    thumping noise

    Pretty sure it's the fake spare trunk cover. It's shaped like a drum and bonks around while driving. I shoved a towel under it against the metal and appears to have improved it quite a bit. Tempted to spray a few squirts of spray expansion foam under there.

    Bike rack options?

    Just ordered my C11355 Curt trailer hitch. Can't wait to install it and the Labor Day sale at REI to pick up a rack.

    USB Media-in cable doesn't recognize USB drives.

    Yeah, I knew it was a thumb drive for you by wanted to share my experience as reference. I wonder if that doesn't work, Have you tried to copy mp3s to an SD card and played it from the slots in the glove box? Haven't messed with this yet.

    USB Media-in cable doesn't recognize USB drives.

    The guy at the dealer parts dept was doubtful it would sync thus explaining why it was $20 less than the iPhone lighting cable.

    USB Media-in cable doesn't recognize USB drives.

    I have the same issue with the USB cord. Basically asks as a charge port for my phone only and stream with Bluetooth. Pretty disappointing.

    Battery management

    Anyone notice the new website and app removed the ability to throttle back the charge max to only 10% increments? I would rather charge to 95% to 98% because some days need that extra range but want to protect the battery from 100% SOC degradation.

    tire tread life:

    We burned up our Bridgestone Ecopia EP150 on our Spark EV on the front in 8000 miles. Hope the e-Golf ORM tires last longer than that.

    Converting factory charger to L2

    I'm hoping to do this conversion soon on my Volt EVSE, so I can use it for both cars. Seems pretty straightforward and people on the Facebook forum like the results, even though it tops out at 12A. https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=D2-_pfCtPu4

    EVGo combo fast charger (CCS and CHAdeMO)

    My buddy who also has an e-Golf charged using DC ABB and was able to charge at 50 kW. He went from 22% to 80% in 19 minutes. Gotta love that.

    new carnet web site...

    Man, I thought OnStar website for my Volt was crap but CarNet makes it look like a shining star. At least OnStar uses some logic with user interface, off peak charging and other nice features. Still love our e-Golf but wish the website and app would catch up. I agree with most folks here that...

    Oh I hope this is the case. Just had the firmware updates at the dealer so hope they changed that.
