A/C issues need advice

So after about 7 visits to different dealers, no one can diagnose a gremlin that causes my a/c to come on when the car is parked. Plugged in/not plugged in locked or unlocked. When I hear it on the garage, I can open the door and the a/c light is on and I can press it and it goes off. This is withou...

Re: Level2 Charging Grief

Thanks for advice. I was able to buy a smart breaker and integrate it will Alexa using a server I have. I get home plug it in and press the button to charge immediately and then look at the time to 100% on the display, and then tell Alexa to power off the breaker in ~15 to 20 minutes before that tim...

Re: Level2 Charging Grief

Level2 Charging Grief

For 2 years I have been charging the e-golf with a JuiceBox Pro 40 and 2 weeks ago, the e-golf only showed a solid amber upper light, which says handle is plugged in, but there is no charge present. I had JuiceBox support check the charger and said everything was fine. So I bought a new Level2 charg...

Re: Transmission B Mode and Brake Lights on deceleration

As far as downshifting, a Porsche mechanic friend (who also raced Porsches at the time) told me back in the 1980s that brakes are a lot cheaper to replace than clutches and driveline parts. Thanks, my only manual car is 56 Mercedes. I downshift because the brakes are shoes.... Thanks for the tip on...

Transmission B Mode and Brake Lights on deceleration

Does anyone know how to disable this ? Brake lights don't come on when I downshift in my other cars, I don't like it.
Thanks
