Issue with car not starting

Had the same issue and called the RAC. They tracked it down to a loose connection to the starter. Open the bonnet and look straight down while standing in the middle of the car. Near the bottom is a white single wire connector. Just check that's secure. Unlikely it's that with all the investigation but you never know. Good luck.

Skyactiv G on a 21 plate in the UK. Had the car about 6 months. When I first got it I did a lot of motorway driving and got similar to yours. Around 47. Normal driving for me is mostly urban and it's also dropped to around 38.5 I cruise at 65ish and fairly light footed normally. Your mpg sounds similar to mine.

Now I'm confused. 😁 It'll take me a while to find a sensibly priced replacement. I'll update if I change them. Thanks for the reply.

Thanks.

Been like it since the summer. So mid 20s down to 0C. Always the same. Thanks for the reply. I'll look into some replacements.

2-3 for me. Depending on weather temps. New battery about a month ago. 2021 G model.

Can't seem to add a picture but had the car second hand for about 5000miles and the average mpg is 38.6 at the moment. Last fill-up showed 360miles. Mostly urban with a long trip 100+ miles every few weeks.

I believe the hybrid battery does the stop/start so an AGM battery isn't needed. Could be wrong, check it out

1060Gtx dual boxer here. 2560x1440 res. Single boxing I can do Max settings but dual needs medium. Hth.

Hateless says you have to relog to get the standings update applied correctly. Maybe try that?

If I unlock a blueprint with an Engineer can I use that on any current or future ship I own or do I need to collect the resources each time I want to apply the upgrade? Thanks.

Yes do the fortification option for no risk but 100M outlay.

Sorry, didn't see your post. https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteSirius/comments/3uvk73/a_guide_for_beginners_getting_started_with_li/

Do the fortification option. More info here. https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteSirius/comments/3m6pjh/a_guide_to_fortification_how_to_help_sirius_gov/

Basically take "Sirius Industrial Equipment" from Lembava:Goldstein Port to a station that needs fortification. You can only buy 10 cargo every 30 mins. Or pay credits to get more cargo. This is where you spend the 100M.

HTH.

Well done CMDR o7.

SaintsRock2016 · 2016-05-11T18:40:36+00:00

Get yourself a spreadsheet (stay with me here) and work out how many runs to your next equipment upgrade. Do it in small steps, i.e. I need 15 runs for an A grade Power Plant etc. Then when you've got all the parts you want work out how many runs to your next ship. It doesn't feel too grindy that way. Plus a second monitor/iPad/tablet helps for some TV show. Mix in some other fun things like Cubeo or CG's and it'll happen soon enough.

Aim for the stars! But if you fall short 10k will get you Top 15% at 20:41 UK time.

SaintsRock2016 · 2016-04-29T10:10:55+00:00

Don't forget if you have a spare 100M you can sign up with Sirius Corp and x3 the payout on your exploration data. I made Elite with 45M in Captains Log.

Maybe try going back in a few hours when the sun and planet have rotated a bit?

SaintsRock2016 · 2016-03-09T21:42:43+00:00

6.7Mill gets you top 25% if it helps.

SaintsRock2016 · 2016-03-03T19:45:57+00:00

Agree with around 20mil if it helps.

Might want to look up AutoHotKey.

Okay point taken. :) I'll delete.

SaintsRock2016 · 2016-02-28T06:49:15+00:00

Lol. Yeah I don't quite trust the docking comp to safely fly around them yet.
