    Can the Braking System be adjusted so we get Maximum Regen Braking BEFORE mechanical Braking starts?

    Sorry, no. It has to be ready for emergency braking, but you do get a lot of regen first

    Also, is the All Answers link a trusted partner? They wanted $5, but then they wanted $45 per month.

    No, I don’t, Danny can’t afford me :cool:

    Are your brakes grabbing due to rusty rotors?
