9600€ second hand 2014 64000km, perfect shape, all (few) wearable parts replaced, that’s 3 to 4000€ less than the usual second hand price in France, though the double-batteried new versions (also arriving via Seat and Skoda) is probably gonna bump down the second hand market on pre 2019 models.

A friend, IT engineer at VW France, told me to give it a shot and ask for a battery swap, they haven’t answered *shrug*, but well, 150km is more than enough for me

And damn, the little bug packs a punch, I can trigger traction control a tad too easily, lots of fun, and comfort compared to the Twizy, in all honesty :)

Anyways, that’s me digressing.

Yeah, all I saw was eventually pulling down K-Line to trigger some diag modes, though, with an OBDEleven dongle, I could play with the dashboard dials with the car fully on, so I don’t know at which point triggering that generates or opens more traffic or not without having to stall the car. I might end up opening it up to see which pins are used by elimination.

I don’t believe from the little I read that CAN1 is used at all, but again, lots of the content I find are for older birds… or get my hands on a screw on OBD plug to poke around… 

The road will be long, but I will certainly not be satisfied by the embedded CarNet service (gotta see how that thing is connected! That’s an idea)

The Twizy was simple in a sense ;-)
