RPR battery diagnosis

Precise diagnosis as the basis

A thorough diagnosis is the key to a successful repair. With our specialized equipment, we can read the battery data down to the bricks level – capacity values, internal resistance, even the humidity in grams! and thus the actual state of health of each individual module. Error codes such as BMS_u029, BMS_u018 or BMS_f107 directly indicate battery problems that we can rectify in a targeted manner. A supposed battery defect is often also due to other components in the high-voltage system – our comprehensive analysis provides clarity before unnecessary costs are incurred.

Battery fault? BMS_u29 u018

Error codes such as BMS_u029 , BMS_u019 , BMS_w017, BMS_f017, BMS_u018, BMS_f018, BMS_u025 and BMS_f107 indicate a battery error. BMS_F123 is an insulation fault (moisture) within the battery.
BMS_f151 indicates an error outside the battery.

* For successful remote diagnostics, we need your complete VIN and the e-mail address stored in the Tesla app.

RPR battery maintenance

Prevention instead of repair

More and more Tesla vehicles show moisture damage in the battery after a few years. Valves (umbrella valves) and especially the weak pyro fuse cover should be checked after about 5 years and replaced if necessary - regardless of the mileage. We have developed a maintenance concept that detects potential problems before they lead to expensive downtime. An investment that pays off in the long term.

It is now highly likely that the battery probably has moisture damage. Even an HV battery is not completely waterproof. Valves, seals, covers and other attachments must and should be checked, serviced and replaced after a certain period of time (approx. 5 years), regardless of their mileage.

Does my battery need maintenance?

…or is it still working? Thanks to our many years of experience with Tesla vehicles and several battery repairs, we have developed a concept for servicing batteries before they fail. To possibly prevent or drastically delay moisture damage.

Tesla battery repair – Video

If the battery of an electric car is defective, it sounds like a total loss. But even today, defective electric car batteries are simply repaired. RPR Motors at the Nürburgring was one of the first garages in Germany to specialize in this area. This is what the future looks like when EUR 17,000 is spent on replacing the battery in an old Telsa Model S 85 from 2014. I talk to Carsten Ohlinger, Managing Director of RPR Motors, and show you how a Tesla battery repair works there and how you can protect yourself from future defects with battery precautions.

Tesla chassis improvements

Not least because of our Nürburgring DNA, we can offer you products to significantly improve the driving performance of your Tesla model.

Chassis upgrade

Reinforced bearings

Optimized wheel bearings

Expert

Your chassis experts

With us you get optimized & reinforced bearings especially for Model M S/X.
Especially for Model 3 customers we recommend an upgrade of your chassis. The standard suspension is quite hard at slow speeds and rather spongy especially at brisk speeds.

Sustainability

As an EV driver, sustainability is important to you.
We don’t just replace parts/steering arms, but use our skilled craftsmanship to press out your old, defective bearing bushes – and press the new ones back in.
