There's a lot of variation between hybrid vehicles. Some are called "hybrids" because they use battery power to propel or help propel the vehicle, some hybrids may or may not plug-in to charge, and some may or may not have regenerative braking. Some hybrid models have both a high-voltage battery and a conventional 12-volt battery. With so many differences between hybrid cars, trucks, and SUVs, your 2015 BMW i8 needs a professional who knows hybrids. We've got you covered. Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care location is equipped to offer low voltage and conventional services for all hybrid vehicles, including BMW i8s.

Select locations also offer high voltage services. A high voltage service is anything that requires removing the BMW's high voltage safety/service disconnect plug/switch, servicing any high voltage cables, the power inverter, the electric machines/motors, the high voltage battery pack, high voltage A/C compressor, etc. Call ahead of time to check which high voltage services are offered at your location. Some of these high voltage vehicle services may include:

Hybrid vehicle diagnostic: Once we understand the reported issues, a diagnostic comes next so we can identify the root cause of your BMW i8's troubles. a diagnostic is performed to get to the bottom of the trouble with your 2015 BMW i8. With the information gathered, your technician can further diagnose any hybrid car problems you're having and determine what tests (if any) are needed. No repairs are performed without your consent.

Hybrid high voltage battery cooling system inspections: Your technician will closely examine your BMW i8's battery filter (if applicable), and then clean its ducts. (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)

High voltage cable inspection:  Your technician will look closely at the outside connectors and cable jackets on your BMW i8 and test to ensure high voltage is NOT transferring to the chassis. They'll let you know if the cable needs replacement.

Isolation test: This test involves using a special tool to check for any high voltage pieces that may be "leaking" electric energy to the chassis.

Remove and replace hybrid electric battery: Is the high voltage battery inside your BMW i8 failing or weak? We can replace it quickly.

Health check for power electronic systems: We'll check the power inverter, regenerative braking, and/or electric drive motor(s)/machine(s) in your 2015 BMW i8.
