100kW Electric (EM10)
Electric
Execute several 'B-mode' regenerative braking stops from 50km/h. | Note: Assess the smoothness of the transition between regen and physical braking; any jerking or 'clunking' can indicate a software calibration issue or early solenoid wear.
Rapidly toggle between the reversing camera and various infotainment menus. | Note: The PSA NAC systems in early EM10 models are prone to lag and freezing; ensure the unit doesn't crash during heavy processing tasks.
Drive over speed bumps or uneven urban surfaces while listening to the front end. | Note: The added weight of the 50kWh/75kWh battery packs puts significant strain on front suspension bushes and drop links, leading to premature knocking sounds.
Test the climate control at maximum heat, then maximum cold while stationary. | Note: Listen for excessive whining from the heat pump or PTC heater; failures in the thermal management system are high-ticket repairs in these vans.
First formal inspection including cabin filter replacement, tire rotation, and a comprehensive diagnostic health check of the high-voltage (HV) system.
Mandatory brake fluid flush and a 12V auxiliary battery load test; the 12V battery is a known weak point that can 'brick' the van if it fails.
Major service including a State of Health (SOH) report for the HV battery, reduction gear oil change (transmission), and inspection of all HV cooling circuit hoses.
Verify the integrity of the orange high-voltage cable shielding for any signs of road debris impact or chafing.
Lubricate the side sliding door rollers and tracks to prevent motor burnout on electric-sliding models.
Inspect the charging port pins for carbon buildup or signs of overheating (arcing) from faulty public chargers.
Check integrated wiper blade spray nozzles for blockages, as these are specific to the Expert arm design and expensive to replace.
Ensure the On-Board Charger (OBC) firmware is updated to the latest version to prevent 'Charging Interrupted' errors.
Estimated repair costs if issues arise
Standard van tires will wear prematurely due to EV torque; high-load 'XL' rated EV tires are required for safety and longevity.
Do not wait for failure; these usually last 3 years and a failure will prevent the high-voltage system from engaging.
If buying used outside of the 8-year/160,000km warranty, a specialist SOH certification is essential for resale value.
