but I've used white diesel so far anyway as I don't get through much!
You're correct about the stated aim, but there aren't any viable alternatives (for his firm and most others) so it just increases HMRC's take and adds to the cost of jobs. Another example of the lack of joined-up thinking that characterises so many of the "green" initiatives.
Just been quoted £298 inc vat for my first EQC400 service.
Remote is very sensitive, at times the hatch unlocks itself. Another thing that happens frequently is while cleaning it, the hatch unlocks. For these reasons I have to keep the keys away while washing, and I'm storing the keys in a large wallet to avoid activating the tail open function.
What is included in your service? Please ask the dealer if the motor requires any sort of lubricant now or down the line after 50K to 100K KM.
Not had this problem with the EQC but strangely enough did have with my E Class Estate, I think its mainly down to how you store your keys tight jeans etc can press buttons.

In case anyone needed another reason to avoid skinny jeans
Thank you Boris. Even your list does not include anything regarding the motor lubrication. For me the battery cells are checked as well, and guaranteed to be replaced under the long term warranty as packs if required.
That will make things difficult.
Yours might need looking at I've had no problems at all and find the under bumper sensor exactly the opposite I can never find the damn thing

5p!!......you have not looked at you bill for a while I think. The official UK average as of April 2022 will be 28p per kwh! Last year it was 17p....still way over 5p.
Not with Octopus, I'm on a fixed contract until March next year, and I pay 5p inc vat between 00.30 hours and 04.30 hours. Which is when I charge my car, however I'm moving house on 1st April and thought I'd be able to take my contract with me I cant, I think it goes up to £0.8p over night on my new contract.
My standing charge is higher and the basic rate is higher on the new contract, but no higher than other people I've spoken to locally about it, So I'm not being hung out to dry for having a cheap overnight rate, but on saying that the car will be a big energy user compared with the rest of the house.
