    Cold Weather and Battery Warming System

    Hello guys, we're heading into a cold snap and was wondering how our imiev uses the a/c system to keep the batteries warm? Has anyone witnessed this in action ... does it run the a/c just to get current flowing through the battery pack which in turn warms the batteries? I also searched the...

    Chirping Noise while Driving

    Hello forum friends, has anyone experienced this while driving their IMIEV? Note: this noise happens with the a/c on or off at highway speeds, and never happens when accelerating, deceleration and or at city speeds. When I'm cruising at highway speeds I get this chirping noise from the car. I...

    Jack Points Revisited

    There's no mention in the Canadian car manual as to jack points. A forum search mentions that the jack point are located just behind the front and in front of the rear wheels? So the jack points are basically the rail cutouts when lifting the car at the garage? Can I lift each corner / wheel...

    Tesla Model 3 - No Free Supercharging - Option only

    It seems that there's going to be no free supercharging with Tesla model 3. Though no price was mentioned I'm thinking that it will be a 3 to 5K option to be taken when buying the car new (life time charging)...

    Battery Cell Voltage when Charging to 100%

    Hello fellow iMiEV owners, can someone please confirm if our batteries go beyond the 4.0 volts per cell ( when charging to full at 100%)? I think I read a past thread saying that we have a small safety margin built into the charging protocol that avoid stressing the batteries when going to...

    Winter Weather (things that can happen to our iMiEV's)

    We had a lot of freezing rain yesterday which caused an unexpected situation. I couldn't open the hood to add washer fluid. One if the benefits of owing an iMiEV which has no traditional hood is that the snow and freezing rain generally doesn't collect on the front windscreen. So the freezing...

    Locking Doors & Horn Beep

    Hello And Happy Holiday. Strange behaviour with our new 2016 iMiEV that we're trying to understand. Under what circumstance, when locking the doors, the horn "would" or "would not" beep? Should it not just beep and flash all the time? This is what we get: 1) 50% of the time are little I...

    Custom J1772 Cover

    Hello fellow iMiEV owners, I did a quick video showing how I installed a neoprene cover to my J1772 plug. I initially bought a plastic pistol type holder, but I didn't feel like drilling the concrete wall to install it, so I purchase a simple neoprene cover and installed it to my J1772 plug...

    Hello all, stumbled upon this yesterday. Not very flattering to say the least. I would categorize this review as a classic misinformation piece, a the expense of a great little car. But despite of all these negative review our little family is super happy with the addition of a new super...
