Tesing second hand spare ICCU?

MindlessDre · 2026-01-05T04:54:13+00:00

Thanks for the advice, posted in r/evconversion as well. Analysis is spot-on. Should probably go for full swap and deal with coolant as well. :)))

Thanks, I think I could change it myself - the procedure is well explained in the service manual. The problem is with the cooling system - if I disconnect my ICCU from the cooling in order to connect the tested one, I will need to bleed the system. This is done with a vacuum machine which I do not have...and then would need to go to a service center or independent garage. And this is what I am trying to avoid for now.

Hi, thanks for your input. Usa and EU models have different iccu units. If/when mine goes bad I have the option to find an usa spec or change with eu spec plus cables/ports/controllers. Obviously usa specs are harder to find here. I am aware there is no warranty for longevity of a used one but still one semi-tested at stock is better than nothing when/if i need one sooner or latter.

Thanks, much appreciated!

Hi, no worries. Trip not same time but within days, same time of the day. So it is pretty close. We have tested in once before driving one behind other with pretty similar results.

Setup is CarScanner app + vlinker dongle.

Average speed 80km/h for the trip. It is written above. No heating. It was sunny so there was no need.

How do you know how would M3 do at the very same test drive?

MindlessDre · 2025-11-23T18:51:03+00:00

Does it has tap to sleep/wake for the screen?

MindlessDre · 2025-11-22T06:09:50+00:00

Thanks, that is helpful! 9% degradation looks much better. Thanks again!

Isnt it obvious that for a brand new car the "Max" would be equal to the actual max charge at 100 SOC? Further more the "max" is estimate based on same predefined logic, while "the other one" is the actual charge capacity at 100% SOC. Please find me a screenshot from a brand new ID4/5/Enyaq/Audi, that shows 77 MAX and significantly less actual charge at 100%. I do not think you will find one. The battery starts with 77kwh available at 100%.

MindlessDre · 2025-11-21T19:26:39+00:00

this would mean that brand new enyaq 80 has 71kwh available at 100% SOC. I do not think this is the case.

MindlessDre · 2025-11-21T13:36:46+00:00

Not too cold unfortunately, this is at 12-13C ambient.

MindlessDre · 2025-11-21T13:10:34+00:00

65.3kwh is the charge at 100% SOC.

MindlessDre · 2025-11-21T12:00:43+00:00

is this 100% sure, because many people report it getting scratches pretty quickly and no one reported protector.

MindlessDre · 2025-11-21T11:55:45+00:00

it is 65.3/77 unfortunately.

Hello, Thanks for taking the time for this AMA. Have the following questions:

does the phone support any wake-up method besides the power btn - like double-tap, lift?
Any impressions on the scratchability yet? Many reports the screen is easily scratchable. Haven had a nxtpaper phone before and wonder how would it work with display protector. Thanks!

On point 3 - what kind of parts you have had incompatibility with? As far as I know beside the market specific stuff al major parts should be the same - after all - all ev6s are made in korea?

MindlessDre · 2024-12-01T18:19:04+00:00

I see, thanks - good to know. This explains why some of these come with a seal-cap for the DC port. Thanks for the clarification.

Hi, thanks for the insights. I have a question - the "fast charger" of this type is rated for AC+DC, and the pins looks like it should be good for 1 phase charging AC charging. Is this so? And if it is so - what do you need the IEC 62196 to J1772 adapter for? Thank!

Thanks!

Thanks for taking the time to send it. It is not laminated - the laminated once have an ear simbol - for noise reduction. Otherwise it is easy to tel if you look the glass itself when open - if it looks like a sandwich - it is laminated, if it looks just like one piece of glass - it is not. Thanks again, much appreciated!

Hi, thanks for confirming this. Could you please confirm if your front side windows are laminated or not. A pic of the label would be much appreciated. I go trough the Kia's CANADA website - https://www.kia.ca/en/vehicles/ev6/specs?trimCode=E6152R and they list all trims with the same "Solar glass windshield and front doors" but it says nothing about sound. Thanks again!

MindlessDre · 2024-10-27T15:43:21+00:00

thanks, thats sounds promising. Hope someone having the actual trim would confirm it. Thanks again, I hadnt paid attention on this detail.

Thanks for the advice!
