VW ID.3

Just an update on the update ☺️ all went well, took exactly 2 hours. After main update there was a mini one (vehicle wallet) which took about 1min. The wallet (manual) is actually quite good, it is sort of interactive. If there is anything further worth noting when I next drive, will update this post.

Thanks for update (on update!). Did you get warnings that camera-based assistance systems were not available during update, as reported on Mein.id forum?

can someone tell me how I know what version I have installed ? Car was delivered last week and was supposed to have had it done. But you never know. thanks

for flip sake - the dealer delayed the delivery of my car by one day to do the update 😒

and wouldnt you know it...... 0792

can someone point me in the direction of signing up for the update ? or do I have to way for the pleb rollout...

thanks

What date was the 2.3 available, i.e. what production week would be getting 2.3 at install?

stock - in fact the car has been sitting around for a while. But I asked if they would do the update in the dealership before I got it. He agreed to it and delayed delivery so they could do it ( or not do it ! )

Nope OTA only

If you log into your My Volkswagen account you should see the manufacturer year. My understanding is that MY 2022 models are shipping with 2.3. It seems that your model is probably MY 2021, as is mine. To put yourself forward for the 2.3 update ahead of general release send an email to id@volkswagen.de with the subject ‘I want OTA’. That’s it, nothing else. I sent my request on July 16 and just got acknowledgment this week. I haven’t received any 2.3 updates yet (it’s in two parts) and am not too concerned about when I do as I seems to bring mostly cosmetic as opposed to functional upgrades. And the dealer currently cannot offer 2.3 update.

Hmmm, would make you think about deactivating the auto-door lock feature. Or does that fail-safe and pulling the handle from inside always work?

They should build the entire car in the same material as the wheel covers 😝

Is anyone having issues connecting android auto and their phone to the speakers of the car? When I get in I connect the phone via the usb cable then have to press app connect-android auto, then click on the Bluetooth or WiFi button randomly before android auto works. For some reason often when I’m connected to android auto the Bluetooth of my phone calls then gets kicked off so if I get a call I have to go into the phone settings and activate Bluetooth there which kicks off the android auto volume when the call ends!

I got the car in early July and it was working ok then. Not sure what I have pressed in the meantime but any advice would be much appreciated.

Congrats!, colour, variant ?

their base model in grey , it was the only ID3 they could get that was on the production line at the time in July but pretty much what we wanted anyway. Looking forward to it now.

Friyay

have had my ID3 a week now and I have to say, while yes the interior looks and feels a bit low rent, exterior feels made of plastic, alot of the tech is really a bit of a gimmick ( have a 1st Max ) and I worry about the range ( the way I drive it ) I have to say its a cracking little car. Its quite, comfortable and quick. It even handles quite well despite its weight. Maybe its coz its new, but I find myself reaching for those keys rather than any of the others which is a good sign - although that might change when I cant charge it this winter 😜
