VW ID.4

I've mine booked in for diagnostics on April 10th. Child lock button wont engage at all for me now and sometimes passengers can open the back door from the inside which might be a safety concern if there was a crash.. you'd think by now they'd have sorted this on new cars

the warranty is 2 years+ year 3 or 90,0000km whichever comes first.

Neighbour had one of these a week and VW had tow truck come and collect it and they had to find there own way to Limerick for the replacement car. No question of driving it in Good introduction to BEV.

Could have gone for the bz4x but VW's 0% finance was pretty much unbeatable.

Corolla hybrid has become very popular as a taxi but to my mind it's too small in the front, I've seen many passengers struggling to get in.

Possibly the better option would have been a Toyota Camry which , hopefully in a couple of years is what I'll get next, or even the rav4

Can I say, I think it’s important to note,I’ve had a 261 ID4 for nearly a month now,loving it so far,no issues,doors open and close as normal 😆

I drove to Dingle and back from Wicklow on one full charge each way,having 30 and 38% battery left at either side after each journey

I had. a VW diesel for nearly 20 years and spent feck all on it

From reading,the serious issues have been with ID4’s from 2020 to 2024

The current model should have those ironed out,I do get how anyone with one of the faulty cars would be angry but I’m not going to sit here and listen to people saying that the new models are a disaster with no evidence

What I’m driving at the moment I’m so far extremely happy with and I spoke with 3 other ID 4 owners with models from various years before deciding

My experience with VW has been good

I’m not one of these people who goes onto Tripadvisor and keeps scrolling until I find a 1 star review

For there to be a serious mess today,there had to be new widespread problems and the fixes would have to be not incorporated into the new builds

I’m also wondering are some VW dealers/garages better than others at customer service,the answer is yes but that’s true of all brands

2026 model here, and sometimes the infotainment system will not connect to Android Auto properly. Spotify streams audio fine, but in the screen where you should see Spotify + Google Maps side-by-side it's all black. I have to give a hard reboot on it to get back to normal.

Anyone else having the same?

You're lucky, on my second ID.4, both had issues with door handles.

just booked my 2022 ID4 into Frank Keane for a "Major Patform Update" 97GY what ever that code means. Hoping it brings me out of 3.0.0 and starts OTA dropping to bring me up to date.

The faster you can get out of VW the better.

Plenty of choice in the market now and from manufacturers that seem to care about their customers.

Yes, even though this is not entirely free. This is actually an offer from Flogas in partnership with VW, and they require you to move to one of their EV plans for at least 1 year. Also they take your SEAI grant on that.

However you wouldn't expect them to offer a charger that simply doesn't work with the car you are purchasing, that is non sense.

I'm going to get it solved somehow, even if it requires some hassle.
