Another MY 2020 Turbo bites the dust

[Scandinavian]

Thanks for clarifying. I would be curious what the split was between extended and standard warranty cost coverage for this breakdown.

I have no information about it. The main issue here though is, that I understood it, that the Control unit on top of the battery, can only be accessed by lowering the battery. The work to open up the battery, revealing it and pressure testing it would not be needed. If I understood the info correctly it takes about 8 hours to drop the battery??? And about the same to install it? But there I am not on detailed ground . (just memory picture from a screen)

@Tooney sent me a picture of what we believe is the Control unit.

But the car is amazing and surprised at the battery stats.

SOH 99%+
Range 420 km.
And all cells are equal balanced!!

Impressive battery stats, basically that means the 'old' cells have very little degradation but that's unlikely.

I would be curious to see what SOH you get in a few thousand(s) km.
It doesn’t make much sense that 2 new (out of 33) modules bring the whole battery back to its brand new value

SOH might be based on some cumulative numbers in the BMS which got reset during battery repair.

Final update about the breakdown, repor and transport.
I got a phone call from my Service Advisor yesterday afternoon with good news! The car had been delivered to my Porsche Centre and they had check it up. He said it looked amazing and very clean.

Good to know it got sorted. But your Porsche advisor tells you it looks amazing and clean and yet...it has many (superficial) scratches? Will someone cover for the re-PPF of the front?

I have made a claim to Porsche Assistance now. It really is AXA and that does not inspire me.

I have got pictures from both Porsche Centres in Stockholm, where first the analysis and then repair was performed. And there is NO damage on the car at that stage at all. So from the service manager of the repair centre it was clearly done in transport. So let’s see

I think something like that yes!
It will most likely reset itself after driving a few 1000 km’s.

@Scandinavian - have you checked the SoH since adding a few km - i agree with your comments a strange increase ……..

Yes I have checked it a few times. It was extremely high in the beginning at 99% or so. But now after some 7000 km it seems to have settled down.

55 420 km. 99.12%
62 867 km. 89.92%

and it has been fairly stable at that level.
Car has been great in that respect since the repair and worked very well. Got other issues with water ingress, but that is a different issue!

Still love the car and its dynamic driving but all the niggles start to wear me out now.
