Re: ID3 software v2.4 and 3.x

I received email from VW this morning inviting me to book in for battery replacement and software update. Phoned my service department who told me that they are currently doing experimental updates to unassigned ID.3s and ID.4s and will contact owners when they are happy with the process! They are h...

Re: Tyres worn after 15,000 km

My ID.3 was in for some work last week and the visual inspection showed up amber on the tyres. When I queried it the service guy was already prepared for my question and said that the tyres fitted on ID.3s always seemed to have a lower starting point tread depth than VW ICEs. Sounded odd at the time...

Part 2 will change that to 0910, and add a new "ID. Software" category to the screen which will show "2.3.0".
Thank you.

Re: General 2.3 OTA rollout to start

Does one have any choice about when the installation takes place? After all, I know better than the car whether I'm planning to go somewhere within the next three hours! :) Absolutely. It is offered to you as soon as available, it won't install while you're driving, it will appear on the Goodbye sc...

Re: General 2.3 OTA rollout to start

Finally received the email from VW this morning inviting me to agree to the software update. Will now await notification to download update in the car. Got mine too. Does anyone following this conversation know how long it will take to install? Hopefully there will be an option to schedule it or at...

Thanks.

Re: api compatible wall chargers ?

Whilst in the process of home researching wall chargers for the ID.3 I came across OHME chargers. OHME seemed to be a good choice as they appear to be future-proof with Octopus tariffs and any future energy advances that Octopus may make. However... I asked a question about communication compatibil...

Re: Queuing at the petrol stations!

Of course Brexit is at the root of it. There are no shortages or supply problems in any of the main european countries. In this country there are shortages in nearly every sector, including building supplies and materials in most areas.. Have you been in a supermarket recently? That's untrue. There...

Re: Home Charging- using location

Part success with charging by location. I set the departure time as 04:30 and preferred times as 0:05 till 04:30. It worked , part success as it charged up to 100%. I thought everything was set at 80%. Oh well another week before I can try again. Very few miles in lockdown. I will take photos of al...

Re: We Charge App.. but no 2.3?

Apologies. Someone referred to a We Charge app and I thought it was something new, searched in the App Store, there was a hit and I apparently had it installed so I tapped it and it opened WeConnectID which is what I was talking about.

The WeCharge function installed in the car last night.

Re: We Charge App.. but no 2.3?

The We Charge app is getting on my nerves. I updated it the other day and it started asking me to login in - I've been using it for months without having to do that. It then timed out trying to log me in several times. Having finally got in, I find today that it wants me to log in again but that is...

Re: ID3 Software Update v2.3

Have you tried using your phone as a hotspot? Internet radio works that way. Sorry. I didn’t mean use the phone to update. The e sim does that. I simply meant to use as a data carrier for internet radio. Hi, My understanding is that the OTA updates will only come over the car's 4G connection. Home ...

I received a message when driving earlier that my update was ready and did I want to install. I declined as where I was driving meant I was stopping for an hour, then a second stop for an hour before returning home. As I understand it the update begins when you stop and park the car after you’ve ac...
