Thx for sharing. Ps if you wait three weeks 07/2020 will probably be available.

So lots of 45e owners must be having this problem? It is posted a lot.
It's a big task which will take 2 days. They have to take out the complete high voltage battery pack. If lots of 45e owners have this issue, it must be something faulty in that module by design. I hope they will put a newer design module in my car. Otherwise I will have the same issue again in no time.

I don't want the new 07/2020 software version directly after it's released. Let someone else beta test it first. ;-)
It would be good to know if the issue is solved. Would be nice if you let us know the result.

It sounds like a lot of work. The only thing wrong is that it sometimes switches to hybrid. Or is there a bigger underlying problem?

I have the same problem as you but I just don't know if I want to take it in for 2 days and let them remove the HV battery.
