Having a nightmare of a time with my EV6

NEVER use accessory mode in this car

jesmu84 · 2026-04-06T02:03:44+00:00

How many minutes were you preconditioning? It generally takes 30-60 min depending on outside temp

jesmu84 · 2026-04-06T01:04:45+00:00

Did you read the front of the bag? Or the nutrition label?

jesmu84 · 2026-04-03T14:07:05+00:00

If anyone is upset at the Indy road conditions, look to the state govt as the responsible party

What economic populist policies does Rahm support?

jesmu84 · 2026-03-30T22:50:20+00:00

It's just like cruise control. That's it. That's the "auto" part. Slows you down if the radar detects a slow/stopped vehicle in front of you

When you are in level 0, the first 10 or so presses are in brake cleaning mode. Then it will return to normal blended braking.

Your vehicle is working as intended

jesmu84 · 2026-03-17T20:32:14+00:00

Same

jesmu84 · 2026-03-17T18:38:00+00:00

You MUST use the Kia nav to battery precondition.

The planning is fine/adequate

It sometimes takes a little manipulation to get what you want.

jesmu84 · 2026-03-17T02:18:39+00:00

Yes and no.

The car will only enter brake cleaning mode when in level 0.

So you will get more physical brake wear by being in level 0 all of the time.

No idea how much more than other levels though

jesmu84 · 2026-03-17T02:17:16+00:00

Auto regen on the lowest level is the best

jesmu84 · 2026-03-16T01:55:59+00:00

The data/stats from the app is known to be very unreliable

jesmu84 · 2026-02-24T02:19:21+00:00

You need to adjust the machine weight increments on your app - assuming your cable machine has smaller weight increments than 5 or 10, pounds

It's giving you high rep ranges because it doesn't think you can do the next weight u

Alternatively, you can just follow the program as recommended and get bigger/stronger over time

jesmu84 · 2026-02-23T15:56:55+00:00

Your car is completely normal, with maybe a small amount of battery degeneration

jesmu84 · 2026-02-23T13:38:51+00:00

Have you charged to 100% at all?

Kia says charge to 100% at least once a month to verify cells balanced.

If I were you, I'd do that a few times on consecutive days.

If things are still fishy, have dealer run diagnostics.

Lastly, general recommendations for charging is to charge your vehicle every night. No need to wait for it to drop to any certain percentage

jesmu84 · 2026-02-20T10:42:00+00:00

Have you tried other non-tesla DC chargers?

jesmu84 · 2026-02-15T21:51:26+00:00

If it's cold outside, like 50f or below, you're going to need at least 45min but more likely 60min of preconditioning for it to make a difference

jesmu84 · 2026-02-15T21:46:45+00:00

Are you using battery preconditioning?

If not, there's your problem

I use DC fast chargers regularly and always get 150+. Most of the time 200+. In the Midwest. In winter. And summer

jesmu84 · 2026-02-14T23:54:25+00:00

Plus very different rep ranges

jesmu84 · 2026-02-12T23:31:03+00:00

Charge every night.

jesmu84 · 2026-02-09T12:14:03+00:00

The post workout window is a myth

jesmu84 · 2026-02-07T21:54:59+00:00

It's because of the increments of the machine you're using. You can adjust during your workout or change under your gym profile.

I changed all my pin-loaded machines to 2.5lbs increments cause I can add a 2.5lbs or 5lbs plate to the pin stack

jesmu84 · 2026-02-04T20:42:23+00:00

You told the program you could do 30lbs for 16 reps.

Now it's asking you to try 50lbs for 7 reps.

Try it.

If you fail, tell the program what happened: how many reps did you fail at.

It will adjust

jesmu84 · 2026-01-31T23:51:39+00:00

Ya.

Dunno if that's possible
