how ?,they go up and down in front of your face,how the f else way can you make clap hands wipers work ?
Unless you're much smaller and sit much lower in the seat it might not be a problem lol.
Kinda odd though they would not change them around.
They wipe the worng way so you're left with a patch of water in the driver's eyeline.
I genuinely cannot understand wtf the "problem" with the wipers is,they work perfectly fine so what if The passenger side goes first ? ,They both wipe the same area of screen with the same frequency.
Yeah maybe after a while I won't notice, I wouldn't bet that VW would change them around, probably impossible anyway knowing VW. 😊
I am almost used to them, but there is a bigger blind spot on the drivers side A pillar. Looks to be a reasonably simple job for VW to change around the arms so the drivers wiper lies above the passenger side when settled..
I experienced the wipers yesterday in the rain, pain in the ass alright, whatever possessed VW not to change them around ?
Have the pulsar plus myself. Not once i used the timer function in the car. Charger schedule works flawlessly.
Plug in when you get home and finished using car. Turn off on the app (Stops charging more or less immediately). Turn on from app when cheap rate or when going to bed (Takes a short while perhaps 30 seconds or more. Resist urge to re press the charge slider while waiting as it can then get confused🙄) And as KC says, clear all charging locations.
The ID.Buzz van is due out sometime next year, it's basically an electric transporter on an ID frame.
Should have the same 77kWh battery as the Tour, but obviously with the bigger size it'll have much higher consumption
V2L is something which is finally starting to become commonplace, the Honda E and Ioniq 5 both have the ability to power appliances.
Recently the ID.Life concept had a 3 pin plug output as well, so hopefully it's a sign that VW are seeing the light
Yeah have been following the thread, I knew the timers weren't great but I had location set in work and it worked fine in work.
So the trick then to get immediate charging when plugged in is to delete all locations ? don't mind if that's all I have to do because I can use the timed function on my pulsar plus which is a lot simpler to figure out than the Zappi.
Surprisingly, no he didn't lol. 😀
Makes no sense, vast room for a bigger battery, and vans are very light, when empty, and most people use them for tools, not cargo.
Would love a proper electric van, one that can power the tools one carries, and one that has a massive battery, has a solar roof, and one that does at least a real 250 miles . Seems easy to produce to be fair, considering the the space available.
I heard Del Boy was the chief operating officer who oversaw the development of that transporter.
I think the "new" electric transporter is actually several years old, it was only available in some countries
AFAIK it uses the E-Golf power train, so the battery is pretty small
Also, heavily loaded vans lose a big chunk of range
How come the new VW Transporter Electric has a range of only 50miles, can only do 56 mph, and costs a fortune. What are they powering it with Duracell batteries .
Seems strange, electric vehicles in the 70's had better stats. Why so different to the ID.3
Did the salesman also say you couldn't charge when it's raining? 😂
I can't believe that I can't change timers via the app or even see what timers are active, that's really poor!!!
You can but you need to be on the 2.3 software first and you have to setup the "Locations" in the car first. Once you do that you can then view/edit the timers.
However, the timers dont work properly. They are still broken so dont even waste your time trying as you will be constantly wondering if the car will be charged for you in the morning.
Car didn't charge last night, no idea what I did wrong but anyway
Have you not been following the thread? 😀
The timers are broken. You need to forget about them until VW fix it. In the meantime you need to delete all the locations and then manually start the charge session either via the WeCharge app or via your charge point timer (if it has that capability).
If you have locations setup in the car it will mess with the whole thing so be sure to delete all them first.
Well part 2 of 2.3 was downloading earlier and now it’s disappeared and car is gone offline. Feck it anyway.
i managed first public charging session at Lidl and was joined by another Id.3. Didn’t see owner though.
Do you have a link?
They lied to you ;)

Car didn't charge last night, no idea what I did wrong but anyway, got 1 hr before the peak rate kicked in, plenty for me for today and probably tomorrow.
I thought I had it set up like I had in work where it charges as soon as it's plugged in.
For a good laugh, I requested mud flaps to be thrown in and I was told they don't make them for electric cars! lol
Mud flaps.
Not the Torque Alliance ones, cheaper version from Amazon
I had the same as you with my lane assist etc. being a bit odd for a few days around the time I was getting notices about the upgrade. Thought I had started the update but the first time it said failed and the second time nothing seems to have happened. I’m out for a few hours today but going to spend a bit of time when I come home checking it out.
Did you just go into settings and then systems to start the upgrade?
Are they the ones from that Dutch company? Been thinking about getting them and the boot liner.
Actually, after checking, EasyGo has 850+ chargers nationwide vs ESB with 1350+, so thin on the ground might be a bit of an unfair description.
You might try EasyGo if there is a Lidl with free chargers in your area. I ordered a fob (they say there is a €6 charge but mine came free) a few weeks ago and it arrived within 4 days. You can use any ESB charger (at a cost) in addition to EasyGo chargers (which admittedly are thin on the ground), but our local Lidl has two EasyGo chargers that are free, so whileI do the shopping I can get a 70 km top-up for free.
I just have ecars and EasyGO apps installed. Haven’t charged in public yet. But there’s free charging at work so I might need to start availing of that.
I have easygo as well. Handy if doing a bit of shopping at Lidl (Free atm), Ikea, Decathlon.
