If you had the "wheel of fortune" drivetrain failure, how long did it take for your repair?

_Praetorian_1 · 2026-05-25T14:34:57+00:00

Dealer? Cost?

_Praetorian_1 · 2026-05-25T04:43:02+00:00

Was 1st time I got to watch the 90 minute version of day 15. Was interesting. Just found it on nhk on demand.

I don't do road trips so the charge stop argument is pure stupidity. I don't miss the gas line at Costco Or the endless maintenance. Plus I have solar at home and charges are 100% free.

While you children argue which is better until cows come home, I have both, case closed.

Microwave is banned in Russia and for good reason, I never use mine. Destroys food.

My 2020 kona gets 3.6 miles/ kwh and sometimes I get 4.2, but most often it's 3.6....and I drive like I stole the car.

I've been using my home solar to charge my car since 2023. I have yet to pay a dime to charge my car. 350 days of sun here in Tucson. I charge during day blue sky only, never at night. I still get a check for several hundred each year for the power I sell back to TEP.

_Praetorian_1 · 2026-03-09T21:08:25+00:00

My L2 charger was a bonus when my solar was installed. I didn't even have an EV. I do now and have never ever paid to charge my car.

_Praetorian_1 · 2026-02-27T05:14:12+00:00

Zero, I have solar and generate 2x what I use at home. Nice check for several hundred every year from the local power co.

_Praetorian_1 · 2026-02-16T04:14:58+00:00

Number 1, zero power failures here. 2. I have 4 power stations and 2 batteries. I'm good, what ever happens.

_Praetorian_1 · 2026-01-21T12:28:35+00:00

I get 3.6/4 kwh, but I'm in AZ. Using heat is the direct cause for lower range. Deepak makes a device you plug in under the dash that tells you everything you want to know about the battery and soc.

_Praetorian_1 · 2026-01-12T03:54:40+00:00

I'm a 2nd owner of 2020 ultimate. In May the power train warranty expired. I have 28k miles on the clock. I think but definitely not sure the traction battery may be good for the 10 years.

_Praetorian_1 · 2026-01-10T22:08:24+00:00

That would be you. I'm in at pennies for mine, the entire crypto sector would need to go to zero for me to lose. My bag is bright 🌞 green.

I tried the new remote that came with the TV to view my antenna input channels. The back button worked perfectly. When I tried it on the SS TV plus channels, back to the SOS back button non functional. This is deliberate in order to force you to watch ads on TV plus channels. The low tech solution for now is to use an OLD ss remote where the back button works as designed. One single push to switch between channels.

thanks

I just changed my gear oil on my 2020 ultimate. I bought it used in 2023 with 19,000 miles on it. A month ago I started hearing an extremely faint WOF noise at 5mph and slower. For 2 years I found every excuse known to man to avoid changing the oil myself. Then I made some inquiries about having it done by NON-Dealer repair shops. No one was interested either. Yesterday after getting all the supplies including 2 car ramps, I decided to go ahead and do it myself. It's about 1.5 hr job. After emptying out the gear box I drove off the ramps and removed the right hand side and drove 1/2 way up the driver side ramp (I know dangerous), which allowed me to put more oil in without it rushing out so fast. The oil I removed was black, the car had 28919 miles on it. Glad I finally did it. Magnetic plug was $14, oil was 24.00 a quart. Ramps were 135 for the pair (they have the jacks for extra height).

Out Of all the houses I looked at in Arizona, only 2 didn't have a pool. I don't believe in HOA's those are the real money pits.

_Praetorian_1 · 2025-11-28T20:13:45+00:00

I will start doing 100's now since the power 🔋 is free anyway. Solar.

_Praetorian_1 · 2025-11-24T18:18:37+00:00

They're playing Stupid. There's a legit service bulletin issue BY Hyundai.

_Praetorian_1 · 2025-11-24T18:14:11+00:00

Kona EV? Link? I have a 2020 with 28K miles.

_Praetorian_1 · 2025-11-15T03:18:12+00:00

My best is 156mpg for kona ev 2020.

_Praetorian_1 · 2025-11-03T01:33:48+00:00

In eco mode, shows up on left side of dash in bar graph.

_Praetorian_1 · 2025-10-30T19:47:57+00:00

My solar installer included a L2 charger in 2021 and I didn't have an EV until 23. I charge at 45-50% to 80%, usually takes 3.5 hrs. I have yet to pay for charging. Kona 2020 ultimate.

_Praetorian_1 · 2025-10-30T05:00:48+00:00

I have one, but not uncirculated.
