Re: Locked out

Just had a quick look and roadside recovery for id range is 3 years, so you should still be covered - I'd phone customer service and see what they say. See link https://www.volkswagen.co.uk/en/owners-and-services/servicing-and-parts/breakdown-and-repairs/roadside-assistance.html Thanks. Since I hav...

Re: Tronity subscription - or not?

Hi, I'm in the same situation. I think that I don't renew the subscription; EVEE app is better than Tronity, and it is For Free. (https://eeveemobility.com/eeveeapp) What do you think about it? Thanks, really useful link. I am also coming to the end of a trial period with Tronity. I’ve downloaded e...

Re: Intelligent Octopus fallen over??

Same happened to me last night, although I didn't get the notifictaion in the Octopus App that a schedule had been prepared. I've also been unable to sink the id app to the car since Weds morning. I'm assuming issue is to do with the VW servers, which (at least in my case) still seem to be down. As ...

Re: Intelligent Octopus Woes

I have a Zappi as well. Car is on 3.2 and zappi set to fast mode but still having issues when plugging in. Tonight the “short charge” got to 11kw before I realised it was running and intervened to stop it. Any tips? I don’t trust octopus to identify charging and switch off when first plug in ( in i...

Re: Solar charging the ID3 / Bi-directional charging

We have a 4KW solar panel array on a south facing roof, it produces about 3.7kWh a year of which the house uses about half and the rest is exported, or more recently is put into a house battery system. I would definitley consider getting solar panels and possibly a battery to reduce your house bills...

Re: We Connect after 3.2 Update

This is one the of the 'features' of v 3.x software. You can reset your S-PIN by logginng into your id account on a computer, go to 'settings' tab and then 'manage S-PIn' where you reset it. When I had to do this, it took overnight for the car/ vw systems to be updated with the new S-PIN, but I coul...

Re: 'ID Light'

I also have a Life that was delivered in May with v3.0 software. The id light only lit up (red) when the car issued a brake warning alert. I took it in to the local dealership and they did an id light software update whcih fixed it. Annoying that the delivery dealer doesn't seem to check that the li...

Update to v3.0 software and car won’t charge

Two possibly unrelated threads here, so bear with me. I’ve had my Life since May. It came with v3.0 software and has charged reliably at home using both solar divert and timed charging with home Hypervolt. Car was on timed overnight charge last night to 90% as heading off to daughters graduation tod...

Re: Delivery time

I'm still having a bit of problems with the WeConnect app itself, can't add the car yet, doesn't recognise the VIN. Now annoyingly my profile is locked behind a PIN that I never set. I had the same issue with the SPIN. I found a PIN reset page when I logged into my id account via the desktop. You t...

Re: Anyone else experienced this?

There have been a couple of examples on here where Life models speced in October with assistance pack plus were 'downgraded' to assistance pack. This ( I was told) was done as part of the conversion from MY22 to MY22.5. I've not heard of any where no assistance pack was fitted. In my case it was a c...

Re: Cable storage - boot

I just use a couple of bungy cords attached to the luggage restraint rings to hold the bag with the type 2 cable upright against the side of the boot. Keeps it nicely out of the way without taking up too much space.

Re: ID3 GTX in 2023 face-lift?

The article states "backlighting for the volume slider" was introduced in late 2021. Is that right? Might need stig or more0 to answer that. I thought I heard it mentioned in an article, but not on the dealer information sheet. No change. Still unlit, but in practice it’s not a big deal.
