Yopyop's Jeep Avenger

Reception and discovery / Rearview mirror

Hello,

Upon receipt of the vehicle. I was able to discover it on a 30 km ride home.
acceleration is good. the 113hp indicated seems to correspond well in comparison with the 90hp of my previous car.
I don't like the sound of the indicators at all but I will eventually get used to it (imagine 2 different tones for switching on and off: ding-dong-ding-dong-ding-dong).
I prefer the classic sound of the indicators which sounds like a slight click. tick tock tick tock. Anyway, I'm getting lost!
The reading of the panels seems good with sometimes some cou*** of course :) the annoying thing is also a "ding" each time the panel is read...
Over these 30km. I just went on to small village, national etc etc. So you attend a “ding” concert and when it stops, the first “DING” that comes, you say to yourself! Damn what is that problem ringtone! ah no, it's nothing.. ouufff..
The button on the left behind the steering wheel allows you to silence the overspeeding bells but not the panel detection. Damage. you'll have to get used to it. Afterwards I already thought about putting a piece of Scotch in front of the camera but shush. Afterwards I arrived home safely, it’s already a start! continued in the next episode.

Discovery NOTE: On the left of the steering wheel, there is a button, clicking on it gives you access to a menu where it is possible to cut the “BEEP” for each panel detection. That's already it. but the overspeed beep remains active, it must be turned off with the button.

Rearview mirror: In foggy weather, the mirrors are covered in droplets, despite 30 minutes of driving with heating not a droplet has moved :) so remember to wipe your mirrors.

Centralization

I encountered a small bug on the first day but I didn't talk about it. I told myself. I did it wrong.
in fact the centralization works well when locked. but to unlock it depends on the time passed since the last lock.

Bonus: This bug also works the other way around. Yesterday my parents wanted to see my car. I therefore leave the car open so as not to have to worry about opening it.
Result impossible to lock it with the key...

Last lock less than 10 minutes: it's OK
Last locking greater than 10 minutes: No reaction from the car... forced to use the key to open.

Citroën's response:

Hello Mr. annoying :),

Problems certainly exist with the model but we currently have no solution to provide you. As soon as we have notification from Citroën we will keep you informed. Or you will be sent a letter directly to your home to provide an update in our workshop

Kind regards

MAGIC TIP! press the trunk button to "wake up the car" and presto the centralization starts again to unlock.
I hope this tip will make your life easier! me yes

Rotating Phone Holder

Positive note. The phone can be placed horizontally.

Consumption in cool and dark weather :)

Hello,
Here I give you my first consumption result.
I drove early in the morning, at night in the cool and in the evening on the way home from work.
So in summary for the active options: Low beam, heating therefore ventilation, regulator and music and sometimes anti-fog.

I have done 191km, I have 23% battery left. Which in theory gives 248km of autonomy for my driving.
I specify that I respect the 50/80 limitations (no highway) but that I like the acceleration. therefore on a daily journey of 64km. I do at least 2 good 50-80 accelerations when leaving the village with my feet on the floor (probably due to my biker side :)).

On my next charge. I will avoid unnecessary vigorous acceleration and I will also try to limit unnecessary energy expenditure.
Sometimes the low beam is active automatically when there is no need... I will keep the music and the heating on anyway :)


1st recharge 10% remaining: 12:15 p.m. with reinforced socket.
no particular problem except that you have to get back into the car to unlock the socket as the centralization does not work...

Hello,

We know you are waiting for your new Ë-C3.
The latter should arrive very soon.
To allow us to make them available quickly, we need several updated documents:

06/11/2024 : I found in my papers that the SERENITY PACK which costs me a few euros per month includes the CARPET :) I sent an email because I don't have any carpet and he replied to order them, within 1 week. Cool, I'll have my rugs
