Levo over-run again!

[Troutwrestler]

I had my last motor replaced over Christmas. It had 1400km or so on it. It had developed over-run , where it kept pushing after I stopped pedalling. This made it almost impossible to ride on technical terrain. The new motor is not even 65km old and now it is worse than the last.
Today's issues.
Today it had crazy overrun as shown in the video, and I could even hear and feel it pushing on and off whilst coasting and downhill. The only way to get it to stop was to lock the rear wheel. I could hear a dull clunk repeatedly from inside the motor unit.
At the point I filmed this I gave up, turned round and headed home. So disappointing.

I am going to contact the dealer tomorrow to see what they say.

this happened to mine, it would 'take off' all on its own.
shop couldnt find anything wrong but replaced it anyway and its been fine since... not many miles yet though

All modes. This is a 65km old motor! Annoyed...

That’s another torque sensor gone bad for sure. You are in need of a new motor.

Levo, when I stop pedaling, the motor doesn't for a bit - EMTB Forums

Engine had to be exchanged.
