What we repair on the Lenovo V15 G4 IRU
Screen replacement
Cracked, flickering or lined 15.6-inch screens are replaced with a matching panel. Where the picture comes and goes as the lid moves, we check the display cable and hinges first.
Price confirmed before work starts
Battery replacement
The battery is internal and held by screws. We fit a new one, then calibrate and test it under load.
Price confirmed before work starts
Charging port and power repair
We replace worn charging sockets and repair USB-C ports and charging circuits at component level. The adapter is tested first, because it is the cheapest thing to be wrong.
SSD and storage upgrade
The Lenovo V15 G4 IRU takes an M.2 SSD. We clone the existing drive to a larger one so Windows, programs and files carry over unchanged.
Price confirmed before work starts
Memory upgrade
Whether memory can be upgraded on the Lenovo V15 G4 IRU depends on the exact configuration. We check against the serial number before quoting.
Windows repair and reinstall
The Lenovo V15 G4 IRU shipped with Windows 11. We repair start-up faults, reinstall Windows cleanly with your files kept, and remove malware.
We also carry out keyboard and trackpad repair, motherboard repair, liquid damage repair, overheating and fan repair, hinge and casing repair, virus removal on the Lenovo V15 G4 IRU, along with USB, HDMI and audio port repair, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth card replacement, webcam and speaker faults, BIOS password removal with proof of ownership and data transfer to a new machine.
Notes from the workshop
- Many IdeaPads have some memory soldered and one slot free; some have none free.
- Hinge mounts on IdeaPad and Flex models can break away from the lid or base, especially on thinner chassis.
- Lenovo’s model codes, such as 15ITL6 or 14ALC05, identify the exact generation and processor family, which is what we match parts to.
Data recovery from the Lenovo V15 G4 IRU
The SSD in the Lenovo V15 G4 IRU can be removed and imaged on our own equipment, so files can usually be recovered even when the machine will not start. Recent Windows machines often have device encryption or BitLocker switched on. If so we will need the recovery key, which is normally saved in your Microsoft account.

Price confirmed before work starts. The exact figure depends on the part your machine needs, and we confirm it before any work starts.
