VW ID.3

I posted some pdfs last week, not sure how to link the post on mobile but it should be in the previous page.

No that was available in Ireland too

The details are in here https://www.volkswagen.ie/idhub/content/dam/onehub_pkw/importers/ie/models/product-guides/2021/march/210407_RB_ID4MY21.pdf

So the ID3 is going back to the garage. The option for timed charging is not there and all the online services are in place. They are going to do a software 'de-bug'.

The second problem is related to the range. When the car came back from 3.2 it was completely wiped, all app services and users gone, it also had a battery module replaced. The GOM has been reading much lower since the update. I would normally be seeing 450-460km range, now its down to 395 and maxed at 402km, no change in commute or temperature (winter is not here yet). I had a loaner 58 kw Born that was estimating 370km range over the month for the same commute, the 77kw should be giving nearly 100km more range.

What type of range are other Tour owners seeing at present ?

Is there anything I should be asking them to check or is there any test I can do to see if something with the battery cells is not right? I think @Rusky rusky may have had a bad cell issue, but I could be mixing them up with another user.

Any advice appreciated.

Our puddle lights are gone too. Not that bothered about replacing though.

handpref our tour range is 450 km at the moment. It has got about 60k km up on it.

I wouldn't be concerned about the GOM, in fact I never even look at it on my car. Has the kWh/100km changed for your usual journeys? Are you getting any less km per % than you were getting before the update?

Since the battery had a module replaced and the software update was done it almost certainly needs to be taken down to <10% SoC and up to 100% at least once (if not twice) so that the BMS can relearn what the battery is capable of.

I'd try that before sending it back to the dealer and losing the car for another few days.

Yes! It was a software problem. Went into dealer and they sorted it quickly.

What was the issue? Is it that the AC is tied to the auto strength?

Since the update, the "Max AC" option is muck. If you need to clear the window after getting in, you have to go into the auto settings and change it high, then go back and hit max AC.

But if you leave it on high then when you go back to auto it's blowing a gale.

Mine is crap now. When in Auto with AC on I notice the windows are fogging up or it's just generally not doing anything. Upping Auto to 2-3 doesn't help as 2 and 3 are the same fan speed and it's still too low. Max AC (which I never needed prior to the update) either doesn't do anything and requires turning climate off and on or when it works barely blows, it's not using max fan speed and struggles to demist the windscreen. It also seems like nothing seems to be coming out if the driver vents at times when upping the temperature, it sounds like it's all going to the windscreen.

Passenger climate is on despite the seat being empty and climate showing 'Eco'

Something definitely isn't right.

il see what tomorrow morning brings but as it stands I’m down about 80km of range -450/460km should be what it’s at and that’s been consistent from new.

Max range of 374km which is less than the 58kw Cupra born loaner used for the same commute.

I can’t even get the photo orientation right below, it keeps moving it sideways ..

What?

The GOM is based on historical driving conditions, you can’t compare two cars like that.

mororway driving at 130kmh v bumper to bumper driving at 20km. Alsomits got colder arranges are dropping around the country

Have continental econtct6 and have had no problems with them in wet conditions. Did long journey from Sligo to Killarney in horrible conditions last week and no problem.

They're on mine too and I haven't had any problems.

You will get a dropdown menu in that spot which allows you to change between "Charge immediately" and "Charge at preferred times".

If you dont have preferred times/locations setup then I guess the menu wont appear.

If you do have them configured and its not appearing then that would sound like a problem. Maybe do an infotainment reset in that case to see if it resolves itself.
