Car updating at the moment. Remember to turn off/down radio before doing!
Mine is blaring away outside, all controls in car are disabled so cannot silence, luckily waited until morning to do update as can hear even in house.🙂. App also dead during update so handy way of checking when finished..
Is it possible to change the units for the charge level in the We Connect App on iOS from Miles to KM. Cant seem to find anywhere to change it in the app.
You do it on your phone settings. Change language from English "UK" to English "Ireland"
getting this update is like winning a lottery….
Are you doing the larger part 2 bit or part1?
Perfect thanks!
No prob, many of us had the same issue..
First bit done, took just less than an hour. No sign of the prompt for the main part as yet...
Can someone confirm that the We-Connect card works on ESB Chargers.
Was in Wexford yesterday and plugged in to a charger. Used the We Connect card and it said charging had started, but when I returned to the car about 30 minutes later, charging had stopped. Should I have used the ESB card instead? eagerv and ideas ??
They have always worked fine for me. Some of the new triple head ones don't seem to be on the We connect app map, but the one in New Ross worked fine for me. Will be interested to see if I get charged for it on Sundays' bill. I think Titian Germ had problems with the Enniscorthy one, but haven't had a chance to use that one yet. Normally when they say charging has started, all is well. So, seems strange in your case..
Cool. Thanks.
No sign of Part 2. Was reading on the VW updates info that the updates download when the car is driving and then install after the prompt, whenever suits. My car has not been driven since the 1st part of download this morning and may not be driven again until next Tues due to work commitments over the Bank Holiday. Will be interesting to see when the second part comes in...
I've had issues with the 50KW unit in enniscorthy where it'll fail to connect after a few seconds.
I charged there last week though and the screen had changed so the software may have been updated on the unit but it did connect straight away this time.
My charging is about 99% esb charging via the we charge card and it’s works most the time. Sometimes the charging session bums out after a few sec but restarting usually solves the problem. Tbh I had more problems with ionity chargers than with esb ones. Maybe some leaf owner stopped your charging?
Don't think so. There was no other EV'S around. Just that it was the first time I'd tried it and wasn't sure if it should work or not.
Another week gone by and not as much as a hello from the dealer, surely there could have been a more realistic delivery date than the middle of July ?
Sunday is the 1st of August ( unbelievable ) and I really can't imagine having the car by the end of August at this stage. That's a long wait. I'm just starting to get a little irritated at this point.
Delivery dates were realistic and then everyone was hit with the semiconductor issue which made a mess of everything.
First day out in the car in rain today. Have to say not too impressed with the left hand drive wipers on the car that haven’t been adapted to right hand drive. You might not think it would be a big issue, but I find you get a big residual streak of water across your field of view from the left wiper that is distracting. Why (apart from cost!) could VW not have put RHD wipers on the car? Love this car, but loses a little love over this. Anyone have similar experience?
Commonly reported issue alright on the UK Facebook owners page.
Not sure if it's something can be fixed via software either, is it a case of changing the pattern or is it tough luck due to the wiper shape and position?
It has been aired many times on this forum, agree it's not great. Noticed the streak line last night alright, hadn't noticed it much before the dry weather. There seems to be a bit of grease and road film on the windscreen after all the dry weather.
What I find worse is that the drivers wiper does not go as far up to the A pillar as on the passenger side, because of the initial settled positioning of the blades. Because of the distance of the windscreen from you this leaves quite a blind spot on the right of your vision, particularly when the screen is dirty.
I reckon it is possibly an easy job to change around the blades, just a swap of the lower crank arms. But VW will not admit there is a problem.
I’m not sure it’s as simple as swapping around the crank arms (which would be above my pay grade anyway 😁), but I agree visibility around the right A pillar is sub-optimal. I guess with time I’ll get used to them but it just looks odd. The blades themselves seem very lightweight to me and may be the first thing that needs replacing.
Definitely not something that can be fixed with software. It appears VW have used LHD configuration on RHD models to save money. It just looks so wrong. Of course it was a dry day when I did my test drive and never noticed it until yesterday! Its not a deal breaker, just odd.
So it's there for life, even if VW did acknowledge it was an issue, there's no retrofit fix?
Not to my knowledge, but others may be more familiar with this issue as I believe its been discussed on this and other forums before.
Wonder if that will be fixed in MY22 cars...
VW seemingly won't even acknowledge that it's a problem, so doubtful.
No, it's not a job I would do either . But it doesn't look like rocket science. Keep complaining to VW and who knows, they might install correctly on future models.
The semiconductor issue has been an issue since March but I suppose it took a while to take effect.
Still only 1st part of OTA update completed, but notice this morning on a short trip that a lot more road signs are coming up on the recognition system above speedo on drivers' display. Perhaps I haven't noticed them before, but previously only saw speed signs and no overtaking sign. Today had warnings of school children, crossroads, bad bends etc.
I think in the future it would be good if cars detect road signs and in the case of town and School zones will not allow you to go over the limit, sensible limits and on roads like I live that you have to stop and climb into the ditch to let cars pass, the speed is really scary.
In my old village People are driving at 80 Km/hr in 50 zones and past crèche on the same road despite failed attempts by locals to get speed ramps, the lazy good for nothing cops in the local Garda station won't do a thing about the speeding, it's not unique to my old home village either.
People can't and won't do it so it's inevitable that that day is coming where the car simply won't allow you break the limit where it really shouldn't be broken.
