I'm looking to set up the climate system to activate at a certain time when leaving work. I am unable to find any information on how long the remote climate will remain active after the departure date. If I set it for 5:30pm but don't arrive at the vehicle until 9pm, will the AC run for the...

That price has no bearing on the economics of batteries - its really just an ridiculous markup. An unnamed VW source just quoted the battery price on the ID.3 at $100/kW, which would translate to a $3,500 cost to procure. Even with the ancillary equipment, I can't imagine the eGolf is that...

Have you spoken to VW corporate? The replacement battery is listed on the all dealership parts websites at US$27,000. So the dealerships are probably just passing that along. It cannot possibly cost $27,000 for VW to produce this battery. They should be able to charge a dealership less to...

The current JuiceBox 40 with the sleeker handle is not any better. Takes a good amount of force at the correct angle to get it to click. I noticed you are new to the forum - is your car brand new? I had the same issue when my car was new. I've found it gets better over time. Whether that is...

I am pissed off for you. $36,000 is crazy. The battery probably costs $200/kW x 35kW, or $7,000 without markup. Work can't be more than a day (lift car, unscrew battery, out with the old, in with the new). Here is how I would attempt resolve this: 1) Tell them to return your car or you are...

It is a big seller in Norway too, behind only Tesla. https://cleantechnica.com/2019/08/16/tesla-model-3-12-4-of-all-norwegian-vehicle-sales-january-july-2019/ I think Norway is an example of an advanced market very penetrated by EVs (and charging). With familiarity people overcome their...

There is no requirement that you wait three months. Your dealer asked you to wait three months because they do not receive their VW incentive payment ($5K) until the loan has been outstanding for three months. They likely would not have sold you the car at the price agreed unless they believed...

FIRST The JuiceBox plug does not fit as cleanly as the Delphi charger into the charging port. I have to push mine with some force to get it to click. They key is to make sure the little LED is displaying green, not yellow. SECOND My sure your JuiceBox is set to "Charge Now" on the first...

My driveway is on a slight incline, and when I reverse out I hear the same brief crunching noise. I assume it is a physical brake engaging/disengaging, but never looked into it further.

I have been looking at the floor mats and trunk liners, but have held off on my purchase for a couple of reasons. I am interested in a few things: 1) Do the floormats have edge lip on them? I have been very happy with the Monster rubber mats that came with my Tiguan. They are deep enough to...

Just bought a 2019 eGolf. A few questions: - Hopefully will not experience any issues. But if I do, which dealers have the best service techs trained in eGolfs? I have serviced my ICE VW at Lasher Downtown. Convenient but a small shop. - Anyone attempted the trip to Tahoe via I-80? I...

Did $10,500 off in Sacramento this weekend. Financing required. Sounds like the dealers have access to $2,500 incentive on the car and $5,000 on the financing from manufacturer.
