  1. Problems, Driver Warnings or DTCs - Gen 2 Volt
    Hello - I have a 17' Volt Premier with about 50,000 km on it. Fantastic trouble free car so far till this issue! Last year when coming off the freeway, using the regen paddle to slow, I could feel a shimmy/vibration seeming to come from the right front of the vehicle. It felt like a warped...
  2. Generation 2 Chevy Volt (2016-2020)
    Tried to search here, but didn't find anything. I finally had someone behind me that I could call and have them observe my brake lights. In short, paddle regen activates the brake lights, but "L" regen activates brake lights, also? I was surprised that L would do this. Are brake lights tied...
  3. Chevy Bolt EV News, Reviews & Events
    I'm interested to find out how well regen performs using the brake pedal in "D" mode vs. using "L" mode with no pedal. We know that the Bolt will do regen with the brake pedal, but is it as much as you can get in "L" mode? So if there are any Bolt EV owners out there who are willing to check...
  4. Problems, Driver Warnings or DTCs - Gen 1 Volt
    It's cold in Northwest Indiana this time of year and with that comes reduced battery miles, which I've grown used to after 3 years of driving the volt. In the winter cold I typically see 28 miles on a full charge. The other day it was cold and I used the remote start to warm things up a bit. The...
  5. Generation 1 Chevy Volt (2011-2015)
    I'm thinking of getting either a 2015 or 2016 Volt. Most of driving distance is trips of about 100 miles. I live on a pretty high hill for the area (n. central Mass, 1300' elevation). Most of my trips will begin with a 6 mile steady down hill with a 1000' elevation drop with a few short mild...

  7. Li-Ion Battery, Charging, Mgmt System - Chevy Volt
    Drove all over, made it to work with 3 miles remaining, charged with the 110 EVSE charger. Got out of work, had 43 mile range (normally 33 in this Wisconsin cold) and when I started driving, found I had no regen until I got on the highway. Range dropped somewhere in the first 2-3 miles from the...
  8. Accessories, Apps, Modifications - Gen 1 Volt
    I have a really loud (louder than the radio volume I had set) whining noise when I regen to a stop, but it also whines when I accelerate, just not as loud. If I did the video link correctly, it is above, if not search youtube for f16bmathis Hey, anyone else think we should have a Volt...
  9. Generation 1 Chevy Volt (2011-2015)
    What's the most that regeneration can produce? Here I am at 34 kw (see image below). I think I've seen mine as high as 37, but haven't captured that image yet.
  10. Suggestions for GM - Chevy Volt
    The Power Flow Display shows the direction of flow but not the intensity (amount), so as you vary the accelerator you can't tell when you're approaching the switchover point between discharge and regen. In the old Honda Insight the main display (your eyes can stay on the road as you view it)...
  11. Generation 1 Chevy Volt (2011-2015)
    I've been watching a number of things going on with the Volt 'behind the scenes' with my nifty DashDAQ. Jetjock gets the honors for finding it first and he and Rusty get the honors for blazing the trail. There so much to discover that I'm overwhelmed with data but it's been fun. I live on a...
