VW ID.3

Has anyone had issues since the last software update, I did one I think Tues or Wed this week, and ever since the display is constantly shutting down and restarting as I’m driving. Very frustrating, sometimes it even disables the cruise control and the panel at steering wheel that shows the lanes etc goes bright white like it’s disabled also.

I found one of these lying in a drawer.

Got it from a vw dealer when I serviced a Golf many moons ago.

Can I use it on the ID3? And if so, what software do I need?

Edit: just searched and see that I can connect to my phone on BT, must give it a go, as I have already the WE CONNECT app on the car.

Very nice, and performance tyre upgrade also, is the sound from the upgraded HK system any good, and is that under floor boot sub, any good ?

Out of all the updates compared to my previous one, the HK system is the least impressive BUT I need to play around with it more.
If it was the standard system, you’d say it was “pretty good” but it doesn’t sound very “full”.
I’ve played around with the preset equalisers, checked out the surround sound mode on it vs stereo mode (surround good on some tracks but stereo better for most so far) but I’ve yet to play around with the manual equaliser outside of turning the sub up. You can make it feel quite bass-y but it feels a bit disconnected from the speakers so far. Will play around some more and let you know.

Heads up display with VW navigation is an unexpected nicety.
Lights are fantastic.
Seats aren’t real bucket seats but very comfortable and I thought the massage would be a gimmick but using it more than expected. Also like the seats moving automatically to make it easier to get in and out.
It does have a new “sports” sound too - it’s gimmicky but I like it. Only there for the start of acceleration though and you don’t really hear it after.
So far am keeping it on individual with settings set to sport outside of suspension which is on comfort. I like driving with it set to sport but it bottoms out easily on speed bumps and small potholes.

Shame about the sound system. Everything else sounds good. Potenzas should be significantly better for sporty driving, not that I will be doing much of that.

I was told 12 weeks which would be next week. Said I'd be informed a few weeks before so looks like it is delayed.

Saw that from your Instagram.

Very close to pulling the trigger on one of these or a Skoda Elroq.

Will be my first electric car so great to get a honest view of how they compare to the pre facelift ID3. How they work as a family car and what your thoughts on how they retain their value will be.

Also how much actual fun it it!

Thanks

fiiiiiinally! Cant believe VW didn’t push these cars out to reviewers before now

It lets the back end loose a little if you put the ESC into "Sport" mode. Nothing too crazy though. It's a separate setting from the "Sport" setting under "Modes." I'm not in my car and can't remember exactly where to find it in the menus. You can make it a vehicle shortcut, though.
