APP310 Rear Drive Unit — The VW MEB Bearing Disaster We have analyzed the APP310 in the ID.3, ID.4, and Enyaq several times. Forum users complained when we drew our conclusion after the first teardown - and once again, every subsequent unit confirms the same pattern. We are not deviating. The latest case: motor completely seized at 214,000 km. The owner had clearly been driving with audible buzzing for a long time and ignored the sound. Our conclusion was a design problem, not a quality problem. All bearing part numbers are unavailable in the supply chain. Of these, 4 bearings do not exist as serviceable parts at all. The motor had only 200 ml of oil left, burnt off by 180,000 km, and we are now seeing the exact same pattern repeating: the motor runs with insufficient oil, which is the primary cause of failure, and you can see black “carbon” residue coating the internals. The motor has no oil drain plug and was never designed for an oil change. So in summary: oil cannot be changed — it burns off — problem bearings are not available in the supply chain — problem the motor is repairable if you are not too late — problem we developed our own repair kit — excellent the motor is well-built but it leaks — problem there is no official service interval — problem Our recommendation: do not ignore buzzing or humming noises, and change the oil in both differentials every 100,000 km.

Hradecký kraj půjčí Tetínu 18 milionů korun na dokončení opravy úřadu, kde bude dětská skupina. Peníze vrátí po vyúčtování dotace, obec je na hraně bankrotu.



@premek1 @tkapler @skodacz @VW Problémy, jako popisuje EV Clinic? Hromadně? Ne. Na to, aby byl reduktor (ne motor, jak oni říkají) byl tímto způsobem poškozen, musel by bez oleje najet vyšší stovky kilometrů a ten hlub by musel být naprosto nesnesitelný. Zároveň olej v APP310 vyměnit samozřejmě jde.

Tesla adjusted prices at its Superchargers in Europe last night. In most countries, prices at the locations I tracked increased. Specifically, daytime prices rose, while nighttime prices remained the same or even decreased in many countries.
