    Official “what am I doing wrong” charging thread

    Yeah ok. But I just went back to re set the departure time and car never stopped charging ... I should’ve probably unplugged and re plug the car and see if the bottom light would’ve turned on near the charge port

    Common problems

    Common problems

    Really dumb question about charging

    This thread should be stickied on top. As more people are buying e-golfs, these questions will come up more and more often

    Battery degradation 1.3 kw vs 3.3Kw vs 7.2

    I have a somewhat related question. I want to buy a used 2017 e-Golf. What scan/test can I do to see the health of the battery pack? Assuming I have a Vag-com cable and laptop
