First time at a supercharger today.
Stopped off at Grantham, parked up (badly) and car (M3) was too far to the left of the space so cable wouldn't reach (does anyone else find it really hard to judge where the car is going using the reversing camera?)
Moved car a bit to the right so that it was within cable reach. However the only cable that could be released was the wrong type. The right type (CCS) was stuck in its holder. No amount of tugging, twisting, pressing the button on top would release it. Next door supercharger CCS cable was the same, but the one after that came free with a simple tug. Moved car again, plugged in and car started charging. Went back to check the CCS cables on the first two superchargers and still couldn't get them free. Is this normal? Were they broken or is there some magic incantation that will release them?
