When I lifted off the throttle this morning near a rural school the car tried to slow up with regen to 15km/h. First time I have seen that limit on screen. Touching the accelerator over rules it of course
I was hoping your car and a few others here may have been on the recent ship, but obviously not
Ok, 1st part of the update was installed yesterday. Waiting for the 2nd one, although some reported that it might take a week as the car only pings the server once a week.
Part 2 downloaded straight after part 1 was installed for me. Haven’t noticed any changes other than the home button and the background.
Were you doing a lot of driving on the day the two parts were downloaded and installed? I am the same as Rusky rusky, waiting for the second part. But car only being used for very short commutes over the weekend.
Have you noticed more road signs showing on the recognition system?
Downloaded after about 20 km driving. Yes more road signs are showing up but a bit hit and miss,sometimes they do sometimes they don’t.
Unfortunately not, probably September now at this rate.
Why do you think that?
Another boat due in at end of week. Electricus’ car should be on it anyway.
Are you guy's cars released from production yet? The My Volkswagen system can't tell you but your dealer will be able to check.
We haven’t been told if they have anyway. I wasnt in touch with dealer for two weeks.
According to BatteryLife, as you said, it checks once a week but it also does a check immediately after applying an update. If you ensure that you have the car in a good mobile signal area at the time and click OK on the message that pops up it will check for the next update there and then... if you miss that one, then you have to wait the week.
I got the prompt last Thurs evening for 1st part of update, but had to wait until Fri morning to accept install due to battery being a bit low. Hence probably reason why I didn't get the second part.
Probably have to wait till next Thurs for main install..
That must be the boat the dealer meant, all going well it will be here next week and hopefully it’s a case of no news is good news for anyone else with an overdue delivery.
Got the 2nd part download and installed after a short drive today. I guess “once a week” clause is only applicable to the 1st part of the update.
What is the story with id3 and zappi? Went to visit friends and their Zappi stopped 3 times in 2 hours of charging? I don't have any times set nor they. Is there handshake problem between them?
The dealer said he'd let me know when there's an update, now I'll email him Tuesday too remind him lol but I'd say if there was an update he'd have let me know.
no problem with them. Should be working.
do they have solar and eco was turned on or possibly they have old firmware.
The update appeared this morning for me - i didn't confirm it as was popping into a shop & has not reappeared on my return home (2min drive)..
Is everyone here who has the update a first mover, or is the update on general release now?
It certainly seems to be hit and miss atm..😕. Between mine downloading (part 1) and accepting install I had various warnings that some safety stuff was inactive. Did you get/still have any of that?
Edit. When you next turn on the car, the install prompt hopefully will be on the welcome screen..
You can also check for updates in the setting menu under software.
I had no warnings during the download of the 2nd update. I drove for 20 min and when turned the car off I had a notice on the screen that an update is available. I have installed it when returned back home. The update itself is cosmetic although full of bugs. The saved places menu is not working and the sound adjustments are not available.
thanks & from what @Rusky rusky says - i may hold off for now if it introduces more issues as the car has been solid since 2.1 so i may defer until i can no longer. does the update mean you can't drive the car while updating (you said that your radio stayed on when updating so expect is fully immobilsed)?
It can be driven while downloading, which I didn't get any prompt for. From what I read it will only download while driving. But it cannot be driven while installing (Which I got a prompt for) and all buttons and App are disabled.
Tried that a few times but doesn't seem to do anything...🙂
Part 2 takes the longest and that takes ~170mins. You cant drive while thats progressing.
Hi,
Could any of the Id.3 owners try something, plan a return route from Galway to Limerick on the car info system, and where does the car suggest car points - im just curious how up to date the charge network is on the VW car system.
Just to ask again the question Remoteboy asked earlier but didn’t get a direct response to, can those who got the update confirm if they were part of the VW First Movers group or at least indicate the month year in which their id.3 was delivered? Also, can you say whether you received an email asking your permission for update in advance? Thnx
Can you elaborate on “The update is cosmetic although full of bugs”? I’m sure I’m not alone in wanting to know what those bugs are in advance of taking the update. How many bugs have you noted over software version 2.1?
Yes I am part of the First Movers group, got the car Sept 2020.
Got an Email earlier in July asking if I agreed to Update. After, if I remember correctly, sending an Email to VW requesting the update as per the facebook group.
