Problems with flashing "D" symbol

[glocklesnar]

Hello
I currently own an imiev that has done about 90000 km. The problem im facing is that the car intermittently starts flashing the drive icon and wont accelerate above 50 km/h. This doesn't happen all the time but it maybe half the times i use the car. It otherwise charges fine. I uave tried spraying the gear linkage with some grease but that doesnt solve the issue. Range is also unaffected. Anybody know what the problem might be?

Hello and welcome to the forum

Which of the dash lights below do you refer to as "drive icon", I recon one below the tortoise (traction control)?

OK, if greasing the link didn't solve the issue, you may need to dig deeper, see similar issues discussed below:

Have you tried the B and C positions ?
I run my UK I-MIEV in C all the time, least Regen setting.
(Wish it had a zero Regen setting so that coasting is more easily available)
