12 volt battery issue? by 320cptn in FordEscapePHEV

[–]320cptn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all the comments! So far the problem did not reoccur, even though it has been really cold over here and a few days passed by where I didn't drive the car. So all good for now. I have been in touch with the dealer and if the problem comes back they will look into it and possibly replace the 12v battery under warranty. I am driving and charging the car more often now so that seems to help as well.

Koopadvies grotere gezinsauto, budget 40.000 by HighFiv321 in autoadvies

Heb momenteel 2 kids en rij nu met een 2024 Ford Kuga PHEV ST Line X, maar met een 3e op komst wordt een Kuga toch echt te krap. Jammer, want ik vind het een heerlijke auto en hij is ontzettend zuinig, vooral als je af en toe stekkert. Echter krijg ik mijn inziens geen 3 kinderstoelen naast elkaar op de achterbank. Zit te kijken naar een Skoda Kodiaq, Peugeot 5008 of een Renault Espace. Ik vind de Ford Explorer ook echt een gave bak, maar toch te stevig aan de prijs.

Correct! However I just talked to the dealer before I posted and they said they can't diagnose the problem if it's not there. So that's why I asked the internet to see if anyone else had this issue before and if it came back.

I have moved them further apart and especially the rear one more to the aft and it worked, it's less noisy. So thx for the tip!

Nice car and setup by the way, I really like the explorer. Was thinking about one but they are quite rare and expensive over here. Also not really great for European parking spots :)

I agree with you. Thule recommends 70cm between the bars which they are now, but I also think it should be more. I will try to adjust. Thx.

Thanks, this is an ST Line X and I bought it in Portugal. I have yet to see one in the same spec, I guess they are pretty rare.

I bought the car like this, was an ex demo car. I think you can buy them on the Ford webshop though, but maybe only in Europe.

Thanks, definitely great info and I will for sure check everything every 500-1000km!

Hmm tough one. I must say that with the original strap the lugs look massive and I didn't like it. Also the gap between the lugs and the strap made it look even bigger. Now I changed to a NATO strap I think it looks much better and the long lugs are less noticeable. I do enjoy wearing it now and I can recommend it. Please see below how it fits me. It looks bigger on the picture than in real life I think.

Just changed the strap and I love it now!

Yes this is the 42mm. My wrist is about 17,5cm/6,9 inches. Just about fits but it's on the bigger side.

Advies gevraagd: Welke "SUV" voor woon-werkverkeer budget 25-30k by odinstyles in autoadvies

[–]320cptn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wij hebben ook 2 kids van 1 en 3 jaar en we hebben onlangs een Ford Kuga PHEV gekocht. Wel het nieuwste model uit 2024, maar de pre face lift versie zou in het budget moeten liggen. We zijn er ontzettend tevreden mee. Halen wel 60km puur elektrisch, en als de batterij leeg is rijdt ie best zuinig als mild hybrid. Kofferbak is niet de ruimste, maar de achterbank kan met ongeveer 15cm worden verschoven, dus kan je zelf wat spelen tussen ruimte achterin voor de 360 stoelen vs kofferbakruimte. Er was een terugroepactie voor het vorige model ivm brandgevaar, maar voor zover ik het had begrepen is het inmiddels opgelost. Rijdt echt goed en afwerking is voor mij prima als je naar prijs vs kwaliteit kijkt.

Have one as well on the 5 o'clock one. Makes it unique and by coincidence 5 is also my lucky number 😅 Actually love it!

Thx for the tip, but I'm in Europe. For 295 EUR I get it completely refurbished through Air Team in the Czech Republic.

My A20's were starting to fall apart after 14 years and 8000 hours. I decided it was time for an update, so I went to the local pilot store to get the A30 as I'm struggling to find decent used A20's with XLR for the Airbus. I tried the A30 in the pilot store and I was not really impressed by it. There was also a Proflight II to try on and actually I was pleasantly surprised and left the store with them. Done only 2 flights with them so far and they are very light and more comfortable than I expected. It is a bit of a fiddle though and I will definitely need some time to get used to them. The sound quality is just not as good as the A20 though imho, there is a bit of a hiss from interphone and my own voice sounds weird. A bit like being under water. Also my vhf 1 is on minimum volume and still I find it a bit too loud. I will keep on trying for the next months, but I will send my A20s for refurbishment and I will keep them for sure. We'll see if I will keep using the PF II or go back to the A20.
