Re: 2.1 update confirmed

Ours all done so far none of the long list of faults I raised have surfaced so fingers crossed!

Anyone know what the modified carpet campaign is about? Just noticed it on invoice so didn't ask

Re: How is CarPlay working for you?

Seems to work over Bluetooth fine for us although I do get the odd stutter when playing music probably every 20mins or so with tracks stored local to my phone. The ID3 does it with both our iPhones and our two other cars don't do it on the same tracks via carplay.

Re: Wifi on 0783 software

I thought that too however checking my router when the car is asleep I can’t see it on the network so it seems only the 4g module is kept awake.

Re: Cracked Windscreen

No it had to go to an autoglass calibration workshop so they could do it all in one go rather than my local autoglass centre.

Re: Frozen washer jets

Frozen washer jets

Wish the jets were heated. Had to pull over this morning they were frozen solid and remained so for 29miles - visibility became bad due to the salt I couldn’t clear the screen.

I’m still on the screen wash it was delivered with which im guessing could be diluted Sumer mix too.

Re: ME2.0 update cancelled

Ours was updated this week, so far it does seem better with less errors and glitchy antics. Overspeed warning is still happening the dealers escalated to VW. One thing I noticed this morning I got a snowflake on the dash for low temperature I thought it was strange the car wasn't doing it before as ...

Re: ID3 Home Charging

I found exactly the same thing, car started charging as requested under “locations” but only added a tiny amount of range. I also tried setting a departure time to see if that would force the car to up its charging rate, but it didn’t make any difference. I have installed a relay in line with the p...

Re: ID3 Home Charging

Had the 2.0 installed this week tried timed charging last night it didn’t work. I seemed to have got 10% charge in 5 hours. Reading the thread think I’ll turn location off and go back to the timer method I installed on my charge point and wait for 2.1 :-/

Re: Cracked Windscreen

My insurers referred me to auto glass, they are trying to find out when they can get hold of a screen. They said it needs to go into one of their workshop as they cant do it on the drive. Luckily the ID3 is our little runabout so no big if its out of action for a while.

Cracked Windscreen

Logged it on my insurance accounts website waiting for someone to contact me on how to pro...

Re: Totally dead

thanks, took matters into my own hands after the dealer advised me not to condition the battery myself. I didn't want too boost or charge it incase the Battery Management System threw a hissy fit giving the dealer cause to blame me. Not wanting to get stranded either I put weight on the drivers seat...

On inspection with the design of the bonnet frozen water had formed in-between the bonnet gap all the way around and had f...

Re: To Charge to 80%... or to 100%?

Our previous BMW I3s used to warn you if the charge was low not to leave them in a low state of charge for Prolonged periods. Being into radio controlled cars I always assumed it was similar to the LiPo scenario in that storing at a low state of charge is not healthy for the battery.
