BYD = Beta-testing YOLO Development!

Also watch out for cheap Bluetooth OBD2 dongles left plugged into the diagnostic port under the steering wheel 24/7. Unless it has true auto-sleep like the Vgate vLinker MC+ or OBDLink CX, a cheap ELM327 clone draws 80mA continuously and stops the body control module entering deep sleep.

Rotated my wheels front-to-back at 15,000 km in the garage this morning — do BYD TPMS sensors auto-learn their new corner positions, or do you need an Autel TPMS tool?

Hooked up the Vgate iCar Pro 2S with ABRP (A Better Routeplanner) on Apple CarPlay during our Brisbane-to-Cairns road trip! Because ABRP reads live SOC % and real-time kWh consumption straight from the OBD2 dongle, its arrival SOC predictions at every fast charger were accurate to within 1%!

For BYD Seal owners where the 12V lithium battery is tucked under the rear seat cushion: pulling the T-Box fuse in the driver's knee bolster fuse box (using the white plastic fuse puller clipped inside the under-bonnet PDC box) is 10x easier than lifting the rear seat.

Unreal timing on this thread! NRMA just sent me a renewal notice for my 2024 BYD Seal Performance in Sydney for $2,410. Jumped onto Allianz online 10 minutes ago after reading your table: $1,465/year with $66,000 Agreed Value, Choice of Repairer, and Windscreen cover ($950 excess). Saved $945 in 10 minutes!
