Pre-TÜV roadtrip/ringmeet is the obvious solution.

I forgot (or possibly never knew) that TÜV depends on distance covered and not just years. MOT here is just three years for a new car.
Glad it went through without many issues. Scoring on brakes isn't ideal, EV manufacturers may have to re-think the concept of brakes entirely if lack of use becomes an issue.
I’ll definitely make sure to do some hard braking right before next TÜV in two years, just to see whether that helps in any way
Reminds me of the old A(S)U days when you'd stress the engine a lot before going to the testing place in order to juuuuust pass emissionsPre-TÜV roadtrip/ringmeet had the obvious solution.
Yeah the km I just put in as an info - nothing to do with TÜV.I forgot (or possibly never knew) that TÜV depends on distance covered and not just years. MOT here is just three years for a new car.

The cleanest my brakes have ever been was after 2 Ring laps at Ringmeet. Just saying![]()
Yeees yeeesAnd the 'Ring is not far from Köln
And there are superchargers in Nürburg![]()
TÜV for a brand new car is 3 years, after that two years. KMs don't matter
Yeah ignore me I was just going by the first date in the thread rather than the first line where you said you got it in June 2019.Yeah the km I just put in as an info - nothing to do with TÜV.

Regarding brakes: VW is doing rear drums again because of this. Good easy solution tbh - don’t see much of the drums with those mostly closed EV wheels anyway.
Renault has gone from rear drums to discs with the new Zoe… which I don’t get. Oh well.
