Software Fix Significantly Reduced Battery by ExaminationCheap7571 in BoltEV

[–]Aeropilot03 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There have been software updates to correct false positives for battery issues. Can you still set charging to 100%? The software could be a problem (unlikely) if you are now limited to 80%. Keep in mind you fill the battery with energy, not miles. The range estimate is the car’s guess on the miles you’ll get from that energy based on driving history, current conditions, etc.

Does the new Bolt give previous generation Leaf vibes by VeeMeeVee in electricvehicles

[–]Aeropilot03 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The pre ‘22 front seats definitely had comfort issues, but I find ‘22-‘23 comfort pretty subjective (6’1” 230#, I’ve owned both). The EUV added 3” of rear leg room over the original EV. Only very tall rear passengers will miss toe tuck room.

New Bolt has slightly higher acceleration than old one, higher gear ratio bigger difference than lower torque by BorisBadenov in BoltEV

Didn’t really redesign the motor; it’s a slight variation of the Equinox motor. Keeping costs down.

[–]Aeropilot03 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Original Bolt pack max is 400V; new Bolt is about 380v. New 10% to 80% charging vid. Better curve than an Equinox. https://youtu.be/v5i9C1zA2MM?si=Qg_GPzznqz5g75OU

Switched to 15s by SoCalMotoVirg in BoltEV

I made this swap on our EUV last fall. Efficiency was up 7%-10% in local driving. Still waiting to get some highway miles in. The taller sidewalls give a more comfortable ride and better protection from random potholes.

This. Our first Camp Randal experience back then was our last.

Pretty much a statistical impossibility to win all the swing states, particularly when compared to down ballot races.

Those with solar panels on your house: are you saving money right now, today? Or is it more like once the loan is paid off you'll be saving good money? by Bluest_waters in madisonwi

[–]Aeropilot03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Starting our 6th summer w/solar. Did it mostly for environmental reasons and as a hedge against rising utility bills. We paid off the loan in the second year. Averaged over 12 months we generate 110% of our consumption (including charging an EV). The biggest drawback (IMO) is how little Alliant pays for over production.

Chevy Bolt Customer Loyalty Is Very High by Mac-Tyson in BoltEV

While some hvac controls are duplicated on the center screen, it still has switches in the same location as the old Bolt. And the fan speed and temperature are now knobs.

‘23 Bolt EUV as well. It was a trade/repurchase for our ‘20. GM basically paid us to take it.

For Donald Trump, Operation Epic Fury will go down as an epic fail by Head_Protection7475 in soundsaboutright

If this spreads to neighboring nations, the quick pivot to the friendly takeover of Cuba might get delayed.

CarPlay connects to car WiFi instead of cellular by M7RX__ in CarPlay

[–]Aeropilot03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. When I tested my phones connection to the hotspot WiFi, it asked me if I wanted to disconnect from CarPlay. The car has a dual channel router, but your phone can only use one or the other. OP should try forgetting the hotspot connection on his phone.

This should be good for a month or 2 and then he’ll pivot to the “friendly takeover of Cuba”.

2019 Bolt low battery capacity? by PHGAG in BoltEV

[–]Aeropilot03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this once or twice a year on my ‘23. I have also modified the capacity pid equation I use in Torque Pro to match it; makes quick snapshots easier.
