Re: No Googlemaps in Apple CarPlay after 3.2 installed
As you were…. I discovered my Googlemaps app was logged in to a different google account and changed it to my regular one. I also updated the iPhone to v 17. One of them has the desired effect and I now have Googlemaps again!

No Googlemaps in Apple CarPlay after 3.2 installed
Hi. I have just had 3.2 installed on my 1st edition and although it has connected to CarPlay and the Apps appear, the Googlemaps app produces a blank screen. I have done a reset of the infotainment system and reconnected my iphone 14 to the system but nothing has cured it. Any ideas anyone?

Re: ID.3 Battery Warranty Recall
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 anot...

Re: battery module and battery workshop
I put my ID3 1st edition in for a software update and have just been told that there is a fault in one of the main battery cells and it has to go to West London for a month! I will get a Golf for the duration apparently but it is of course ICE. I cannot believe the problems this car has given me.

Re: ID3 Software Update V3
I rang VW and they said version 3.0 is not a dealer install but an over the air update, and just to check on your car. No luck yet.

Re: Sound system not available
Found solution on this forum thanks. All to do with using Apple CarPlay on the phone. Disconnected the phone and reconnected it and we seem to be ok again.

Sound system not available
My First edition has just gone silent and a message says that the Sound system is unavailable but will be available soon. Settings don’t work. Any ideas anyone?

Re: Alert announcements
But you may be right. Using Google maps in the car and voice is eerily familiar! and it was on mute too. Now to work out how to turn THAT off.

No. I have Apple play but I wasn’t using Google maps or indeed the App at all.

Alert announcements
Since update 2.4 I am getting loud announcements that I am approaching roadworks or a speed camera. They seem quite random, and annoying. How do I turn this off? Can’t figure it out…,,

Re: Stuck in Offline Mode
My car went offline suddenly and said the function was not available. So I did a soft reset as advised by WeConnect support and reinstalled the app as requested. Now it tells me I’m not the primary user, even though I have logged in to the App, and that I can’t become the Primary User without doing ...

Re: Selecting a route in Navigation
Thanks Scott. I use Google maps on CarPlay where traffic is likely to seriously affect your route as by and large their traffic information is superior to the VW system. I just like the presentation of the VW navigation system, with its dashboard lights and very polite instructions!

Selecting a route in Navigation
How do you select a different route from the one highlighted? I have looked at all the menus and can bring up the main route and alternative routes to a destination but cannot work out how to select a different route from the one the car thinks is the best one. Touching my preferred route only resul...

Re: Home Charging- using location
I have a pod point without a timer. I have now tried departure time at 4.30 and preferred time from 0.30-4.30 and it seems to have worked! Got to 80% fine.

Re: Home Charging- using location
Thanks. Found it! Let’s see whether it is more reliable at charging during my Octopus Go cheap period.

Re: Home Charging- using location
Where do I find the Preferred charging period settings ? I can only see the Location delayed charging system which is idiosyncratic but not bad. Most of the time.

Re: Timing a Charge
I have 2.1 on my ID3 and it seems to be good so far, but I can’t figure out how to do an immediate charge when you are at home (and at your ‘location’) and have the timer set. The old infotainment system goodbye page had a button to start charging immediately I think,and the old manual refers to it....

Re: 2.1 upgrade software has been updated
My id3 First Edition has now been with the dealer for 2 weeks. They had it for 2 months last year. My dealer is as frustrated as I am and has always been very good at providing another car. It has been diagnosed remotely by Vw Technical and they are waiting for them to give them instructions/new cod...

Re: Lane Departure Warning
As mine only comes on when you approach 40 mph I have found it less intrusive than when it operated at all speeds, as mine did initially. Not a problem now.
