    Main hv battery is used for heating etc, and i belive that can be proved with preheat. Battery needs a minimum charge for preheat to be available, in addition running preheat on a cold day for 15 mins reduces the battery by approx 33% if not pluged in (which has been documented on here). As we...

    Help - Seatbelt stuck

    I had the same only way to free it is to get slack on the belt, if you have a large torx bit t 50 / t45 I think it is possibly to release the seat base and undo the bolt holding the belt (also secures the middle belt socket ) but need to be careful as there the wires for the belt use detection...

    Need to enable Bluetooth tethering (under hotspot settings) then connect via Bluetooth I also had to set as trusted Bluetooth devive as would not connect when phone was locked. I believe the MB hotspot just shares the phones data connection so connecting to it from your phone will not work
