    "2nd dead bosch gen 4 motor not happy

    Mine has died at about 4.5k miles and just under 3 years old. Error 500 basic code. I've done the outer seal kit and bearings as per my video. Been waiting for Bosch to tell me how much anal plundering it's going to cost for a new motor.😭

    Now I have a Gen 4 that's totally dead and needs a replacement. The Gen 2 is now nice and quiet. And the 500 race bike is in bits at the classic TT on the Isle of Man . Still got another two we can destroy yet 🤔

    I also got suckered into a race and ended up coming 9th in the ebike category. Not bad considering that some were using chipped motors! Quick edit. Forgot to mention my mate tells the guy giving him grief to F off around the 11 min mark. Plenty of jabbering then 🤣

    Derailleur clutch probably needs cleaning out and readjusting as it's not keeping enough tension on the chain.

    Bearing extraction and press tools

    Various sized sockets and long bolts and washers work as good as anything.

    Spare motor off old bike. Just going to replace drive side bearings so I can do a straight swap. Or that's the theory 🤔

    Bosch CX Gen 4 - missing seal and ERROR 500

    I'd get InTouch with Bosch if I was you. There's no point in putting silicone sealant into the hole if the motor has already got water in it. It could be a different casing or they could have cocked up and you may be due another new motor.
