I need one of the 15 x4” front alloys to replace a hub-bent rim that’s too far gone to repair. Bonus if it still has good rubber! Plz PM Thx, Jay

With front Enasaves now going for $221 each (and the fronts last half as long as the rears). I’m seeing the Haida Vogue HD628 in 155/60-15, which is only 0.4% less circumference than stock, with 10 mm added width. They have a highway rib tread similar to the Enasaves, but no LRR claims. Anyone...

Tire Rack is listing some apparently correctly-sized alloys that look similar to the ones Nevin found. $165 apiece, the Radius W061...

I’ve been running winter tires in the MiEV for over a decade. My graveyard-shift working wife has beaten the snowplow home many times, and I love beating those silly Subarus with wide summer tires up our seldom-icy hills. It’ll out-climb FWD cars with traction tires too. 6” of fresh snow is...

There's a black 2012 ES with 74k miles in Chicago currently asking $1900. I've done the research and spoken with the seller already, so let me know if you're local and ready to go grab it. Shipping to Seattle doesn't really justify...

Here’s a neat peek at all the baubles for these babies back at their home. https://manualzz.com/doc/4993035/%E7%94%A8%E5%93%81i-imiev-09-06-

https://insideevs.com/news/613132/tata-motors-tiago-affordable-ev-launched/ A subcompact 4 door hatchback with 19 or 24 kWH packs, 45 or 55 kW of power, $10k or $15k approx price. But not for the USA, no doubt!

For the 2012 “doghouse charger” I’m pretty sure that’s a definite no, I have swapped three of them with no issues.

Of course Mitsubishi bungled the marketing of I-MiEV and blew the potential of Outlander PHEV in the US market, but at least the vehicle reliability and durability has been superb. Other corporations with lesser designs are compounding their shortcomings with poor handling of warranty and...

Good job PV1, but since your average road speed was only 37 mph, I think the efficiency number is realistic.

Good on ya dopey, for buying the longest-lasting affordable EV. Here's a couple of additional details and clarifications. No LEAF has EVer had any kind of a cooling system, including the current 62 kWH battery. I've dissected all of them. Even the claims of passive cooling are malarkey, as...

Outstanding! I’d appreciate more on how you got it to run without SRS. My crashed parts car stopped restarting after I disconnected the instrument cluster and didn’t respond to reinstallation. It’s been stuck since… only item that can’t be reinstalled is the power steering rack (sold it). I’d...

So I got a call back from Mitsu Corporate. Said that the rep was in error to "open a case" for me, and that battery pricing is between the customer and a dealer, with no place for corporate involvement. I told 'em that $15k for a 16 kWh battery in 2022 was BS, that this was a de-facto refusal...

It took two calls in two hours and one disconnection after being placed back on hold by a human and no callback, but I've finally got a case opened with Mitsu Corporate to try and get a statement about non-warranty battery replacements. Their pack pricing of $15k no longer passes any semblance...

Excellent photos, thank you! Yes, he's got one stone-dead cell at 0.45V while the others appear healthy. This is the most common failure mode that triggers a pack replacement under warranty in the USA. I would think it worthwhile to swap cells around on the same BMU and watch the results if...

Thanks for this good thread with some newer members! It's a reminder to me to go lubricate MR BEAN's gearbox lever, but I'd like to mention that I've seen physical resistance to inserting a J1772 handle on some vehicles such that EVen if the latch snaps down, insertion is incomplete and...

:lol: Well Dr. Sheep, if she's a good wife she probably proclaimed it your fault and made you feel sheepish about not cleaning out your pockets! My parts car didn't come with a remote, but if you do find a replacement, the reprogramming procedure posted here should work, it just may take a few...

I finally watched this video. They called the i-MiEV the "Most Cultiest" of the affordable EVs. Must've read our forum!!! ;)

Thought I had replied before but don’t see it- I have a good brown rear seat, with both backs and headrests, send an offer for all or part.

Hi Electroman. I have a couple of spare packs, one of which is open and easy to extract modules or cells with about 76% SOH. Where are you located?
