VW ID.3

hi all, can someone tell me if the left and right heating controls exist whether or not the car has dual climate control ?

Has anyone availed of the Airtricity deal? My dealer didn’t know anything about it

What wheels are they and how much did they set you back?

Also not on MY21 Tech spec. And I don’t think it’s on Business or MY22 Executive specs either.

From my experience with the Tech, the cockpit is relatively small so I’m not sure how effective dual zone control would be. No issues for me in hot weather with single zone for me and partner.

Last Thursday they said they will start the roll out in the coming days. They had a delay of some kind. So, hopefully this week we will start to see some OTA happening.

This is the latest from VW...

"Dear First Movers,

Thank you for registering yourselves for the first over the air update ID.Software2.3. 

Many of you have answered within the first day so we have collected the first ones for the initial wave. The "cut" for the second wave was Tuesday. We will continue to collect further registrations - so keep it coming!

So what are the next steps? 

After you clicked on "Agree" your vehicle is registered for the first update.

We will deploy the update within the next few days starting with the first group. Our engineers are working to ensure this for all customers in participating countries which took a bit longer than planned. We will inform you directly at the start of deployment in our backend.

Once deployed, your ID. will receive the download as soon as it requests a check for available software downloads in the backend, which regularly will be performed once a week by your ID. 

Your Volkswagen ID. Team"

Santiago wheels. 7.5jx18, 5x112, 57.1 cb and 45 offset. I got them from a guy in Tullamore through Adverts. He ships for free but I drove up to him and he fitted them with the tyres from my car for €60 extra. I liked the fact that he supply's them with the VW caps.

Yep, doing it at the moment.my dealer looked into it, contacted SSE Airtricity. SSE Airtricity then gave me a call, explained the day and night rates and deals on offer, was pretty comparable to my Energia prices which are due to be increased again later in the year.

On the credit,I think it is a climate credit that SSE Airtricity get,but pass it on to customer, usually within two weeks after the two week change of mind period

I can’t say whether all models without HUD would have similar interface to yours. You have checked that your other features are in line with Tech specifications? For example, you should have rear speakers, Travel Assist (in addition to ACC), 204HP motor and single, as opposed to dual, Climatronic A/C. As models are not labelled/badged Life, Family, Style, Tech etc. it’s not immediately obvious you got the model you ordered! Just something to consider...

Can someone confirm whether the charging socket on the car is on the driver's side on UK/Ireland models?

That's a pity. I guess they carried it over from the LHD models. For kerbside chargers, it's on the wrong side.

I think VW have the fuel filler/ charging door on Right side on all their vehicles, suits me fine. Less walking around car to plug in🙂

Most first movers seem to have received an EMail (As I have) on 9th July on their VW registered email address. Check it hasn't gone into spam or whatever.

Front assist didn't do much then ,

Or was it turned off ?

Very interested to know cos that's a regular occurrence for me.....but with deer.

Just checked and nothing - Can you remember if you needed to register or was it down to the dealer back when i got the car to sign you up? i got the other first mover incentives..
