    In my 04 50K; When I'm driving up a long moderate hill with one bar down (green) keeping a steady throttle the arrows (modes) on the screen will constantly change from all ICE, to charging, to electric drive -- every second or two it will change to another mode. The road is a bit bumpy but not harshly so. I remember the modes being more constant at a steady speed on a consistant grade. When I took it in to the dealer they said they couldn't duplicate the problem. I'm taking it in again and talking with the mechanic but am looking for feedback.

    Thanks,
    Al

    This is normal although it appears to be erratic behaviour. So don't worry just concentrate on driving.
