These are now sold

Just swapped mine in for an Audi A5 coupe

Sorry to hear this - but surely your gripe is with the lease company as they own the car and have the contract with you to supply you with an id.3 to drive?

nph - I have sent you a PM with contact details!

Official VW luxury mats with id.3 logo (set of four) - as new (unused).

£60 plus postage.

My July car has it too. Seems it kills the cars ability to remember individual settings. So before you drive off you have to go through the menus selecting mirror dip, interior lighting colour, road feature prediction (off) etc. Ruddy nuisance basically!

It really is. I have to set up passenger door mirror down and colour (colour 1) of the internal lighting before every trip as it defaults to 'off' and white. I had thought there was a 'save' button that I was not seeing but apparently not. I'm on 3.0 software. By the way - I cant figure out why ther...

My local VW dealer is stumped!

Stig2011 - have sent you a PM in the hope that you can put me in touch with the VW dealer that sorted it for you.

Mines the same and doesn't seem to remember any settings!

I ordered a Tiguan R-Line a month before the OP (August 2021). Fortunately my dealer has never given me a build date as they are only guesses and not firm until given a code 20 and confirmed build date by the factory in Germany. Dealers mostly do give these estimated build dates as they are under pr...

Ah OK many thanks for that - I guess this is an id.3 thing as I had it working fine in my Arteon with USB-C - will order a dedicated USB-C stick and see if that works!

I can't even 'see' the USB stick - just says 'no files found'. I have it connected via an adaptor in the central console - anyone any idea what I am doing wrong?

Many aspects of this car do seem to offer challenges and require 'working through' to get anywhere.

Thank you for all the helpful comments and insights everyone! I think I will likely try a dedicated winter tyre come November and store the Bridgestones over winter pending a change to alloys come spring!

Thanks MH - I have been meaning to go for winters for years and having the steelies on my car makes it an easier proposition. The question was really about how the id.3 differs from other rear wheel drive cars in winter conditions as I understand the motor is rear mounted so may not have some of the...

Has anyone got any experience of using winter tyres on their id.3? I'm mindful its a rear wheel drive car but at the same time not exactly conventional as there is a more even weight distribution but wondering how this affects the car in wintry conditions. After some snowy antics with my Merc SLC wi...

Its a rather nice VW pen in a presentation box. Now you ask I will go and take a better look!

If I didn't have such a good deal I would seriously think about cancelling but when you look at the delivery dates for other cars they are ridiculous. One, I cant remember which, said delivery May 2023. I have a Tiguan on order from mid August last year - no build date, no idea, just apologies (and...

There is no penalty for not taking the PCP because there is no incentive with the VW PCP at the moment!

I picked up a cancelled order last week - so there are cars out there (spotted it on Autotrader while checking used prices). I also got a free pen.

Indeed - Bridgestones are well known for being a super hard tyre. The reduced tread depth explains their shorter than expected life.
