    Does it automatically bring up the android auto screen when you start the car? I think I've got android auto set to auto start so it goes straight into it


    I find the music is a bit inconsistent whether it starts automatically or not but I think that's a Spotify thing


    Podcasts seem to always start automatically which means my kids occasionally get to hear part of Well There's Your Problem or something similar unsuitable

    I am refusing to learn how the radio works for that exact reason 😁

    The departure time should figure out when to start heating. I think mine was preheating for nearly 30 mins during that cold snap

    Just charged my ID.4 at one of Electric Irelands public network charge points.

    Forgot about the massive price increase from today €0.509/kwh.

    I did the math on it (my wife drives a diesel) and at these rates the gap between diesel vs EV efficiency is closing.

    €60 Diesel Car = 416kms

    €40 EV = 450kms

    You would want to be mad to pay €0.509/kwh at a 11kw charge point.

    But how much is the diesel you refine at home Vs the electricity you charge off of at home?

    I guess the idea is anyone regularly using the AC chargers will get a subscription and benefit from marginally lower rates


    One trick is if you've signed up for the paid We Charge plans, I think one of them is cheaper for AC than ESB rates

    I'm currently on the monthly DD membership plan with Electric Ireland which is the lowest rate plan they have to offer.

    I think the trick is to avoid Electric Irelands charge points at all cost till they lower their rates and stick to my home chargers nightly rate of €0.20kwh

    €0.509kwh on a 11kw charge point is outrageous!

    first post in this thread, can the ID4 be charged at a rapid charger or is the max it will charge at 11kWh?

    also, earlier this week i drove home for work, and had no sound whatsoever in the car. no radio, sensors, even indicator sounds. now, it was the most economical drive i ever had since I got the car, but have no idea what happened. It was fine again later in the day. Passed a VW dealer on the way home but they didn't want to take a look, the mechanics went home 'just a few minutes earlier'...has anyone had any issue like that before?

    yeah, mine reset during the week as well. internal gremlins, i'd say.

    Max AC charging is 11kw.

    Max DC charging is 125kw, i think.

    Happened to me once, letting the car shut down and restart fixed it


    The max you'll get at an AC charger is 11kW, if the charger is 3 phase. Most public AC chargers are 3 phase, but home chargers are almost all single phase so will give 7kW

    On a DC charger using the CCS plug you'll get 125kW max, or 135kW if you're on the latest software

    However there are many factors which feed into how much power you'll actually get. First off, you'll need to ensure the charger can supply that much. Many ESB chargers are 50kW max, anything over that is called a High powered charger (HPC)

    Ionity are typically 175-350kW so they should be able to charge the car at maximum power.

    The other factors are battery temperature, and the amount of charge you started with. You'll need the battery to be warm to charge efficiently, so typically after a long enough motorway drive the battery will have self heated enough. On cold days however the battery might need to be heated which will slow down the charging at first

    The lower the battery charge, that faster your charging speed. Generally you need to be below 10% to get full power. I've gotten it once when I plugged into Ionity at 8% battery after 6 hours of motorway driving, it was pretty awesome to see the screen showing 125kW of power going into the car 😁

    If you arrive with a higher SoC the car will lower the charging power to protect the battery

    So I noticed earlier that the navigation now gives a little animation at motorway exits showing which lane you should be in


    Is that new in 3.0? I'm pretty sure it wasn't there before

    It's a good idea but it has two flaws, it's very distracting and seems a bit random at times picking the lane if there's more than one lane exiting

    I also noticed the ID light will light up on the side it wants to change lane and the car told me to move one lane left one time


    She's an even stricter backseat driver than my wife 😂

    How do I tell what current version software the car is on? Car was in with VW for 2 weeks in October getting the software update. They seemed to run into a lot of issues. Have noticed no difference at all in anything software wise!

    Sounds like you got the update so.

    Settings, info, software versions (something like that) and version 0912 is 2.4. 0910 is 2.3.

    Need some help here.

    3.0 part 1 OTA started downloading on 24/12 and finished on 25/12.

    I can see the battery percentage and temp in the view behind the wheel now, so looks like it downloaded properly.

    The system information is showing ID,Software 3.0.0 and Software 0362.

    I drove the car yesterday and the infotainment kept resetting - thought this might be to do with the update so didn't take much notice. When I parked up for the evening got the update available on the exit screen so presumed this is part 2.

    Got into the car today and Software 0362 still showing, should this be 0363 after part 2?

    Infotainment still resetting so am guessing the 12v is the problem.

    Has anyone else had this happen - ID.4 1st 2021 ?


    Haven't been able to set the S-PIN or download any of the new tiles given the above...

    So mine effectively factory reset after the update, and I had to sign in as a user to get a lot of the functions to work properly


    Wasn't getting constant reboots of the infotainment though. I've a 1st Max FWIW

    Hi guys, has anyone experienced any gps lock issues with their Navigation app in the infotainment system?

    Up until yesterday mine was working fine but now my ID.4 is not getting a GPS lock when I open the app.

    Most of the time my car is showing up as in a field somewhere and consequently I am getting a message displayed on the info system "no data is currently available for this area"

    ie. No speed info, traffic info etc etc for the area.

    My cars ID. Software is 3.1.0

    Thanks in advance.

    Had our first issue with the new ID4 yesterday,

    lowered down the rear passenger window and it looks like the glass has come off the rail or something.

    All I get now is that grinding noise and the glass doesn't move, I managed to slide it up by hand manually and it seems to be staying up for now.

    Anyone had this happen on their ID4?

    Its the first issue we have had now and had the previous ID4 just over a year without any issues so I wouldn't say it's a massive issue.

    All cars will have little niggles, will be interesting to see how long it takes vw to fix it now.

    Well if we are on the subject of niggles, my tail light seems to pop out of place. I clicked it back in but recently I noticed the whole light bar on the back has done the same. A wider gap running along rear
