Problem: The owner of a second-generation Nissan Leaf contacted STS.Electro with a complaint: the car only charges from a fast charging station, but does not accept a slow charging gun (Type 1).

Problem: In a diesel-electric Peugeot 508 HYbrid4 Berline 2.0 HDi 163 FAP (DW10CTED4), the owner encountered a complete shutdown of the hybrid system – the engine would not start, and numerous fault warnings appeared on the instrument panel.

Problem: The hybrid Audi Q7 lost almost half of its electric range — instead of 40 kilometres on a single charge, it only managed 18.

Problem: We were contacted by the owner of a Peugeot e-208 electric car. After charging to almost 100%, the electric car stopped accepting a charge, and the system displayed a second-level overvoltage error.

Problem: In a 2018 Peugeot 308 with a 1.2 PureTech engine, the oil pressure warning light was constantly on.

Problem: The owner of a Karma Revero hybrid was unable to drive his car for over eight months: the engine would only start for a few minutes at a time, and the battery would not charge.

Problem: The Dacia Spring car would not start or charge due to a reversed battery polarity and a faulty DC/DC+charger unit.

Problem: The owner of a Hyundai i30 encountered a knocking noise in the steering caused by wear on the power steering drive pinion inside the steering column.

Problem: A well-known logistics service provider brought in three electric vans for repair after their high-voltage batteries failed. In one of them, the battery was dismantled.

Problem: The high-voltage battery is discharged and cannot be charged. The car does not accept a charge because the electronics do not recognize the connection of the charging gun.

Problem: A sharp drop in driving range and the vehicle switching to emergency mode with reduced power (“turtle mode”).

Problem: In the case of a critical discharge of a low-voltage battery (12–48 V), the electronics prevent charging because it is dangerous with Li-Ion batteries. The manufacturer recommends discarding fully functional batteries and replacing them with new ones. This is expensive.

Problem: The problem with the car was the incompatibility of the Chinese GB/T standard charging system with European charging stations. This created difficulties for the owner of the Audi Q4 e-tron, since the car, produced for the Chinese market, could not charge at European stations with the required speed and reliability.

Problem: Failure of Toyota hybrid batteries is a common problem that our customers come to us with. The battery cells degrade, making it impossible for the car to operate normally.

Problem: Land Rover Range Rover Sport 3.0 SDV6 Hybrid AT AWD - the hybrid system did not work, the VBB was in emergency mode. The car was running only on diesel fuel, the low-voltage battery was not charging.
