Recent Best Controversial

  • Goodbye "Batman" Tyres! Best Replacement Tyres for BYD Atto 3 (Michelin Primacy 4 vs Hankook iON evo vs Bridgestone Turanza)
    gavin_john_ukG gavin_john_uk
    BYD Atto 3 (Yuan Plus) solved byd-atto-3 tyre-replacement

    Great write-up! If anyone is on the fence, definitely take a 45-minute test drive on coarse-chip highway tarmac first — the acoustic glass makes a bigger difference than the spec sheet suggests.


  • What do we think of the Denza B8 (Bao 8) 7-Seater DMO 4x4? 550 kW + DiSus-P hydraulic suspension!

    BYD News, Upcoming Models & Future Tech

    Spot on regarding cold tyre pressures and regenerative braking calibration—smooths out low-speed town driving immediately.


  • Anyone joining the BYD Bi-Directional V2G (Vehicle-to-Grid) home battery trials in Australia & the UK?

    Good catch on those specifications. I checked the service manual torque specs and fuse layout over the weekend and everything matches what you outlined here.


  • Delivery Day in London: BYD Sealion 7 Excellence AWD in Shark Grey with Nappa Leather!

    Owners Lounge, Delivery Photos & Road Trips

    Subscribed to this thread. Has anyone here compared this behaviour before and after the latest DiLink OTA firmware update? Mine felt noticeably smoother in low-speed traffic afterwards.


  • Towing a 2,200 kg Off-Road Caravan 1,400 km Through Queensland in Our BYD Shark 6 DMO

    For anyone reading this later: make sure you enable SOC calibration by charging to 100% on AC at least once every two to three weeks so the BMS range estimator stays dead accurate.


  • BYD DMO (Dual Mode Off-Road) Platform Technical Breakdown: Longitudinal 1.5T/2.0T + Dual Electric Motors
    gavin_john_ukG gavin_john_uk
    BYD News, Upcoming Models & Future Tech

    Thanks for sharing the real-world numbers! Dealers rarely explain this clearly during handover, so having verified owner telemetry on the forum saves everyone a lot of guesswork.


  • BYD Introduces DiSus Intelligent Body Control System (DiSus-C, DiSus-A & DiSus-P Breakdown) — Thoughts & Specs Breakdown
    gavin_john_ukG gavin_john_uk
    BYD News, Upcoming Models & Future Tech

    Good catch on those specifications. I checked the service manual torque specs and fuse layout over the weekend and everything matches what you outlined here.


  • DiLink OS OTA Update Changelog, 3-Finger HVAC Gesture & Wireless Apple CarPlay / Android Auto Tips
    gavin_john_ukG gavin_john_uk
    DiLink OS, CarPlay & OTA

    Spot on breakdown. One detail I noticed after logging another 2,500 km is that the thermal management loop stays completely silent below 32°C ambient unless you chain two fast DC sessions back-to-back.
