would use Sonax Liquid Wax 2 or 3 maybe also depending on your individual car. Good luck and I hope you will have a nice result. Let me know how it went

This is very nice 🙂 I am already looking forward to it too! 🌞

Hello, I can confirm I have used it both wet and dry and am equally happy with the results! I used it dry in one of my winter road trips to Bulgaria and was very happy with it. The video is called my first Bulgarian Car wash on my channel if in case you're interested . I hope you will like the product it is one of my favorites 👍

@@maximaalski brilliant! I did a test and the result is good, car is shiny but the hydrophobic property is not as good as using a ceramic detailer for example....I Use Rainx as a detailer

That's good to hear! I personally have not closely observed the hydrophobic effect much as I have only really looked at the deep color pop and shine it provides. What about rainx I'm curious I thought this was only a product for the windows? I also enjoy using Sonax Brilliant Shine Detailer spray. Have a good weekend 🍺

@@maximaalski Rainx Ceramic Detailer is a very good product for car paint, excellent shiny paint and hydrophobic properties. Rainx has many products for glass and rain, like anti fog and water repellent

Thanks 👍 The phone is fantastic and finally one that Wows me and takes me back to the time when phones were unique and standing out. That desk charger reminds me of 25 years ago back then most models had fancy looking desk chargers among the accessories. I hope the software updates will prolong your battery life! Best wishes and many good memories to you and your phone!

@@maximaalski thank you so much!

I didn't know they were active in the US under their own brand name. Indeed nice cars, especially their new hybrid and EV line are very popular here in Europe. Let's hope they will make a comeback on the US Market once again 😀👍

Ik heb echt niets over dosering kunnen vinden. Ik ga nog een keer kijken en mijn bril opzetten 😂

Next time I'm planning to take my Bockwurst and just run away from that cloud!
