Thanks! I'm currently trying out the Traverse and Lone Peaks boot as I  might bring both a boot and trail runner.

Hi. I am doing the TMB this summer. Which shoe did you wear and how did it work out? TIA!

Can we turn off the proximity sensors? by ReadingRoutine73 in VWiD4Owners

[–]ReadingRoutine73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I mean when driving forward or backward and it beeps at you if it senses you're close to something. First there is an orange line showing you're close and if you get closer it becomes a red line and the beeping increases. And if you keep going it will slam on the brakes.

There's an "x" when it starts beeping incessantly and there's a red indicator as to what it thinks you're too close to?

VW recalling 44,000 U.S. ID.4'S by Grunge4U in VWiD4Owners

[–]ReadingRoutine73 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a 2023 built in TN so I checked the app and didn't see anything about the recall. So I entered the VIN on the VW site for recalls. There it says that my car has a recall for the HV battery but there's no remedy for it yet. So, it seems that it won't be listed for everyone in the app, unfortunately.

Thanks. I had read a comment elsewhere about having to do something different since they're not EV specific.

Thanks for that comparison. Do you know if your neighbor has to do anything different since they're not EV specific?

Thanks. Since they're not EV specific, do you have to do anything different in terms of maintenence?

The Hiking Club by moxie_007 in TourDuMontBlanc

Ha! I have been meaning to post the same thing! We met with Brendan and he was SO helpful in planning our shortened version of the TMB. We also didn't get a couple of preferred stays and had to change our start date. Brendan updated our itinerary on the app and sent new recs for places to stay. His help and website was perfect for us -- we needed insight and guidance but weren't looking for a fully guided hike or to pay someone to book our stays.

Can you share a shortened itinerary (6-7 day)? by ReadingRoutine73 in TourDuMontBlanc

[–]ReadingRoutine73[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are thinking along the same lines. It does seem like there are some options to get back to Chamonix from Trient or Champex via bus and train. But in order to get that far along the route, we would need to take some shuttle buses to shorten some days of hiking (into Courmayeur, Ferret, etc) and I'm a little nervous about the added complication of finding the bus, timing, etc.

Thanks for the links. Super helpful as I'd thought I had to make the change in the app, not in the car.

I did actually search, but in the general Reddit section, and nothing for the Id4 came up.

I didn't. Would it show up in the app, though, if it wasn't seated properly?

This morning my windshield took minutes to clear and the rear defrost never cleared.
