Screens freeze and the range readout jumps on the XEV 9e, 6,000 km in
XEV 9e Pack Three, 6,000 km, home charging on a 7.2 kW wall box.
The car itself has been good. The battery and the way it drives have given me nothing to complain about. The software is where my problems are, and I want to know how much of this is my car and how much is everyone.
What I see
- Roughly once a fortnight one of the three screens goes black or freezes on a cold start. A long press on the power button brings it back. Never happens twice in a day.
- The range number moves a lot in the first ten minutes of a drive. It has dropped 30 km and then given it back once the car settles.
- Regen feels different between drives at the same setting. Some mornings the car slows noticeably harder the moment I lift off.
- Two over the air updates so far. The second one fixed a wireless phone connection drop I had been living with.
Charging has been straightforward. Home charging overnight is predictable and the two DC sessions I have done both held a sensible rate to 80 percent.
So, other 9e owners
- Are you seeing the same screen freeze, and did an update fix it for you
- Does your range readout settle down after the first few minutes as well
- Has anyone had a service centre actually log any of this, or do they just update and send you home
Not a complaint post. The car is good and I want to know what is normal for it this early.
