In brief
120 modules
since March 2025
In batches
delivered by a hybrid specialist
Repair or write off
assessed per module
The challenge
With a module fault, a hybrid specialist needs a technical option that goes further than replacement. At the same time, not every module can simply be repaired. Condition and safety determine whether repair is justified.
The approach
Since March 2025, 120 Golf GTE modules have been handled at KWS in several batches. We assess the modules for the known fault pattern and repair the insulation fault when that is technically justified. Modules that cannot be repaired responsibly are written off.
The result
For each batch the customer receives a practical split between modules that can be repaired and modules that cannot.
Why this case matters
This case shows how we work with battery modules from cars: in batches, with a verdict for each module. That way of working is not tied to one platform. We can examine any platform. Read more about battery service for hybrid and electric cars.
