Vgate icar2 dongle shows wrong soc value in abrp

I bought a vLinker iCar2 BLE 4.0 OBD2 Bluetooth Adapter ELM327 dongle. It connects with my Audi Q4 e-tron 45. However, it shows incorrect values, see screenshots. Previously, I had a Vgate iCar Pro Bluetooth 4.0 (BLE) OBD2 dongle, and all values were displayed correctly. But I chose the vLinker iCar2 BLE 4.0 OBD2 because it can be reconnected via a button. Can the issue with the value discrepancy be resolved?

We most often read the "true battery SoC" from OBD and then try to convert it to match the display SoC, but it seems like something has changed. This is not due to the dongle model.
What firmware version are you on for the Q4?

My Q4 is also not in the profile list in ABRP. I have a Audi Q4 e-tron 45. I selected Q4 40 e-tron in ABRP

We have the Q4 45 Quattro, do you have an RWD version?

It seems like Audi has changed the display SoC calculation somehow. We will investigate.

If you need anything from me, whether it's a log file or if you want me to try something, just let me know

It would be great if you can provide a few SoC points (display and what ABRP reports), e.g around 10%, 50%, 90%.

Here are some soc points. I will send you 10% soc point tomorrow.

Mostly seems like a 2% SoC offset, would you agree?


G

Gökhan Balta

yes its max 2% offset

Gökhan Balta

is this fix in the next release?

I have deployed a test for you - please re-select the car and you should get new OBD PIDs where the offset is fixed. This is only available for you and only for Audi Q4 for testing.

I have reselected the car but where do i know that it is the test profile?

Bo_ABRP

You don't, but every time you start the app we should download the new OBD PIDs so you should have it by now.

Gökhan Balta

Ok it is now -1 offset


Avatar

Bo_ABRP

It will probably vary over differ the 0-100% range, let me know when you have more data.


G

Gökhan Balta

Here is more data

Seems pretty accurate then. What we need to figure out is what vehicles on the MEB platform needs this change.

Can i help you?

We are waiting for reports from other owners if this is something coming with newer firmwares.

I drove 7,000 km from Germany to Turkey, and your fix was very good—it was very precise.

Glad to hear! Now what remains is to figure out which of the cars on the MEB platform should have the same offset fix.
