The day started like any other at the Super Mario Diagnostics shop, with the team gearing up to work on a 2021 Tesla Model 3. The complaint on this particular vehicle was concerning coolant level alerts on the dash and a malfunctioning AC system. The team was ready to tackle the issue head-on and provide a solution for the customer.
As they delved into the diagnostics, they discovered that the coolant level was indeed low, which could be the root cause of the AC issues. They decided to put the vehicle into service mode to further investigate and address the problem. With the help of the factory scan tool and service information, they were able to identify the specific part needed for the repair and proceed with the necessary steps.
The team removed the coolant reservoir and identified the low coolant level, indicating a potential leak in the system. They replaced the faulty hose and refilled the system with a mixture of BMW blue coolant and distilled water. The process was meticulous, ensuring that everything was decontaminated and properly installed to prevent any future issues.
After completing the repair, they initiated the coolant air purge procedure to ensure that the system was free of air bubbles and operating efficiently. They also charged the vehicle using a top-down pulse Q system, preparing it for a test drive to confirm the successful repair.
Throughout the process, the team emphasized the importance of following the manufacturer’s guidelines and using the proper tools to ensure a thorough and effective repair. They also highlighted the significance of regular maintenance and attention to detail when working on electric vehicles like Teslas.
In the end, the team successfully completed the repair, conducted a final leak inspection, and prepared the vehicle for release to the customer. The day was a success, thanks to their expertise, dedication, and commitment to providing top-notch service.
