Common owner-reported themes
Not diagnostic advice — themes owners often document in service history. Always verify for your exact engine and year.
High-voltage coolant and 12V battery
MEB cars still need coolant in the battery/inverter loop and a healthy 12V battery. Log both — a flat 12V looks like a “dead EV”.
12V battery and 12V drain
EVs still die from a flat 12V. Log battery brand, date and any 12V software updates.
Charging and software campaigns
Charge-port faults, heat-pump software and OTA campaigns belong in the history with dates.
