    Delayed charging with Clipper Creek EVSEs fixed

    Yeah, Wendy was my service advisor way back when during my attempts at fixing it. So she got to know my issue quite well. --Carlos V.

    2 2016 SELs with Driver Asst. for Sale, Blue & Silver 15K mi

    When I bought out my lease, I got the title very quickly. In just under a week after I FedExed the payment. The phone agent did try to steer me to use my local dealer, but capitulated quickly when I said I just wanted a simple buy-out. No hassle whatsoever.

    Federal tax credit - Is it dollar for dollar?

    Nope, the EV credit is not a carry-forward credit. You only get 1 year to use as much of it as you are able to.

    2018: Keep, upgrade, swap, or return e-Golf

    I'm the "Other Member", and VW Pasadena was where the Clipper Creek fix was applied. It's not so much a fix but a new charging unit (2016+) that has the fix baked in. There's no fix for the original 2015 charging unit. I still have all the 4-way e-mails between me, Clipper Creek, VW Pasadena...

    2018 e-Golf to be sold Nationwide in USA

    I currently have both an S2000 and the e-Golf in my garage. By comparison, the e-Golf is in no way "stiff". Actually, i like the seats better in my S2000 than the e-Golf, as long as I keep my head off of the headrest.

    French Auto website goes 329km in 2017 eGolf

    In the EU, they don't do Distance over volume, (e.g. Miles per gallon), but volume over distance ( liters per 100km ). 9.3 kWh / 100 km is 9.3 kWh per 62.1 miles, or 6.7 miles/kWh.

    "Power availability display" drops a bit at high speeds

    Especially since they're limited to 85-ish MPH. *grin*

    Home Charging Station help for a new owner

    Pasadena, or the one you bought it from? Pasadena worked with me to get it fixed. If that fails, call up VWUSA and initiate there using the info in my reports. <break> Be careful with EVSE based timers. VW isn't following the J1772 spec closely, and even the 2016/2017 models don't play nice...

    Car Net Health Status Report Way Way Behind

    I just got one today, for an odometer reading of 775 miles. (Car leased on March 2015). That complements one I received last month at an odometer reading of 1700 miles. It's going backwards for me. --Carlos V.

    Which EV Charger did you get?

    Yeah, delayed charging has been flawless for me since then, including charging to a set percentage.

    Silver 2016 SEL w/ Driver-Assist -- New to forum

    I haven't received word yet if there's any official TSB number for the Clipper Creek specific issue. I do know it's baked into the new charging units already, so if he has a relatively new e-Golf, it should have both the general timed charge issue (TSB 2040470) and the Clipper Creek issue taken...

    Non-dealer mechanics for maintenance services? (20k,30K,etc)

    Magnussen-Moss says that if it's required, it's supposed to be "free" (or included in the initial cost of the car). Once they charge for it, the consumer is free to use any other provider while the warranty is in effect and not affect the warranty...

    2015 SEL price

    More than just based on, it IS the PCS-15. From my interaction with Clipper Creek, they told me that they source all the parts to Delphi, and Delphi assembles it and slaps their sticker on it. From what I've seen of the i3, they use a re-badged CC PCS-15 as well.

    Delayed charging with Clipper Creek EVSEs fixed

    I need to run a few more experiments, but it appears the delayed charging issue for Clipper Creek EVSEs is now fixed. It involves changing out the charging module on the eGolf. I've been regularly poking Clipper Creek and VW about the issue with delayed charging for a while, since TSB 2040470...

    Who reserved a Tesla Model 3?

    200,000 units delivered in the US (not world-wide) triggers the phaseout for a particular manufacturer. The 2 quarters after the 200,000 limit is still full rebate, no limit on cars. Then 1 quarter of 1/2 rebate, no limit on cars, then 1 quarter of 1/4 rebate, no limit on cars. So if Tesla...

    Aftermarket LED headlights for SE?

    My S2000 is projector HID and doesn't have auto-leveling. Though that might be because it wasn't required in the 2000-2009 timeframe the car was on the market. It does have rather sharp cutoffs in its projection pattern, though. And yes, I agree, aftermarket headlights without DOT approval...

    Safety Recall 93B4 2015-2016 e-Golf Unexpected Shutdown

    I haven't checked it today, but I had to go back in this morning for the load rating sticker recall as it had to be VIN ordered, and they realized what I was asking for (likely from your info) and applied the TT at the same time.
