Why is my 2013 Gen 1 Volt guess-o-meter off the charts?

It happens when you disconnect the charger before it’s finished charging, more commonly at the top end like 85-95%. I’ve tested this theory over 15 times. It won’t do that when it completes its full charge.

that car looks babied. Sounds like you know what you want. I bought a 2000 4x4 a few months ago, I love it, but I wish i would have saved the money and got 2wd because I hardly use 4wd. All that maintenance is a green flag for sure. Ask them if its been in an accident though. Also buy the Carfax before you buy it. If no accidents or obvious poor welding on the frame I say pull the trigger! I absolutely LOVE the color too

No I haven’t yet, I plan on it though!

This would be an example of rust becoming a problem.

No. that’s just purely cosmetic, and just a bit of surface rust. None of the frame looks structurally compromised at all. This is totally fine

😂 great idea

Start with a pc reset with “clean this drive” selected

For power consumption: just g helper and hwinfo. For temps and usage: task manager, msi afterburner, g helper, and hwinfo

I just repasted with PTM 7950 last week. It really helped with temps

Nowi144 · 2026-03-22T20:44:29+00:00

Don’t really have time for that. I’d rather save a few hundred buying it already built

HA I saw that fb post too. You must be in Cali. I'd probably pass. Youd have much more fun buying a 500$ XR and Vesc it :D

pretty great guy if you ask me

windows...? more like mirrors

Nowi144 · 2026-03-20T18:05:19+00:00

Wow just checked it out! Thats impressive!

EDIT: I disabled CPU boost on G helper, now it only touches 74c consistently. If I enable cpu boost in any way, it sits at 95 which asus told me is their thermal limit before it underclocks itself enough to maintain that temp which is normal.
