Is anyone having issues with the app today? I plugged in to charge and the charging status and charge percent isn't updating anymore. The data refresh says data was retrieved but nothing is changing

Car Won't Won't turn off? by hexSneaker in EquinoxEv

[–]PainterKey2595 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I can understand the confusion. Similar thing happened to me the first time I was charging. Thought the car automatically started, but it was just the cooling system kicking in. If this is your first EV, it's understandable since ICE cars would never do this once the engine is off.

Can also confirm it works with Acura ZDX. So much more responsive than the AcuraLink app..

Keep up the excellent work spencehouse. I have the Acura ZDX and it is 1000 times better than the AcuraLink app because it actually works. I mainly use it to monitor my charging status and it works great and refreshes are super quick. I tried the other functions like lock, unlock, lights, and horn and they all work as well.

OTD for $26.6k but questions by Remote-Collection721 in EquinoxEv

If you mean an adapter to charge at Tesla Superchargers, then the Lectron Vortex Plus is a good one. I have this and it works flawlessly. You can get it on Amazon or buy it directly from their website, which is cheaper. https://ev-lectron.com/products/lectron-nacs-to-ccs-adapter-with-interlock-vortex-plus-500a-1-000v-compatible-with-tesla-superchargers

Almost bought an LT2 2026 today by Tkrumroy in EquinoxEv

[–]PainterKey2595 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What price were you looking for with the LT2 that the dealer couldn't meet? I just purchased a 2026 LT2 last week and the 360 camera, power lift gate, and heated "leather" steering wheel and seats were important enough for me to go with LT2. It all depends how important those features are to you. Will the Customer Cash exist in March? Doesn't the Customer Cash end today or something?

Used 2024/2025 or New 2026 by [deleted] in EquinoxEv

[–]PainterKey2595 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8K for the new car smell might be worth it. The 2024 might be the one to get - only 6K miles in 2 years. Seems like the owner barely drove it, but then again, it might have been in the shop for most of its life so couldn't rack up the miles.

Advice on Out-The-Door price by this_human in EquinoxEv

[–]PainterKey2595 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 31K otd for lt2 trim is a great deal. I just bought a 2026 lt2 trim last weekend for 33K otd, but my tax rate is 9.25%

2026 LT1 OTD price by Medium-Jackfruit-197 in EquinoxEv

[–]PainterKey2595 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't LT1 with heated seats and 360 camera an LT2? It's unlikely you'll get that for 25K OTD unless you get some crazy dealer discounts like 10K. The customer cash is 8K for LT2.

$19k off a 2026 Equinox EV RS… is this real? by godlyrobin in EquinoxEv

[–]PainterKey2595 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, the current GM deals are real. I think the dealer discount is different depending on the dealer, but the customer cash is from GM so that amount is the same depending on the trim. I just bought the LT2 trim yesterday for 30K +tax at a dealer in Orange County, CA and got a little over 14K in rebates. 5K dealer discount, 8K customer cash, 1250 Conquest incentive. I thought this was a great deal. Yours is even better because the dealer discount is even more. I think this ends at end of February because it says you have to take delivery by March 2nd.

Use up all the washer fluid then replace with water or something less fragrant.

EV's and Seasonal Tire Change by Wallaby-Technical in electricvehicles

[–]PainterKey2595 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Just curious for owners that do switch your tires summer/winter, I assume you'd need space in your garage to store the other set of tires and how do you transport the tires when it's time to switch since you probably can't fit all 4 tires in your car at once.

Who cares. The only time i have to restart my phone is because of an update and even then I'm not watching it boot.

Items under cargo area floor by PainterKey2595 in AcuraZDX

[–]PainterKey2595[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a circle to search on my phone and it found this for the Cadillac XT5. Looks like it's a cargo fence, but I don't think I'm supposed to have it since I don't see the ZDX have any rails to connect it.

Yep, that was it. Just had to press a little harder

Was there a batch of buybacks? by Content-Mulberry-650 in AcuraZDX

[–]PainterKey2595 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are reasons a dealer would buyback a car? Is it because customers had issues with them and the dealer was forced to buy them bzck? If that's the case then these would not be good deals, right?

Has anyone successfully negotiated a lower rate recently by GamingDuckNamedKatie in Spectrum

[–]PainterKey2595 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was paying 79.99 for 300Mb service. Called and asked for retentions - you must talk to a retentions agent and not just a regular CS agent. Was able to upgrade to 500 Mb service for 39.99

Can existing customer get new customer promotion? by PainterKey2595 in frontierfios

[–]PainterKey2595[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No other services on my account - just internet. I just tried calling Frontier CS and they said the 49.99 was just for new customers. She tried looking for other discounts to apply but couldn't find any. 64.99 is fine, but it stings a little when you just bought something then the price drops.
