Hmmm I'll take it in a couple of long journeys and see if things improve.

Yer it's been into the dealer and they just said they'd updated the ECU and it should help.
Still doing it though, and the regeneration seems to maybe happen more often than it should and affect cons... |

Post: RE: Service Indicator Reset

If anyone knows how to do it please share the information :) as I performed the service myself (very basic stuff overpriced at the dealer) |

Screw that it was £17.99 vs. £100 haha!
It's not a major inconvenience it's just a bit odd that the rear sensors are disabled, wondered if you could manually turn them back on |

Post: RE: Very Poor Economy

Cheers for the info |
