Since it happens with ac and dc charging, it sounds like it is a fault in the OBC or the BMS. The OBC is supposedly only concerned with ac charging, so the BMS may be the one. I fear a costly replacement. May be better to trade it in.
I agree. Unless the price is really so low that it's worth taking a chance that you can get a replacement battery under warranty, walk away. You have to ask why the owner hasn't already done that. Perhaps KIA has refused because the periodic maintenance has not been done?
Ah, sorry I meant a trailer hitch-mounted cargo box that sits behind the rear bumper, not a trailer. That way the frontal area of the car isn't changed. Its not just an issue of the frontal area. A protrusion at the rear may create a fair amount of turbulence in the airflow, which causes drag. Ask ...
I have a 30 kWh model with 102% SOH. The GOM shows 150 miles in Summer (average say 25degC) and 120 in Winter (say 5degC), without heating and aircon (the GOM typically shows 8 or 10 miles more in that case). So, for your car, those values would be multiplied by 93/102*27/30, i.e. 197 and 157km with...
