Dealers and 3.0 software

Just booked my car in for its 2yr inspection service. Dealer told me they have now been instructed by VW that they can perform the 3.0 software update so they will do it at the same time but will need the car for two to three days.

Just a heads up for those who really want the update

Re: Map Updates

Ever since then the maps have updated monthly my current version is 22.12. I seldom drive more than 20 miles from where I live but even so the maps now seem t...

Re: Picture of the ID.3 charging in Tesco, UK

My experience is this. Free chargers are clearly taken by employee s of the suoermarket or the retail park. where I live,It’s only a survey of one but I always see the same cars hogging the free chargers. Same is true in local council subsidised chargers.It will I guess be only a matter of time befo...

Re: software update

I have had my car since may 2021, I never got any update to the navigation software. In the end I decided to factory reset the car and start the registration of WeConnect all over again. Ever since I did that I have been getting the monthly update that currently stands at 22.10. Might be worth a try...

App synchronisation

Is it just me but has the frequency of app synchronisation changed since the last app update. Sometimes when you open the app it says synced with car just now( thought that’s what it always did). Other times it can be hours ago. Car is connected and if you change something in settings the app syncs ...

Re: Plastic rattle rear passenger side (exterior)

Aero trays look ok but there are two holes one each side in the same place on the wheel arch liners, perhaps something got stuck in there. Strange though only done 7000 miles in a year and haven’t hit anything in the road. Car is booked in next week let’s see what they say.

Re: Not connecting to internet

This happens all the time. Easiest solution is to remove the third 5amp fuse in the second column of the fuse box in the glove box. Lock the car, wait ten minutes, reinsert it it lock the car wait another ten minutes. All will then work. One word of caution learnt from experimce. Do not remove the f...
