Just had update on car but not included Zappi charging issue.

Yesterday the car told me it had an update.
Great I thought final after 7 months I'd get the charging fix Renault have identified and promised.
But no it was an update to fix electric motor failure.
Important no doubt but why wasn't the charging fix rolled out at the same time?
Not happy at all

Re: Randomly opening charge flap

I suspect the lock is working but the latch has failed. So when locked it's secure but when unlocked the latch isn't holding it.

Updated My Renault android app

Just notic e today that the Android Renault app has been updated. We've gained a find my vehicle button between the climate and charge start buttons.
The downside is the app seems to be miss reporting as it shows not charging but my Zappi confirms 1.4Kw going in.

No not after 5 months of use. Did have a stone chip that was repaired but otherwise good.

Sort of fix d this Seat sensor measures capacitance (the amount of water in the lump sitting on it) And from that judg s if it's an adult, child or car seat.

Re: Charging impossible

It seems there is a known issue with the Renault Megane charging making it not operate correctly with some chargers (notably the Myengeri Zappi but also some commercial service station chargers. Renault are aware and apparently a firmware update will follow. I'd raise this with the dealer (whom will...

As instructed by the dealer when it happened before I tried holding the fob near the steering column, the dash, just about everywhere. Tried locking ...
