I have a 2016 SE in Pacific Blue with 6,000 miles on it. I'm curious how much does this car actually go for if I were to sell it today? I can't seem to get a price on KBB or TMV probably because there's not enough data?

Slightly confused on this again, it seems like the 5G4-071-126 also fits? Not sure.

Its confusing to me the car tells me a different time that maintenance is required from the manuals. I just want to be within the terms of parameters of the warranty and lease requirements.

Looks like it is happening http://www.autoblog.com/2016/01/09/volkswagen-e-golf-30-percent-range-increase-new-batteries/ Glad I leased and not buy.

I think Juicebox maintains a list of installers.

Has anyone tried the plethora of LED bulbs available as a retrofit for H7 headlights? I imagine you can get a lot of energy savings from them just like LED bulbs for home.

The 200 mile cars are based on all EV platforms. The MQB platform is still overwhelmingly ICE biased even if it had EV uses in mind. I doubt we will see a 200 mile golf until the next major platform change.

Airports have charging stations but if you're gone for a week you probably don't want to occupying that spot for that long. My guess is that the 12v outlet will only charge the lead acid battery up front. In 3-5 years, if enough e-golfs are sold, there's potentially a retrofit higher capacity...

There is a 12v outlet in the back. It would be interesting if someone made a large enough battery that can reverse charge through that. Might be useful if you're parked somewhere for a long time. Let's say airport parking or even camping somewhere.

When I press the Mode button twice, it selects ECO without touching the screen.

Seems like most dealers are getting new stock in late jan early February.

To me waiting 2 vs 4 hours for a refuel are both unacceptable waits if I'm not home or at work. If I'm at either location, then it's irrelevant. The charging price difference between the two are also so minuscule that it doesn't matter to me.

AAA Premier will give you a single 200 mile tow for a calendar year and a few more 100 mile ones. The Premier isn't very much.

From negotiating a lot recently, it seems dealers have anywhere between 2-4k off MSRP room in the 2016 SEs without taking into account any credits or VW bonuses. Not sure how much more/less for the SEL but I imagine the situation is dynamic. The $7500 federal credit is essentially forwarded to...

Maybe you can bring a generator? :lol:

I think VW will tow you to at least 100 miles. AAA will tow you up to 250 miles or something like that. I would think they're all flatbed.

I'm assuming that the roof racks and attachments are the same for the other Mk7 Golfs? Just wanted to double check before I purchased a bunch of things that don't fit. Roof Rack Base: 5G9071151 Surfboard Holder: 000071120HA

Mine were included in the sale, I also have a 2016 SE

The only charging times that matter to me is for a partial fill up so I can get the car home if I'm ever near the limit of range. The last 20% or so in any battery recharge with lithium technology take much longer. Things like this make me rule out EVs for longer trips...

Wel nothing you can do about it now so I say just appreciate what a great car you bought and make sure to file your $2,500 rebate!
