Does anyone know if there is a way to prevent the AC from coming on when the recirculation button is pressed? This "feature" is very annoying and inappropriate especially when the cabin heater is activated. I had a Civic Hybrid that had the same feature and there was a way to disable it by a...

The dealer did replace the master cylinder on my 2019 e-Golf SE with AEB when it only had a few miles on it under warranty. They did this because the AEB was giving multiple false alarms. It never applied the brakes, but the visual and audio alarms would go off whenever a guard rail was nearby...

How are you measuring how much battery capacity is left on your car? My 2019 with 45K miles on it still shows 125+ miles of range when fully charged if the ambient temperature during charging is between 70F and 95F. Also it is getting about 4.2 miles/ kWh of efficiency.

How long have the original VW 12V batteries been lasting for owners? Mine is 4.5 years old and 45K miles and is still showing a green battery health indicator. The dealer is offering a $10 discount on a new battery and I would prefer to replace it before it gives me any trouble.

Where are you finding this information on a 12% buffer specifically for the 35.8kWh battery? I don't see it anywhere in the manual? If the 12% is really true I can stop charging to "90%", since there is already a 12% buffer "built in".

We really like our 2019 e-Golf. It has 38K miles on it and still gets 125 miles+ of range and shows 4.5 miles/ kWh on the extended range touch screen display. Why do you say only 31.5kWh of usable battery? My understanding from the manual is you get the full 35.8kWh unless you set the charge...

I haven't experienced the backlash you mention, however I'm concerned with the reliability of the CV joints and other drive train components with the high torque the motor puts out. Does anyone know if VW beefed up the drive train to accommodate for the high torque the motor puts out? I have a...

The Bridgestone Ecopia 422's on my 2019 e-Golf only lasted 30K miles. This is probably due to my lead foot, the more powerful 100kW (135hp) motor and the heavier battery (36kW). The tires performed well for me. I want to point out that the recommended air pressure is 41psi and the OEM tires have...

My 2019 e-Golf SE with DAP has a rattling sound in the dash very similar to what you describe. Yes, it only happens when the car is moving and it doesn't take much of a bumpy road to make it happen and it is darned intermittent. It also has the weird "spring" sound when the brakes are applied...

I took my 2019 e-Golf SE with DAP to the dealer to get them to fix the inaudible Pedestrian Warning sound. Well, it turns out it is actually working, but it is so quiet that you have to be outside of the car and close to it to hear it! It is a strange "whirring" sort of like a "UFO landing"...

I have exactly the same sound coming from my 2019 e-Golf SE with Driver Assistance Package. Thanks for the recording of it! It started happening after I took it to the dealer to fix the front collision avoidance system which was constantly alerting of an eminent collision when no other car was...

On page 170 of my 2019 e-Golf manual it talks about an "electronic engine sound" which the car is supposed to make at speeds up to 18MPH. My car makes no such sound. Three times I have had people walk right into the path of my car in a parking lot because they don't hear any sound from the car...

I own a 2019 e-Golf SE w/ DAP and here are my observations and comments; 1) FCW (Forward Collision Warning)/ AEB (Autonomous Emergency Braking) does not work as the manual indicates it should!!! a) FCW gave me 3 "false positives"; gives flashing red visual warning and audible "ding" when no...

Hi All, Hopefully, this information will be useful to those considering buying a 2019 e-Golf... I bought a 2019 e-Golf SE with DAP (Drivers Assistance Package, which consists of Automatic Cruise Control, front and rear accident avoidance and adjacent lane change warning). I paid $26,500.00 (not...

I have a 2019 e-Golf SE and I haven't been able to get either the "departure time" or "off peak" charging to work. Most of the time the charging will start as soon as the plug is connected. Other times the charger will cycle on and off every few minutes; really clicking but no power delivered...

My 2019 e-Golf SE has the same problem, only these modes have never worked on my car. I've owned the car for two months. I'm trying to get the "departure time" and or the "off peak" charging to work. Below is what I have set and the car starts charging as soon as I plug it in even though the...

I bought a white one because they stay cooler during the hot days, plus they "look cleaner" longer and body work is easier to blend in. (Unfortunately, we seem to have a lot of parking lot hit and runs in our area). I have a Clipper Creek HCS-40 EVSE which leaves all the charge control to the...

We bought a 2019 e-Golf SE back in late May and have 2K miles on it and we just love it! We have driven it during several 100F+ days here in the Sacramento area with the AC on, and occasionally going up hills on the freeway at 65MPH with no degradation in power. If you are light on the...

Update... I did purchase a 2019 e-Golf and I'm very happy to report I have driven it with the AC set at a comfortable temperature on multiple 100F+ days here in Sacramento with no performance degradation, even going up the steep freeway grade near my home at 65MPH. I noticed the floor above...
