Mirror dip when reversing
Hi All I have set my passenger mirror to dip when engaging reverse. However this only happens when the mirror selector is set to “L” Annoyingly the car always seems to forget the selector in the “L” position when I exit, so next time I get in the car and select reverse the mirror doesn’t dip in reve...

Re: 2.1 update confirmed
My car has been in for 2 weeks now. Control unit failed and still no date for replacement to be shipped, let alone a date for arrival. VW communication on the issue has been atrocious, massively regret buying VWs first attempt at an EV as clearly they are in disarray over software/ hardware issues a...

Re: 2.1 update confirmed
I just called VW west london and asked them for the next slot for 2.1 update. Almost fell off my chair when they told me mid May! Called Wimbledon and they said next week. My experience with West London is utterly dreadful, they cancelled on my 3 times for the 2.0 update and now seem to be 2 months ...

Re: Over-the-air updates happening!
Any idea how to identify the ID3 on your home wifi network?
Does it appear with an obvious name like VW ID3 or do you need to somehow find the MAC address of the car and search for its MAC address on your wifi network?

Re: Infotainment : Media
Yeah I have been using car play and Apple Music and using Siri to call up music and radio. I have software 2.0 already. I was trying to add Apple Music natively to the car as a streaming service but as you say it requires a separate data subscription which does not seem to be available yet to ID3 ow...

Re: Over-the-air updates happening!
Does the ID3 stay permanently connected to wifi until you drive away? I parked my car up, switched it to wifi then a few hours later checked on my network scanner and it had disappeared off the network. Also I couldn’t even warm up the car this morning on the weconnectid app, when previously it used...

Re: using voice command to play music or switch to apple car play
I’ve noticed a bug (unless it’s just my car) when you’re in car play and you use the cars own voice command to change the radio station or open the sun blind, it takes you away from the CarPlay screen whilst listening and executing the voice command, then tries to go back to car play but just shows ...

Re: Infotainment : Media
You can add Apple Music/ Spotify/ Tidal as a streaming music service if you already have a subscription according to VW website. I’ve tried and failed so far to do this, maybe it will be available with the 2.1 software update?

using voice command to play music or switch to apple car play
Hi guys Anyone know if there a voice command that allows you to switch to apple car play rather than having to tap the car play tile on the screen? Also, if I say "Play Led Zeplin" for example, it just says "please adda a media streaming service first" even if i my phone is alrea...

Hi All Finally got car back from dealer after doing 0783 software update. Wifi seems to be enabled now, however when I select my home wifi network and I enter password it tries to connect but eventually gives up and fails. Just curious if others on latest software 0783 have successfully been able to...

Re: ME2.0 update cancelled
Dreadfully frustrating, VW west london still not able to update to ME2.0, no explanation, no eta. Very poor customer service. I am amazed that this software takes 2 days to complete even with a hard wired connection to the car. What are they using, some sort of 1980s dial up modem?!? Our Tesla is ab...

ME2.0 update cancelled
So I was due to drop my car in today for ME2.0 update. Dealer called me at last minute to tell me VW had issued a notice overnight to stop all future customer updates to ME2.0 due to a bug whereby cars won’t restart after the update. No explanation as to what this bug is or when it will be fixed. I ...

Re: 4G connectivity disappeared
Worrying that 0783 also has the issue of 4g connectivity dropping out. Was hoping that this (and lots of other bugs) get fixed with that software update! Have to say getting a little tired of being an early adopter, was smoother sailing with my Tesla... Annoying there’s no trick for resetting the ca...

Hey Guys Has anyone lost their 4g connectivity recently? Picked my car up mid December and the e-sim was receiving 4g signal fine. Then suddenly this morning whilst driving along I noticed car position on sat nav was not updating and 4g signal gone. Now I have no functioning sat nav and no connectiv...

Battery Preheating
Does anyone know if you pre-heat the cabin using the We Connect ID app does it also pre-heat the battery or is there some other command in the app which I havent seen to do this? I often pre-heat the cabin before setting off and would expect to see the range increasing as the battery is warmed up (i...

Hi All I find the lane keep assist extremely annoying as it tends to fight me if it thinks im not driving perfectly in middle of lane and if i try to change lanes it also resists to keep me in lane unless i force it. I have deactiveated it in the Assist menu but it keeps coming back on after we rest...

Scott you are life saver. I put both keys in the centre console cup holder and locked/ unlocked the car with button on the drivers door.
