Battery Fault in ID3s and ID4s

[Goaty]

Yep.. I’m within this range. I’m in the 18000’s range. Built Sept 2021.

Mine too (NF023xxxx). But it’s a huge range of VINs and I’ve never had a warning message about the drive system in almost a year of ownership. So there might be other checks (perhaps the serial number of the battery pack itself).

[Goaty]

/\ Good point. Same here; never had any warnings about the drive system in almost a year.

Further digging has found a SKODA Service campaign ref 93Q3 for Enyaqs.

Unfortunately it doesn't specify which models could be affected, that's down to the dealer with more specific data …

But it does give the VIN numbers affected, so we can check our cars against the ranges given.

Like I said at the beginning - the VIN numbers listed are only a range. There may be only a dozen or so within that range that are affected or maybe a few thousand. I'm not privileged enough to have access to that full database, your dealer should know more.

I'm sure they are all on the ball and will inform you accordingly lol

My Enyaq 80x (manufactured Dec 21 - delivered May 22) Just had the software update installed and while the car was with Skoda, they also replaced the battery. When I quizzed them on the reasons, they told me they have replaced the battery in every single Enyaq that they installed the software update. They said there is no issue with the later delivered Enyaqs. The reason I was given for replacement = faulty battery. This doesn't explain much.

They're referring to the 12v battery not the traction battery.

Was notified a week or so ago by my dealership that my car will have to go in to have its traction battery checked / replaced. I presume it is as a result of the 93Q3 service request mentioned above.

My dealership are unable to perform this recall and advise that it will need to be transported to a Skoda Level 3, Battery Competence Centre (BCC) who can work on the high voltage system. I am told that my nearest Level 3 BCC is Vindis in Cambridge. As yet I have not been given an appointment date.

When I had the high pressure HVAC problem earlier this year I did some research as i thought that it might have to go to one of these centres to be resolved. At that time there were very few (see below) such centres available and I understood some did not have full tooling. I hope this situation has changed as I cannot believe that my Enyaq is the only one that this issue affects. My VIN number is within the range given earlier in this thread.

These are the dealerships that I think have Level 3, BCC status, but I cannot guarantee they are correct or up to date. Please do check with Skoda or the dealership before quoting further or if you need to use one.

1. Alan Day, New Southgate London
2. Vindis, Cambridge
3. West end, Sterling
4. Faintree, Telford
5. Marshall, Northampton
6. Capitol, Newport
7. Lightcliffe, Warrington

Wow - major lack of anything in Yorkshire or the north east.
