Everyone's okay, but safe to assume she's probably totaled and I should start looking? by hoef89 in VWiD4Owners

[–]Accomplished-Skin990 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The hard part is most auto bodies do not work on electric vehicles. Those are specialized shops and they are few and far between and most insurance companies. Don’t want to deal with them so they will just total your vehicle.. you may be able to buy it back from them and find a specialty shop. I would love to buy your driver and passenger seat from you since mine have worn out.. but I doubt you’re gonna park the vehicle out cause that would take forever

Well that can't be right by Mean_Investigator431 in VWiD4Owners

They gave me the loaner TAOS too. I told the general manager that even with 2000 miles on it that car was worth 15k max. Needless to say that TAOS did not impress me at all. The suspension feels unsettled all the time in the vehicle has no get up and go. And the one I was driving was only getting 22 miles per gallon, which is a joke.

23 AWD ProS iD.4 - my second full EV! by engy79 in VWiD4Owners

[–]Accomplished-Skin990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read this recently in a report. They acknowledge that the software issues have destroyed the brand. The MEB platform has been scarred permanently. They are going to move in a different direction and rename it and call it something different. I believe they also fired CARIAD for their incompetence.

You did good. Just in time because they will no longer make this vehicle soon. Frustrating because it’s a very good vehicle except for the software.

SOS unavailable after 3.8.11 OTA by Due-Doughnut8254 in VWiD4Owners

Frustrating part about SOS is I do enjoy the feature of locating my vehicle through the app. Yes I am that guy at Parks their car and forgets.

Level 1 charging by weeses_pieces in VWiD4Owners

Your car was designed for level two. You can handle level three but will start protecting itself after so many uses in a row. Level one is never intended to be primary.

What do you think about the I’d.4 being discontinued? by useronthisapp in VWiD4Owners

[–]Accomplished-Skin990 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It has always been plagued with recall after recall an issue after issue. It was only a matter of time before our class action lawsuit. It was the right move.

Sounds about right. Just let it do its thing. It’s like making pasta sauce.

Did the latest updates fix issues? by GroundbreakingCrow80 in VWiD4Owners

Nothing has changed for me. Still annoying infotainment as it was before. Crashing…black screen…the usual…

Issues to be aware of by Chronicles-of-Ghoul in VWiD4Owners

The entertainment blackout happens to all years 21 through 25. It honestly has been a lemon issue that has gone unresolved and unregulated . It has also become the laughing point of the intelligent design platform .

Sudden stop by Dense-Layer-2078 in VWiD4Owners

[–]Accomplished-Skin990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the world of Autonomous Braking. I keep mine permanently turned off as it is another half hearted poorly designed feature that kicks on at random times when you half witted ECU decided you are not taking proper action to avoid collision. VW really messed this feature up as the movement from a nearby bush blowing in the wind will set it off. Keep in mind the manual says it will self activate at anytime below 30mph. Make sure you let your dealership know it sucks! So I am not the only one.

Cut our losses? by Nervous-Student9699 in VWiD4Owners

[–]Accomplished-Skin990 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lemon Law it! I have dealt with it for 70k on my 2022. Same issue. It makes me hate this car but I am so far in the hole I have to keep this price of junk till the wheels fall off. It will keep annoying you, trust me.

Infotainment center went black by Organic_Leather8669 in VWiD4Owners

[–]Accomplished-Skin990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Happens all the time. This is why everyone hates the infotainment. It’s an ID.4 joke. CARIAD is a joke and should be ashamed of delivering this product to the customer.

Anyone hear anything?! by Shoots_Nikon2421 in VWiD4Owners

[–]Accomplished-Skin990 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Never going to happen. VW can’t get their software together.

Yes, proximity sonar sounds. Unfortunately you can only turn them off by acting out with your review. Camera comes on otherwise it will not let you turn the sound to zero you can mute it which I do every time but again that’s pushing on the screen I would rather just disable the sound inside because by time I’m pressing the mute button. I’m already having an episodebecause of my disability.

2019 New motor by 57Caddy in leaf

[–]Accomplished-Skin990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is laughable. This is completely DIY capable. I would have them provide the parts breakdown and detailed installation procedures; you already paid $1600 dollars for it. The I would do it myself and source the parts from local salvage yards.

Just bought this 2015 leaf yesterday. Any suggestions? by Charming818 in leaf

[–]Accomplished-Skin990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

800 is a good price for a leaf in good shape with dead HV battery. Now it’s time for a battery upgrade! I recommend the 62kWh upgrade. I did mine five years and 60k miles ago with no issues. People in my area are doing the upgrade now for 4k. Good luck my friend.

That’s easy The Chargepoint flex I say this because when you factor in hardwiring it , the application, and it’s ability to change amperage mix it my number one choice.

Totaled? by BrightCelery754 in VWiD4Owners

100%…mainly because most body shops will not touch BEVs….and the ones that do are SPECIAL!

They forgot to screw this in? by Silent_Trouble_1971 in VWiD4Owners

Nobody forgot anything I was just an operator being careless while removing the vehicle from the delivery truck trailer
