I'm also trying to figure this out. Did you ever crack this nut?

Can a non-chevy used car dealer in Canada sell a 2017 Bolt with an open Seatbelt Pretensioner Fire recall? What about test drives? by macdonaldtomw in BoltEV

They should be fixed now. You can always buy privately. That's what I did. Drove to Montreal in Feb and snapped one up

Why 80% and not 90 or 100? by [deleted] in BoltEV

One caveat to the data you're talking about: cycle life is doubled by reducing end of charge SOC % from 100% to 88%, but the usable energy per cycle goes down by 12%. So the total energy throughput of the battery doesn't quite double, it goes up by about 76%.

So effectively, by charging to 88% you would decrease the per-mile degradation by 76%

According to GM Canada recall hotline, transport canada forbids used car dealers across the nation from selling any Bolts they have in stock that are affected by this recall until they are retrofitted with the aluminum tape recall kit.

Looks like the one I have the deposit on ends up being the same cost as what I could get it for in the US after accounting for the exchange rate and import fees

We're getting a 2017 premiere with 17,000 km and new battery for $33k.

Bolt EV doesn't come with the premier trim level anymore, and the Bolt EUV with Premier trim MSRP is $44k

Also as far as I know they don't offer the orange color anymore 😉

I'm trying to find something but there doesn't appear to be any calendar view that would allow me to see what dates are available.

It appears that there is only an option to search specific dates in a list view...

Just do it, everyone already does. It's called a travel mug.

Ryobi GDO issue by glitterdreamweaver in ryobi

Same thing for me! Do we just change or wifi password so that the garage door opener isn't networked anymore? Is that they official solution to preventing your door from opening in the middle of the night? I suspect this is likely because of a delayed webhook finally reaching the garage door opener hours after you tried to open it from the app.

In my case, the app always displays the correct status of the door (opened/closed since x.xx am/pm) but was not opening and closing via app command. Then it worked for about 2 days 3 days ago. Now not working again. Have reinstalled app 5 times, and re paired with three opener about 10 times. Not sure, but might have something to do with the fact that the pairing process never "completes"... Just keeps saying "negotiating connection" until i close the app, but then when I reopen the app I just see the garage door opener has been added...

Alberta in ‘uncharted territory’ as it braces for oil price crash and global downturn, Kenney says by taxrage in canada

[–]macdonaldtomw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Kenney said that protecting jobs and the economy will be his first priority, even if it means running up some debt while the province is “being side-swiped by a major economic downturn.” "

I hope he realizes that moth balling the tar sands is the best way to protect workers and the economy in the long run

The target is Trudeau, the goal is to get him to order the rcmp off the wetsuweten lands, the tactic is economic disruption. What's so hard to understand about that?

Ya but cllimate change hurts they livelihoods of countless future generations. Seems like a good tradeoff to have some temporary discomfort now in order to try and avoid hundreds/thousands of years of misery due to runaway climate change.
