Hi All,
My ID.3 (1st Edition) is being recalled for the warranty work on the battery. Apparently this will involve a firmware upgrade (to v3 or the latest version). Does anybody know or have experience of this and can you tell me whether this addresses any issues with setting and running the Charging scheduler (I use a Pod Point Charger at home)?
Many thanks in advance

1. Battery recall - this is a 'inspection' first to see if there are cells need replacing and if there are the car can be scheduled for repair (i don't know more)
2. The software update is to 3.2 whilst might be 3.1 installed at the dealer and 3.2 finishing itself off after you collect the car
3. 3.0, 3.1 and 3.2 do have working scheduling although for me I found that it did not always reliability remember that at home I want to charge at scheduled times
After the update, you will also be able to use Inteligent Octopus.

Thank you for responding, really appreciate that. I guess I'll have to see what the results are and report back.

The downside is that replacing a main battery cell is only possible in a number of VW workshops and can take a long time because of the number of models needing the work. My ID3 1st edition has been in West London (sent by my local dealer) for 6 weeks and I am not expecting it back for at least another 2 weeks. I took it in for an update to 3.0, the fault was discovered during the update and I was told it was no longer driveable. I have an ICE Golf from the dealer, who has been great, but I miss my ID! It was fine before - I only wanted the update to get on to Intelligent Octopus.
Oh dear, sorry to hear that but I'm with you in that I just want thee Octopus Intelligent. My ID3 is going off Chester for the upgrade and my local dealer are providing a car in the meantime. No timeframe given but my assumption is that it'll be a couple of days - unless they find an issue!! Hope you get yours back soon!

I'm tempted to think that was an improvement in precision of measuring or estimating, rather than a change in the range, but I know nothing.
My car has 190 miles range at 100%. Is that bad? The mileage is only 1600. When it was new it stated 230. How can I tell if mine is a 1st edition? I picked it up new in November but was told it was end of the previous range.

All these examples are just due to the GOM estimates.
In particular when you get a software update the estimate become based only on consumption since the update, so if it's winter they drop. None of the recent posts above indicate a problem. It'll come back in spring.
