It a Stalantis product just like a jeep. We like to complain about Ineos. Go spend some time with the Jeep and Ram guys. They have real issues. Like engines blowing up and ev jeeps burning to the ground.

Enough of the wild speculation!More wild speculation . . .
. . . so if INEOS only used a 10-bit two's complement for signed binaries, they would truncate values with modulus 1024 (keep subtracting 1024 until you get a number smaller than 1024). In other words, they don't expect someone to go more than 1024 days (2 years 9-1/2 months) without getting a reset. Using that scheme, I generated a table showing the error message days in the first column and your expected service date in the far right column. Does this jive with reality for anyone?

SUMMARY
C-Mack still in the lead with the Chook as tail end Charlie. Wile E Coyote is doing much better than when he takes on the Roadrunner.
56 members listed so far, from lowest to highest number of days. Only 2 members with no alert.
If I missed you tell me.
Just look away. NoEnough of the wild speculation!
There is something called the "2038 Problem" where millions of 32 bit processors will run out of code in January 2038. I suspect it may be something like that rather than Y2K.Is this the millennium bug finally showing up - just a quarter of a century late?
