Heated steering wheel defaults to being on

Hi, Not a terrible problem but every time I power up the car the heated steering wheel is always on meaning that I have to go into the Clima menu to switch it off as well as turning off the annoying lane assist thing. Anyone know how to switch this off? It's happened ever since Listers VW had it for...

Passenger side headlamp on July 2022 ID3 misted up, driver's side fine. Hoping that Listers are happy to replace under warranty.

Re: Headlight Dipped Beam Level Too High

I had this problem a few weeks ago - when the lights came on they'd adjust their levels but the driver's side one adjusted itself far too high. Other drivers really hated it so I ended up driving around with some black gaffer tape over the lower part of the headlight as a DIY dipped beam. VW garage ...

Re: "electric drive" error

I had this error and lost heating in early October last year - took it to garage and was told that the positive coefficient heater had failed. Took a month to get one from Germany.

Re: Preconditioning

Thanks for all your replies. As G43FAN suggested, I gave the windscreen a good clean using an alcohol based cleaner and this has improved misting no end. I'd never got round to cleaning the screen from when the car was new as VW had it for a month after it broke. As for the preheating of the cabin, ...

Re: VW BLACK AND SILVER DUSTBIN LIDS

Hi Grant,
Thanks, I think I've sent you a private message about the trims and cable but it's not entirely clear whether it's been sent.
If not, please let me know and I'll try again.
Cheers

Re: WeConnect app shows blank-ish screens

I emailed We Connect Support <weconnect-support@volkswagen.de> - they advised me to delete the app, restart my smartphone and reload app (version 1.39.1). Did all that - still doesn't work!

Re: Electric drive warning

Same warning for me on a one month old ID3 Life Pro Performance - VW Assist advised it's a software issue that requires a dealer visit - otherwise car ok to drive.
