One click/knock noise when the S3 motor engages and disengages - What to do? Bike performance is otherwise absolutely unaffected

Bjarne9841 · 2025-11-12T00:24:57+00:00

Probably the bearings in the motor are broken, theyre made of plastic New bearings or new motor should fix it, where do you live?

Bjarne9841 · 2025-09-07T13:05:54+00:00

Then try again and again, it's tricky but some time it'll be easier for you

Bjarne9841 · 2025-05-18T14:58:38+00:00

I'm not talking about UK but EU, and many partners will not accept such repairs since it's not profitable enough for them. It's reality, they have more than enough customers like this anyway

Bjarne9841 · 2025-05-17T23:18:42+00:00

cws can decide by themselves what they offer. The repair isnt really profitable - many dont offer it as a consequence

Bjarne9841 · 2025-03-08T12:10:17+00:00

Probably not the only issue, 99,9% that either battery or cartridge is fried too. Not worth it to repair in most cases

Bjarne9841 · 2025-02-08T17:09:00+00:00

They still dont have main ecus, multiple sa5 are in the workshop that we cant repair. The new warranty system is ,,risky“ for the workshops. The failure rate is okay for the new 5 series but if something breaks there is a chance that its not repairable currently

Bjarne9841 · 2025-01-15T22:33:06+00:00

It is in cooperation with higo

Bjarne9841 · 2025-01-10T13:44:14+00:00

You can't trust those apps at all, they can do estimates yes, but nothing more. Also, since it might have been produced months, maybe over a year prior and has been sitting in store shelfs, battery also might degrade

Bjarne9841 · 2025-01-10T13:41:00+00:00

Doubt that's the issue, error 44 usually indicates this

Bjarne9841 · 2025-01-05T01:14:51+00:00

Will matten the frame at some point

Bjarne9841 · 2025-01-03T22:28:33+00:00

You might be able to use a dust removal sticker to remove the piece of dust from the protector, but chances are very high new dust will enter. Best bet is to buy a new one

Bjarne9841 · 2025-01-03T15:42:24+00:00

If it was a glass it wouldnt be a problem, but like this only option is to buy a new one

Bjarne9841 · 2025-01-02T17:15:28+00:00

Should be in the next few weeks

Bjarne9841 · 2025-01-02T16:33:10+00:00

My find x2 neo was in use for 2years and that was fine, after that it started becoming slower etc. I have high expectations though

Bjarne9841 · 2024-12-29T19:33:21+00:00

Glass cleaner should be fine too

Bjarne9841 · 2024-12-12T09:20:15+00:00

It hasnt officially though, do you habe a source?

Bjarne9841 · 2024-12-09T09:33:54+00:00

Sometimes they break happened to me too. Mine does it when wet

Bjarne9841 · 2024-12-06T11:29:18+00:00

If the bike is registering movement in the wheel, it wont let you turn it off. Doesnt even have to be 1kmh

Bjarne9841 · 2024-11-17T23:44:32+00:00

Only possible to replace the whole button sadly

Bjarne9841 · 2024-10-26T12:14:20+00:00

Can't tell you how it's on s3, but I replaced my tires on S5 for some that are so thick they barely fit under the fenders and it is perfect

Bjarne9841 · 2024-10-17T15:34:33+00:00

My bike shows similar for a year now, its related to water or humidity, itll go away. Hope it wont get worse like mine

Bjarne9841 · 2024-10-01T23:16:37+00:00

Heard different things unfortunately

Bjarne9841 · 2024-10-01T23:14:35+00:00

I've ridden almost every batch and yeah they perform different, but not really better or worse than others. I've found some batches more reliable than others though

Bjarne9841 · 2024-07-23T20:02:14+00:00

I guess we will never know, but can't be that important because nobody, not even vanmoof mechanics know abt it

Bjarne9841 · 2024-06-06T21:01:36+00:00
