Bye bye ID

After 3 years and 56,000 miles it’s time to say goodbye to our ID 1st Edition. We came to love the way it drove and most of its little foibles but ultimately we are changing to Hyundai Kona We might have been tempted if the 77w had 5 seats but tge constant various warnings always had my wife on edge...

Re: recall for rear Light Clusters

Not heard of a recall but ours had a new one due to warnings and failure of left rear indicator (occasionally)
Fault code was detected and cluster replaced under warranty

Re: ID.3 Extended Warranty

Thanks for the above I think most of us keeping beyond the 3 year will be looking at extending as cost of repairs is likely to be eye watering but will interesting to see what it actually covers! Future updates and life expectancy of control modules is an unknown and we have all seen a requirement t...

Re: Cornering Light Message Fault

We have had this on numerous occasions, together with the indicator and brake light warnings on alm occasions there was nothing actually wrong and a turn off, lock and restart cleared fault

Currently have a front passenger side window not working and awaiting workshop visit!

Re: Volkswagen cuts EV production Citing Strong customer reluctance

As has been said previously the stigma of early release and software issues have stayed with ID3 plus the abysmal wait for delivery of new vehicles (not just VW) have all had an effect of sales, and watching the forum deliveries don’t seem to be improving ! Speaking to a neighbour he will not buy an...

Re: Cornering Light Message Fault

Has anyone else had this problem recently?
Ours just started yesterday, usual leaving it overnight made no difference and booked into dealer but 2 weeks away

Very annoying but at least everything appears to be working!

Any suggestions on a fix or is it dealer job

Thanks

Have sent podpoint a message (but not holding my breath on a reply) We start charge earlier now in hope that enough time will be av...

Re: WeConnect app shows blank-ish screens

Same here and coincided with upgrade to IOS16 and thought it must have been the combination of the two
But looking at forum looks like a bad update !

Re: Moving on

You will love the ionic 5 !
We have both a P45 ionic 5 and a 1st edition ID
We love both ! The ID still makes me smile with its sharper handling than the ioniq but the ioniq is so smooth and large!
A few niggles on the ioniq as you would expect (first edition car!) but overall wonderful!

Re: Hyundai IONQ5

We have both an ID and a Ioniq5 project 45 Very different machines and we love both ! The ionic is deceptively quick in normal snd sport modes and huge on the inside, exterior wise different in a good way in my opinion! The ID always feels quick and is so manoeuvrable We love both in different ways ...
