In the instructions to install the screen update it said to put on my seat belt. I sat in the car for 20 minutes.watching it update afraid to move. By the time the maps update was ready I lost the will to live. Can anyone advise please if I have to sit in the car with the engine on for nearly an hour while the maps update or can I leave the engine on (Electric e308) lock the car and go back when it is done?
lol I left the car, tried to lock it but you can’t lock the car with a key fob left in it. I was in France, car wouldn’t lock with remote or key. My partner had left her bag on back seat with spare key in it. Took ages to figure that out lol.
How long did it take you to download the maps update to your computer. I'm using an apple macbook air via my 35mbps broad band and its taking forever. 90 mins so far.
I remember it’s very slow. I have similar broadband speed, more than 30 minutes, less than 1 hour from memory. I see another map update came out a few days ago.
Terrible lol. They, Peugeot, say it’s 218 miles. But that is to run it flat from new. No one should run a car flat or empty a tank of petrol / diesel on a journey. My car is new to me but 2 years old. I get approximately 190 miles on the gauge after every fast charge. I believe a slow charge would be better. I was stopping when the gauge got to between 50 & 80 kilometres left in the tank. 30 to 50 miles. I set the gauges to km so that I could adhere to EU speed limits. Stopping every couple of hours for a 40 minute fast charge. Leaving up to 50 miles in reserve, I figure I was getting about 110 miles driving mostly at 105 kph. 65 miles per hour. I did try the max speed which is fixed at 152 kph / 94 mph for a few minutes when the autobahn allowed. I could watch the range plummet. Not knowing the distance to every single charger, I could not afford to let the vehicle go flat in a foreign country. I therefore say the actual range is more like 120 miles in a foreign place. That foreign place could be 50 miles from home. By the time I got off the ferry at Dover, the tank was down to 12 miles. Fortunately there are 2 chargers just a few minutes from Dover ferry port. The car charges to 88% in 10 odd minutes, the last 12% slows down to 20 odd minutes. I will be doing a video on the actual cost of electric vs my old 1.6 HDi that got me to Paris on one tank. My video editing tool is broken so had to trial a new tool today.
Mine fails update every time so can’t do it. Brand new usb stick also tried old type and new type nothing works. Garage had the car for 4hrs when I picked it up it still wasn’t done.
@@JohnB-2021still under warranty. Garage not interested I’m afraid lovely car flawed app flawed software. If you want things to function correctly buy a tesla you can even watch Netflix while it’s charging. Or surf internet

Latest software took 1 hour 8 minutes to download.
What was the range on a charge, is it what is claimed?

@@BikerMichael Does your car still have warranty?
What did the mechanic at the Peugeot dealer suggest?
