Update from Porsche today . Apparently the on board charger has developed an internal fault and needs replaced - so being ordered from Germany will take rest of week with BH Fri etc . They said batteries are all fine but couldn’t explain why the 12 V died too as should have protected itself ? Anyway overall tad depressing . Only positive is dog is loving the Volvo EV as rear windows go down completely and he can hang out and leer at people like the M5 ?
Good they can fix it quite soon. Did you charge a lot on 7,6 kw chargers? This seems to be the 22 kw charger problem.

Sorry to hear of your misfortune @Docta76

Do you (or anyone else for that matter) know if this is this a recognised problem only affecting the 22kW on board charger option and possibly more pronounced an issue with sustained (exclusive?) single-phase charger use? Almost like one-phase in the unit is repeatedly doing the heavy lifting but the other two are idle?

Cars back this am - internal charger replaced . Everything else ok . Porsche said it’s a recognised problem , but they didn’t see any relationship with type of chargers or charging patterns . Took 3 days in total plus they charged the battery . ?
