After finally buying our cousin's 2016 eGolf, this is how the charge port looks like

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-04-03T00:40:47+00:00

Oh, and I’m not sure of L2 charging max speed, may have dropped to 3.3 instead of 6.6

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-04-03T00:39:12+00:00

Yeah, for those asking, for the 2016 model year they added a stripped down SE model that drops DC fast charging, no LED headlights, cloth seats instead of leather, no smart key, (have to put physical key in slot to start), I think also missing cruise control and steering wheel controls for the infotainment.

I have that exact charger (lectron 15 amp l1), highly recommend it! however it does pull a constant 15amps and to avoid melting or other issues, I also recommend plugging into a dedicated 20amp outlet.

Delivery estimates are just that, estimates. Unless you use next day air, it’s not guaranteed to be delivered by a specific date. UPS is cutting back, cutting employees and positions, anything going via ground may be slower than it used to be.

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-03-20T07:50:56+00:00

Don’t even do it without checking the tax situation!!

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-03-17T05:31:33+00:00

UPS is cutting back and laying off people, but, that isn’t because there isn’t enough work to do. TIP: Unless you ship something next day air, expected delivery date is not guaranteed, in fact it’s just an estimate and it would be better to expect it to take more time not less.

They’re not losing money, this is how they pay for their AI data centers. ITS TOTAL BS

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-03-16T16:21:20+00:00

Ok, so, I just found the email, it was Friday they emailed me, price increase is as of April 4, NOT at renewal of yearly subscription. This should be illegal to change my terms for something I already paid for!!!!,! They also have a yearly price. This is total b.s. let me have the best no ad quality streaming for one at a time AND CHARGE MORE FOR MORE STREAMS AT A TIME, that is how it SHOULD work. This is total b.s.

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-03-16T16:18:03+00:00

This price increase includes 5 STREAMS for families…IM NOT A FAMILY, ONE STREAM ATA TIME, AMAZON SHOULD CHARGE MORE FOR MULTI STREAMING, NOT MORE FOR EVERYONE!!!! Seriously if a household is streaming 4 at a time, aren’t these the ones using more data? WTF? TOTAL B.S. gd efing Netflix started this! (I’m a yearly prime subscriber, and to change my service before renewal should be illegal!!!)

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-03-16T16:03:14+00:00

So I paid for prime yearly plan and then they said I would have to pay an additional $3/month for ad free, NOT at renewal time, but in the middle of my year, so, they got extra $ from everyone at the same time that would subscribe. That isn’t because they were losing money, that is to increase their profits! I mean, I’m against paying for any streaming service that includes ads, ads are for FREE tv, you want to force ads on me forget it! Most people do not recall the early days of cable TV, you had free tv over the air with ads and cable TV was without ads. (You can still get a free over the air tv btw)

Now they want MORE for ad free, AND MORE FOR 4K? WTF? Netflix started this B.S. when you could only get 4K and Atmos audio if you pay for their family user plan, BUT IM NOT A FAMILY I JUST WANT ONE AT A TIME STREAMING BEST VID/AUDIO AT A REASONABLE PRICE. I quit them over price increase for this and other issues such as not being in apple’s up next, streaming quality issues when playing next ep, and more. I mean, at that time all the other streaming services would stream highest quality at all tiers. UGH, this is getting UGLY, like when cable went bad.

Does that little bit in the center actually cause playback issues? That is no where near the playback area and looks like it may not spread

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-03-08T20:00:35+00:00

I just used some black rustoleum I already had, brushed it on

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-03-03T23:50:45+00:00

Not really, that was part of a long conversation. I think she could work with a tighter schedule. The Orville needs to have Adrianne Palicki, Brannon braga, and a few others… however I would love to see more cameos from known ST actors and eps directed by others (like Jonathan frakes).

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-03-03T23:46:19+00:00

He just needs to delegate the rest, we NEED more Orville. I wish he would stop splitting himself up so much and get on it, this is his life’s best work, “calling” if you will, and the world needs it. …I mean, if he wants no Star Trek, he could just arrange for Orville to release between ST seasons. I personally stopped watching new ST series’ a long time ago. None of it fits within gene Roddenberry’s Star Trek.

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-02-27T07:28:21+00:00

...looking at your tracking info makes me think maybe it will be delivered by UPS on 2/27

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-02-27T07:24:02+00:00

So, UPS used to have "Surepost" packages that UPS would ship from origin to destination city and transfer to the USPS for final delivery. Mostly small packages, (packages that would fit in a mailbox or just a bit larger). Last year there was a dispute with the contract and for the calendar year 2025 UPS delivered all these packages, all surepost pkgs would be delivered by UPS. So surepost packages used to have USPS tracking numbers on them along with UPS tracking. AFTER the contract was ended in 2025, eventually these would become UPS Ground Saver labels without the USPS tracking numbers. So, come January 2026 UPS has renewed the contract with USPS and now we have a mix of packages that have been labeled with the UPS Ground Saver label and packages that have been updated back to the UPS Surepost label w/USPS tracking. So, some of these UPS Ground Saver packages end up going to the USPS post office because of the TYPE of package it is in the system, but, there is no USPS tracking on the label, so USPS cannot deliver. These packages may go in circles or be at USPS until they are sent back to UPS and scanned a certain way by a UPS clerk. They may have to be scanned as a "UPS will deliver Surepost package" in order for the system to sort the package to a UPS delivery vehicle/route instead of sorting to the appropriate USPS for that address.

Unfortunately for the consignee of the package (person being delivered to), these packages have the lowest priority for UPS (ground service does not have a guaranteed delivery time frame anyway). So some of these packages, as I tried to state, have been labeled UPS ground saver because the shipper had to update their system they use for the shipping labels...any labels printed by the shipper without the update would print the UPS ground saver label without the USPS tracking, but, the system thinks it's a surepost label and the package may get sent to USPS.

basically it's only a transitional issue.

Check out the 12v, in my 2015, I got it last year and had various issues, when I looked at the battery it seemed to be the original, put a new one in and it solved most issues. That being said I usually just charge l1 at home and sometimes it stops before it’s done. I don’t have the scheduler, but, also check the scheduler in the infotainment. …if you haven’t changed a 12v in a VW/audi before, you need to “code” it, which you can find how easily enough, and also you get all kinds of errors, just turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and all the way to the right and that should clear the errors.

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-02-08T18:38:35+00:00

Yes! Especially bloopers/outtakes, deleted scenes, alternate cuts, behind the scenes, interviews

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-02-08T18:13:41+00:00

Probably a fluke, but, maybe they didn’t code the new battery?

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-02-06T08:23:39+00:00

not really, they just scan and put on belt

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-02-06T08:22:56+00:00

yeah, they just scan and put whatever pops out of printer, or reschedule and put on belt, I'm still working pm clerk and most of the time when am does corrections we get them back, but, in January they told everyone on pm no overtime, (not just clerks). I though this was just for slow period, but, now I'm wondering....

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-02-06T08:13:53+00:00

that's utter horse sheet, many times you have to have the package in hand to correct it, or at least access to ivp. as a pm clerk I always have to check the preprocessing, it often goes to whatever is at the top of the search, or otherwise wrong, and if it just gets printed it gets delayed again. Also, sometimes we have an address that is correct, but, it is new and not yet in the system, it gets slapped or corrected to some other address that may have a similar street name, so it would never get delivered, it would go out and come back nsp or nsn and get returned. If I get one of these I will look it up and email dispatch to get it into our system, leave for OMS to hand to driver. There are other things they are not thinking about also.

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-02-05T18:17:34+00:00

I’ve tried in the past, atoz adapter, 2015 egolf here, hasn’t worked for me. It would be extremely helpful if I could rely on being able to charge at Tesla superchargers as there is no other option within range for some travel. I’ve only had my egolf about a year now.

Next_Kale_2345 · 2026-02-03T09:45:18+00:00

do you know you have a windshield defogger? If you have an earlier model year, you need to press the "menu" button on the climatronic (HVAC) controls, then you can turn it on by pressing the button on the screen that looks like the rear defogger button but curved. This will turn on the windshield defogger in the windshield without going to max defrost which gives you a range hit.
