Re: Fitting Thule bike rack to 77kw ID3 2024

Apparently we can order the transport hitch, its a factory fitted option. Hopefully our rack plus the Thule adaptor will do the job. Can you tell me where the connector port is, we haven't seen any photos that show this. We can see that the hitch is hidden behind the number plate, is the port there...

Re: Fitting Thule bike rack to 77kw ID3 2024

I've just joined this forum as we're about to order a new ID3 (Pro S Match), 77kw. Delivery mid 2024 I think. We have a Thule Velo Compact 2 925 bike rack. I have seen photos on this forum from someone who fitted this to their ID3 load hitch (tow bar). Can anyone confirm this works and do I need an...

its just seem like compatibility issue with browser which will resolve by clearing your browser cache, if it still issues try using different browser.
Cheers, will try that
That seemed to do the trick

Re: Condensation and water droplets inside headlight

Thanks for the reply, I use Chrome on a MacBook, good to know it's not just an Apple/Windows thing.

Re: Condensation and water droplets inside headlight

Yesterday I noticed the nearside (Matrix) headlight was very misted up, the offside one was fine. I drove with lights on to a friends house 22 miles away and the condensation was just as bad when I checked it upon arrival. I know these headlights don't emit much in the way of heat. I had parked up a...

Re: Phantom braking

I find ACC works well in situations where I am, er, "cruising": wanting minimal fuss, a particular maximum speed, opportunity to rest both feet. Long stretches of motorway or similar. I've never tried it in town traffic or on minor country roads, and am not sure I'd want to. I agree about...

Re: Software Feature Requests

Since 3.2 upgrade I am fairly happy with what the car has to offer. But… I would love VW to fix the bug that stops the passenger side mirror for auto dipping on reverse. So annoying having to twiddle the knob to select the left hand mirror to get it to dip. Doubly annoying that it worked perfect on...
