Thanks. I hadn’t considered breakers yards and strongly suspect that changing the battery is a specialist activity. Extra capacity is nice but just restoring the original might be helpfully simpler. I recall talking to a mechanic who told me that Renault electrical parts have to be programmed to talk to each other, swopping a good new part in doesn’t always work.Nearholmer wrote: ↑29 Mar 2023, 9:21amWell, a quick google suggests that you can no longer get new ones as “stock items”, but breakers seem to have them, including a 52kWh one which I’m sure is even higher capacity than I was aware of when my BiL got the car; then I think the highest capacity was 40kWh.I’d be very interested to hear about where Zoe batteries are available from.
Circa 11k Zoes have been sold into the UK, I’m unsure what that relatively low number will mean for replacement and spare parts supply - suppose you cross that bridge when you get to it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renault_Zoe
