No word from Renault on this and its increasingly a pain not being able to reliably charge. We are getting into the unfit for purpose territory now as an electric car that can't be charged reliably is just aheap of metal. expensive metal at that.

According to MyEnergi Renault have managed to recreate the charging issue and area of concern, so hopefully a resolution shortly.

New car in Norway Nov 2022.
Experienced difficult to start charging at a Tesla Suoercharger twice on a 500 km trip. Quite frustrating. Called my dealer.
Resolution/work around seems to be resetting the multimedia panel by pressing the on/off button for at least 5 to ten seconds.
After the reset plugging in the Tesla Supercharger according to their App instructions everything worked.

I have used Tesla chargers on the road only and in total 8 times, 2 times failed as described above.
On my home charger the charging have always worked without problems.
