    Slashed Underbody Shield

    My wife ran over something on the highway and the felt shield underneath the battery got slashed pretty badly. Not sure if it’s critical to replace, if so I can’t find it on any parts websites. Don’t even know what to call it. Any advice?

    eGolf as emergency power source

    PG&E is threatening to shut off our power for the next five days to prevent their power lines from starting a firestorm, fast dry winds are predicted. I plan to keep our refrigerator and pond pump (oxygen for the fish) running with power from our van conversion and solar powered tool shed, but...

    New EVgo plans

    Take a look at the new EVgo plans, they seem to have ditched the session fees. My charging just got a lot cheaper.

    $10k discount on i3

    FYI: PG&E just announced a $10,000 discount on a new BMW i3, this is on top of current federal and California incentives. You must be a PG&E customer but I wouldn't be surprised if other utilities are offering the same deal...

    Minor issues/complaints

    Since buying my eGolf in November, I have found a few small, but not insignificant problems with my car. Alas my pre-owned car didn't come with a paper manual and VW's online "Know your VW" manual is sketchy at best. -When reversing, the black Parking Assist window obscures the left half of...

    Wife stole the eGolf, now what?

    I was out of town for 6 weeks, and my wife started driving my eGolf. Now it's pretty clear she doesn't want to give it back. :roll: I'd actually love to give it to her because she deserves it, and in reality the range isn't ideal for my daily drive. Some days are 120 miles. The Model 3...

    Trip Log, East SF Bay to Fresno

    Last week was my first of six weeks of training in Fresno at a new job. I decided this week to drive the eGolf, you know, just for an adventure and to see if it could be done. Let me tell you, range anxiety is no joke. This will be my first time using a public charger. Started the trip...

    Replacement keys..any way to save money?

    Unfortunately I had signed all the paperwork when I realized my used eGolf only had one key. I tried to push the (Honda) dealer to replace it but by then I had no bargaining chips. I need to carry a checklist for these things. I haven't asked a VW dealer for a quote yet, mostly out of fear...

    Intro, dustboy and his 2015 eGolf SEL

    Hey all, I just picked up a 2015 eGolf SEL. Bought it primarily because it's a hoot to drive, and secondarily because it makes a lot of sense for a salesman who drives a daily route within the range. We have 2 other cars that can go longer distances. Looked at the Leaf, Focus Electric, Tesla...
