I don’t care. I want a simple car with simple parts that I can fix. Not this spaceship that we get now days.
The 12v battery on my partners car had to be replaced, apparently it had to be “paired” in the shop and was not user serviceable wtf!?
The "pairing" probably makes sense if you deep-dive into the technical details. My guess is that the battery has software on it to improve performance, total life, whatever.
The real problem is that the whole is not designed to be user-servicable.
