Thanks forbin404, that would explain the issue.

Thanks for the replies and the video links, great info. I have 14k on the ODO, should I go in for the Inspection or is it waste of money?

Ah, that could definitely explain. Thanks, but I just created a new thread on the topic http://www.myvwegolf.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1271, guess was doing that while you were posting the reply, I do have another issue with charging and departure times, would be interesting to learn about...

I have a few niggles I want feedback on: 1. Sometimes in "Recuperation Mode 3" or drive mode "B" the car does not do full regenerative braking, I know this because when it is working properly and I let go of the accelerator the car starts to slow down and the Miles/kWh indicator goes up, however...

The "Inspection Now!" message just came on, initially it was asking for an upcoming "oil service", lol, but now it just says the said message. What are folks doing, I have seen responses indicating folks have just reset the indicator. Any experience with taking to the $tealer? I do have a few...

Lol, I am getting this service reminder as well, it was amusing to say the least but is it that difficult to program a computer to know it is installed in an electric vehicle? BTW, are you folks ignoring it and resetting the service indicator? I am debating if I should take it to the dealer, I...

I just got a quote for 6.5kW solar system and they were over $24k! I think I need to shop around a bit and see what I can do. I want to buy and not be stuck leasing/buying at only a 20% discount.. I had to upgrade my service panel (the one that the meter plugs into) to do both the 240V charger...

Thanks for creating the spreadsheet, I will run my numbers to see what works for me. What rate plan were you on before EV?

You should look into seat covers and an SE might cost you less than the extra on just 1 month payment. You can get the 7.2 kW charger on an SE as an add on for 1600.

I am not getting any definitive answers to this question hence this thread. I have seen on Tesla boars that many were using E-9 tiered plan, but it was replaced by the EV-A and EV-B plans, which are essentially time of use plans. They would have been great but I work from home and in summers the...

Thanks I just got solar, but 4.5kW for 17k, I went with a larger known outfit due to their warranties, but 6kW for 17K is a fantastic price, hence piqued my interest.

I was tempted not to move to solar, but with the federal and local incentives I'll be paying 9K out of pocket for a 6kwh system ($17K quote - 30% fed - .50 cents/w local). The utility company will buy back excess for a little over 5 cents per kwh. Can you share the details on which company you...

Netmetering is supposed to work that way, you send all the electricity you generate to the grid and then whatever you use comes from the grid. The netmetering subtracts your usage from your generation and charges for the remaining usage. Essentially the utility is acting as your Tesla Powerwall...

There was a $1500 conquest incentive from VW that expired on the 4th. I just got into an SE lease for $146/month (incl. tax) $2500 down (get that back under CVRP) 10k miles/year. I got the last one from the dealer. Most other dealers in SF Bay Area either did not have any e-golf in stock or were...

Though I was initially looking only at Fiat 500, MB B and Ford Fusion, Focus and started looking at the Golf only at the last minute, I was aware of the SEL having the 7.2kW charger. However there were no SELs to be found in the SF Bay Area. I got interested in the Golf only because of their low...
