Having driven manual cars all our lives, my wife and I are finding reversing the ID.3 quite difficult because it seems to be impossible to keep the speed down when reversing. i.e. when parallel parking, I want to creep into the space slowly. I'm finding that if I hit the brake and stop, in order to ...

I got back this reply, which might be of interest to other people. Thank you for contacting Volkswagen Digital Services, All our new customers who are currently enrolled to We Connect and have not received the relevant opt in email of the 2.3 OTA campaign, will receive an opt-in mail at the end of C...

Email iddirect@volkswagen.de from the address associated with the account you use for the We Connect ID. app, ask them about 2.3. Thanks - I've dropped them an email. I've also asked why I get "this function is unavailable" if I try to use the voice control to demist the windows (other cl...

Well, the car was delivered on Monday. Looks like it is running 2.1, so I wonder if I will ever get 2.3 OTA or if I'm stuffed. :-/

Thanks - I queried the tools with the dealer and they weren't sure (the manual supplied with the car talks about them, but I think it's just a generic manual that covers all models rather than just the 1st).

Just received my ID.3 1st yesterday. There's no jack or wheel brace in the boot, which didn't surprise me too much since there's no spare wheel, so never any need to jack it at the side of the road. But the manual seems to say they should be there. Are they normally missing on the 1st edition cars? ...

Thanks. I guess I'm just finding it very frustrating to have absolutely no idea when it's going to be sorted - the initial indications were a day or 2 and now they just wont give me any kind of time frame at all so I have no idea if its going to be delivered to me tomorrow or in 2 months time!

I'm getting basically no information from the dealer other than "we're waiting for VW in Germany". Absolutely no time scales or anything. The dealer is saying they can't tell me how long it'll be because its waiting on VW rather than being a thing the dealer themselves can fix, and I'm ask...

I just bought a used ID.3 1st and went to pick it up on Friday to find that the VW dealer had tried to do a routine software update on the car, which had gone wrong and had apparently rendered it undrivable. They originally said they wouldn't be able to fix it until last Monday, but its now almost a...
