Re: New update to 3.2?

Had this on a previous update, you need to clear the “Close Windows” message by fully opening and closing all the windows a couple of times before it will let you run the update.

Re: Incorrect range reported in the App.

I’m seeing more and more reports of this issue on various Facebook groups, it does appear to be a 3.0 bug, guess we’ll have to wait for VW to push out an update.

Re: Incorrect range reported in the App.

I’m seeing the same thing, I charge the car to 80% and the app incorrectly reports the range being 116 miles. Hop in the car which correctly reports the range as being 195 miles and within a few seconds the app updates to show the same. A few hours after leaving the car the app drops back to wrong r...

Re: Granny Charger with extension lead.

I’d advise against using general purpose extension leads but these are supposed to be safer:

Re: What colour have you ordered?

Makena Turquoise for me. It seemed to be the colour VW used most on their website during the ID.3 launch and already attracted me to the vehicle. Plus I was on the brink of buying a C5 Aircross in Tijuca Blue before deciding to go electric and the turquoise was as close to that colour as I could get.

Re: Hi from North Wales

How do you find the charging facilities there? I go to Llandudno every August but will probably be in my ID.3 next year (if it gets delivered!). Rapid chargers look a bit thin on the ground according to ZapMap.

Re: Pro or Pro Performance?

Thanks for the feedback, my first ever car was a Mini Metro and I have unpleasant memories of coaxing it to motorway speed then watching the speed drop away on inclines, not something I want to return to. Feel more assured about the Pro now.

Pro or Pro Performance?

Sorry if this has been discussed hundreds of times already but I’ve just ordered a Family Pro and after reading more ID.3 reviews I’m now wondering if I should change it to the Performance model. I’m not a sporty driver, I drive my elderly Toyota Corolla for smoothness and fuel economy rather than r...
