We've had an issue with the big Skoda as it took over 2 days to fully charge last weekend, having done some fault finding, plugging in the car to another wall box when the ambient temperatures were above 10c it had the same slow charging issue.

Back to the dealer today to diagnose the issue and a faulty high voltage charger was diagnosed and ordered under warranty.

during our ownership its been on the public network less than 5 times in 7 months

My queries are;

how did this fail in the first instance and how can this be avoided. Could it have been caused by a power spike?

The system should be able to handle any suitable charging method/device. Vag seem to be suffering with quality control with many of their electronic components . Thankfully the warranty will sort this out . I can see this being a fairly expensive repair.

Thanks for the reply, good job it was done under warranty as the part was £2,700 plus VAT

by the fact it came overnight from the wharehouse and fitted before lunch makes me think the part is on the shelf or at another dealer in the network as there should be some commonality for all VW parts

Well done . I can see faults like this happening on vehicles out of warranty could very easily make the car a write off.

All VAG brands use pretty much all the same mechanical parts. Body panels are unique to each brand these days but in the past there was some cross over there as well.
