Some time ago ( Around 2 years) there was a forum member who bought the large 1kg can of PG - 75 and was offering to sell small cans, his user name is SEBA, I do not know if he is still around, but you can PM him

S13, thanks, then I won't mess with it.

If you wish to buy PG-75, these stores sell small cans: Gear grease for ebike motors - eBike Motor Centre (Performance Line Bearings) https://www.tiendamtb.com/es/varios/2013-grasa-molykote-pg-75-para-plastico-y-metal-30ml.html?search_query=molykote&results=2#/formato-150ml

There are no new version for tablet, but the old ones can be found: https://androidappsapk.co/download/com.shimano.etubeprojectmobile.droid.tablet/

Ha ha ha, Sticky fingers. I corrected the year in the original post

My motor is the original bike purchased in August 2018, so it is also an earlier version. Do you remember if you had to do anything special to dissassembly it, or you just pulled it with your hands and it fell off?

I have taken apart my other motor, which was manufactured in 2018 and I am trying carefully to separate the Torque Sensor Assembly from the Crankshaft, as the Motor is from 2018, it is not glued, I am pulling the assembly to the left direction in the picture, but it does not move. Any...

My experience and test is with E8000, but I read that EP8 construction is similar.

Thank you, this SN does not match my theory, so looks like my theory for the Version number is not valid

When closing the case, the top cover has a kind of of cylindrical plastic cages that enclose the sprockets so the grease can not be spilled out, so circuit boards stay dry

I updated the "E8000 Bearing Change" document, in second post of this thread: https://www.emtbforums.com/threads/steps-e8000-motor-service.16542/post-223617

I have a motor purchased from a Shimano distributor in 2021 (EP8 was released at the end of 2020) and with official warranty and I just opened it and it is fine, no rubbing or grinding marks and no burned grease: Version F73D (Last digits of the SN) E8000 Motor purchased in a Shimano...

@S13, @Dario and others, for the motor that had the grinding issue, can you please provide the last digits of your motor Serial Number. The reason is that it looks to me that these digits are Motor Version, and it would be interesting for others to know the version number of the motors with...

It has been said that re-greasing the motor improves the range, so I am going to explain my findings. In my case, I opened the E8000 motor with 7500Km (I have another motor with 7500Km), I checked that no water had ever entered, the bearings are fine and without rust and they spin smoothly, so...

Configure Motor angle and wheel circumference, it can be done: * With STunlocker Premium, but it would void warranty. * Also with Shimano etube in a shop and Shimano has to connect remotely to change the wheel and angle.

Bearingman, thank you, it is clear now. BTW, your web Performancelinebearings is not working?

Cranks get impacts from rocks and this impact is directly transferred to the crankshaft bearing, and more balls in the bearing would better distribute the impact. Anyway, If I had to replace bearings in any of my two motors I would buy the bearing after removing the old bearing seal and...

I agree that Max bearings are designated for low angular movements and not high RPM, but the crankshaft bearings rotate at rider cadence, than is, a maximum of 120 RPM, I do not know if it is feasible for Max bearings.

I just found this photo in a German forum, and it shows a E8000 broken bearing, and it can be seen that it it looks like an ENDURO MAX Bearing, that is, balls are not in a cage so there is more space to add adittional balls. So the correct bearings would be...

After three years reading you guys, I finally opened my E8000 purchased in 2H2021, it has 7500Km and I clean it carefully without water spray, the weather here is dry, although sometimes I have to cross shallow rivers. After opening the motor I have to say that everything is perfect. No signs...
