  • My 2026 BYD Seal facelift ownership experience after one month

    For the cruise control increments, if you hold the toggle up or down instead of quick tapping it, does it change the behavior on your facelift software?

    @OwenB_MEL Yes! We used a $22 IP54 weatherproof cable box tucked right under the rear diffuser and ran a flat orange heavy-duty lead into the awning tent.

    Just got back from a 2,400 km coastal road trip with 4 nights of unpowered national park camping, running our entire camp kitchen and fridge off the 3.3 kW V2L discharge socket!

    BYD Coastal Road Trip & V2L Camping Setup

    1. Highway Touring & Charging Breakdown

    • Total Distance: 2,418 km (70% 110 km/h motorway, 30% winding coastal & mountain pass roads).
    • Tyre Pressures: Set to 38 PSI cold all round before departure with two adults, roof pod, and 95 kg of camping gear in the boot.

    2. Off-Grid V2L Camp Power Usage (4 Nights)

    Technical Spotlight: Off-Grid V2L Camp Power Usage (4 Nights) — chassis, drivetrain, and real-world telemetry details.

    • Ran a 55L dual-zone 12V/240V compressor fridge, a 1,800W single-burner induction cooktop for dinner/coffee, LED camp festoon lights, and charged two e-bike batteries.
    • Total battery drain overnight + cooking averaged just 4.5% to 6.0% SOC per 24 hours—completely silent with zero petrol generator fumes!

  • BYD Seal Underbody Aero Shield Inspection, Jacking Puck Points & Tyre Rotation Guide

    Just completed the First 5,000 km tyre rotation and underbody inspection on my BYD Seal at home using low-profile hydraulic jacks and rubber CTB jacking pucks.

    BYD Seal Underbody Aero Shield Inspection, Jacking Puck Points & Tyre Rotation Guide

    DIY Maintenance Notes:

    • Jacking Points: Always use slotted rubber pucks on the four reinforced CTB sill notches so the jack saddle never touches the Blade Battery tray flange.
    • Torque Settings: Wheel lug nuts torque to 120 Nm (17mm deep socket with nylon sleeve to protect the alloys).
    • Front Frunk Cabin Filter Access: Popping out the frunk surround trim takes 90 seconds and gives direct access to the HEPA PM2.5 cabin filter—saved $90 doing it myself in 5 minutes.

    @ross_jack_sco Welcome to the club! Don't forget to grab a matte tempered glass screen protector for the 12.8-inch rotating display and set up the BYD App digital key.

    @DominicWilson Those factory Brembo calipers behind the 21-inch alloys give so much confidence when the car is loaded with 7 people and luggage.


  • BYD Atto 3 60.5 kWh Blade Battery: Real-World Highway vs Urban Efficiency Log

    BYD Atto 3 (Yuan Plus)

    @Matilda_UrbanEV Agreed on the charging curve. I always unplug at 80% SOC on road trips because the 80–95% taper drops below 32 kW, so it is much faster to unplug and hit the next CCS2 charger.
