We have been happy with our Zener ($169, Amazon, B075GJK2S9) for going on five years.

Wow, message thread from the past – I see that "4hhsumm" asked how the 2019 fared – well here we are at almost 5 years and still love it. And NO ParkPilot messages.

thank you!

Thanks for the info. Could you please give sources/ part numbers for those hold-down items? My full-size (and 41 psi) tire pushed down into place with very little bending of the rear panel in the recess! Happy with that.

OK! We now have tucked away in the rear spare tire indentation (without any cutting!) a 5th Ecopia EP422 Plus, on a 5Q0-601-027-BS-03C Wheel, plus a simple bottle jack sitting inside the spare wheel m(wrapped in bubble-wrap to avoid rattles). Only lost about 1.5 to 2 inches of floor height...

Wife has experienced a very fleeting red ATTENTION popup in the dashboard speedo area. Disappeared so fast she had no chance to catch any other text or symbol. Hard to catch this when paying attention to city traffic! Happened some months ago as well. We find NOTHING in the owner’s manual...

Bought TR413. Fits fine, hard to tell from what came on car. Seems pretty standard. Still can't imagine why VW lists only their $44.40 item 1K0601361B

Finally received 5Q0-601-027-BS-03C wheel today. Valve stem hole is 0.45 inches in diameter. Does anyone know what stems will fit?

I am trying to put together a full-size spare tire. Have ordered 5Q0-601-027-BS-03C wheel. Now trying to determine proper tire valve stem to fit that wheel. The ones on the car are rubber (they flex) with plastic caps. My searches keep coming up with VW part 1K0601361B at prices from 50 down to...

I received a seller message – "5Q0-601-027-BT-03C is for a temporary spare 3.5x18 ET25. 5Q0-601-027-BG-03C is for a full size tire 6x16 ET48" Quite an obscure numbering system!

Thanks for reply. Yes, we want a full drivable spare. in 4+ years of e-Golf ownership, mostly wife driving to/from her office, we have had at least 5 flats and 2 required replacing tire. Road debris (screws, nails) every time. No spare is not a good policy for her. I won't mind the slight...

For our 2019 e-Golf, I would like to obtain a steel wheel for a spare, preferably one that would be suitable as a driving tire. Searching various sources leads me to confusion as to part number. I find these options among others – 5Q0-601-027-BG-03C listed as "16, w/ e-Golf" at $139 (MSRP...

What is the expected voltage reading for the 12 V battery? VARTA ... Ours seems to be jumping around quite a bit 12.24 to 12.30 or so Charger is plugged into car, but scheduled to not start until early morning. Car is 22 months in service, only about 5000 miles. One reason for concern is wife...

We were able to save the VW online manual (in Safari browser) as a WebArchive. Then loaded that into an iPad app (GoodReader) which accommodates many formats. Works great!

I don't know about the Leaf, but in the e-Golf the lower dial on the right (#6 in the image) shows the battery charge in 1/16 increments – image: https://www.dropbox.com/s/1cuf0cpph7t8mqi/Instrument%20Overview.jpg?dl=0

The e-manager settings are like this – image: https://www.dropbox.com/s/v3n9k68pertsof8/2019%2008%2027%20set%20for%200600%20ready.JPG?dl=0 For the last several weeks it has, indeed, been starting so as to be ready at about 6 AM – image...

Our 2019 e-Golf SE, about 8 weeks old, just caused some concern. Wife was driving home from errands, stopped at mailbox near our house. When she started up, there was a terrible scraping sound from somewhere in the front end. Seemed more from left front wheel area. Sounded like sheet metal...

Thanks tp both of you for the responses. I think that miscalculation of finishing time is part of it, but then it sure started late ... Anyway the 120V EVSE is now stored in the trunk, and we are happy with a $199 16A Level2 EVSE from Zencar (Amazon B075GJK2S9) which fits a 20A 240V receptacle...

We recently returned a fulfilled lease on our 2016 e-Golf after 30 months. Loved it except for the occasional 'Park Pilot is currently unavailable' – instead of backup camera. Complained to VW and dealer. Had to live with it. The car did not even have the Park Pilot system. Solution – 2019...

We have had this 2019 e-Golf for just 3 weeks. The 2016 e-Golf that we turned back seemed to operate correctly. With the 2019's supplied level 1 charger, we used the manager to have the charge complete by 7AM. But, It seems to keep going until 8AM. I am wondering if there is a logic flaw that...
