Re: Heating and heated seats coming on by themselves

Not sure if anyone has had this problem but my heating and heated seats keep coming on by themselves. As soon as I turn them off it comes back on. It’s only on the driver side so I think the touch temp button on the dash may be broken or it’s a software problem. I’m still on 2.4 so was going to tak...

Re: Keyless Entry Stopped Working

I received my ID.3 in November. From the beginning keyless entry (unlocking and locking) worked perfectly. However in the last few days it has stopped unlocking. I can only unlock the car by pressing the button on the key. I have tried driver and passenger side door handles but neither work, even d...

Re: Tyres, Jack and repair kit anomaly

I know the sealant and compressor was removed as a standard item in Dec 21, it was then an optional purchase item at £60.00. I contacted the dealer as was told that as my car had Bridgestone Tura...

Re: VW Customer Services UK - terrible experience

Your treatment at the hand of Your dealership and the mothership VW is appalling.Here in Ireland we have the sale of goods act.It states that if you made a purchase of whatever and it does not do what it is suppose to do ,you can request a full refund,when all avenues have been exhausted.In your cas...

Re: Bridgestone Turanza Eco 215/55R18 95T (B-Seal)?

The 18 inch Derry Alloys do not come with Airstop or B-seal.In fact as stated in an earlier message,VW want you to contact their breakdown service if you get a puncture,hence why they do not provide a pump and gunk,only a basic tool kit.Cute hoorism as they would say in Ireland.

Re: Bridgestone Turanza Eco 215/55R18 95T (B-Seal)?

There is no Airstop /B-seal in the 18 inch East Derry Alloys.We have this issue in Ireland.Dealerships were telling customers that the 18 inch came with Airstop/B -seal.To such an extent that no tyre repair kit was supplied.When I pointed out to my dealership that the evidence said different and the...

Re: Bridgestone Turanza tyres and punctures.

It appears now that a significant number of ID.3s came into Ireland without tyre puncture kits.And yes dealerships assumed that if a kit was not supplied with the car that it had Airstop / B-seal in the tyres.Of course Dealerships are saying no problem,sure you have breakdown cover,until we send you...

Re: Bridgestone Turanza tyres and punctures.

Does your ID.3 come with East Derry Alloys?I have East Derry Alloys on mine.Before I left the dealership with my new car I checked to see if the repair kit was in the boot.I was told there was no need for one,as the tyres had B-seal in them.Apparently if your ID.3 has steel wheels,it does not have B...

Re: Tyre pressures at delivery?

What amazes me looking at the comments re this topic , is have all motorists got out of the habit of checking their tyres on a regular basis. The tyre pressures are clearly indicated on the driver's side of the ID.3.The tyre pressures varies depending on the load that is required to be carried.In my...

Re: Tyre inflating via 12v socket

Apologies if this subject has been raised before but.., I’ve just discovered my tyre inflator that plugs into a 12v socket ( ie the one in the boot) has a cable length that won’t reach the front tyres. This is irritating as all my other vehicles have had 12v sockets in/near the centre console which...
