    Send Complaints to VW

    I found this email address not any more helpful than the carnet customer care number. Here is an example: i had a few attempts at talking to 877-820-2290 about the delayed charge issue, but i found the people there to be of not much help. It seems these issues need to be brought up to a higher...

    EVSE "Chargers" with delay of start feature

    Did you turn off (disabled) any and all of the delayed start times (3) on carnet? Is the instant charge LED (top one) on the charge terminal of the e-Golf lit before you plug in? What happens for me is that when i fist plug in, the Versicharge starts charging immediately. Then i set the delay...

    EVSE "Chargers" with delay of start feature

    I have a Versicharge and am very happy with it. (see my other post here about my bad experience with the Bosch PowerMax). The delay feature on the VersiCharge seems to work ok for me. I can check again in the next few days but i think i tried the maximum delay time (8?).

    Change default brake recuperation level?

    It would be nice to get a more "official" confirmation but my dealer technical person told me that they told them at the dealer training that "B" engages "something else in the system" and it is not recommended to drive with it all the time. According to him "B" is not just recuperation step 4...

    Garage door opener?

    I too find it very sad that VW opted to commit homelink from the US e-Golf. (don't get me started on the other things they left out). I'm contemplating going the smart phone route of an internet connected garage door opener to work around this issue.

    EVSE "Chargers" with delay of start feature

    I am using the Siemens Versicharge with my e-Golf (replaced a dead Bosch PowerMax) and it works great with both the e-Golf's built in (CarNet) delay as well as with the charger's delay functions.

    220 Charger

    When i first got my e-Golf i purchased the Bosch PowerMax on Amazon and installed it myself. All in the total cost was ~$600. After 3 charges the Bosch charger died and i returned it to Amazon for a full refund. Then i did some research and found that this is a common problem with the Bosch as...

    Same here. No luck removing it. Tried various chemicals. Please post if you find out how to remove.

    Change default brake recuperation level?

    I would also love to know how to do this. I prefer to always drive at highest recuperation level as i like the feel better (similar to BMW i3). Always driving on "B" is probable;y not a good idea so setting the default D+ ;even would be great. I had hoped it is stored in memory with the...
