Since having the campaign update, I have noticed something weird…
For the avoidance of doubt, I only charge to 85% and my car has done 3000 miles.
It seems that sometimes, regen braking is disabled and only the mechanical brakes work.
This has only started happening since the update. I can’t put my finger (hoof) exactly on the preconditions, but it seems to be initially on a first drive of the day.
After a while the regen braking kicks in and everything is back to normal. Further drives during the day proceed as normal.
Interestingly, engaging cruise control forces regen braking to work, but switching back to manual disables it again. But after a while it turns back on.
Is this some new feature to ensure the mechanical brakes get some use and don’t seize up and waste away?
Ironically, InnoDrive disengaged today saying manual take over was necessary and then when I pushed the brakes I only got mechanical. But putting cruise control immediately back on and everything returned to normal.
Has anyone else had obscure periods where regen braking was unavailable?
