Hybrid engine runs smoothly in the workshop but poorly on the first morning start

Describe the first-start conditions and what happens afterwards. A warm restart may not recreate the complaint. Preserve an existing recording if safe, but do not leave the vehicle running in an enclosed space to demonstrate it.

What to tell us

  • Time parked.
  • Outside conditions.
  • Duration of rough running.

Before arranging work

The engine remains an important part of hybrid diagnosis. Keep its running symptoms and maintenance history alongside the hybrid report. A system warning is a starting point for investigation, not a parts list or proof that the traction battery is faulty.

Ask AXION about this fault. Send the vehicle details and the information above. Please agree an appointment or postal assessment with us before travelling or sending a module.
