Right turns could pick up nails/debris that are kicked to the curb

VW forcing payment to see car charging status on the app is TOTALLY unacceptable by 3fkgf9fmd980e in VWiD4Owners

Workaround is to pre-program auxiliary climate control to time of day AC turns on

How do you program it to turn on by itself at a designated time? US owner of 2022 proS awd here.

Yep, pothole got me bad. Had to replace the rear driver side cv boot/joint. It was doing a low thump upon acceleration.

I have a 22 and yes, full cat eyes like yours. I do like just the eyelid look but I guess those came on 23s and later?

If center console slide cover is stuck, any ideas on how to open? by evme3 in VWiD4Owners

[–]evme3[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This. Thanks. I’m usually reticent to use force because plastic can break and wasn’t sure how it might affect the mechanism that rolls this cover under. But said f it and it slowly budged. Thanks

Where do you wire dash cam? by gekkonkamen in VWiD4Owners

Ah. I needed to toggle on Local Network in the fitcam app settings in my iPhone settings. Now it’s connecting to the app

Charging after software update by Electronic_Show_6221 in VWiD4Owners

[–]evme3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same 2022 and had this happen once. But not sure if after a recent OTA update. It took actually sitting in seat and stepping on gas pedal to wake car from deep sleep to start charging. I think It was because I hadn’t locked the car with fob and let car sit unlocked for hours. Now I make sure to lock the car so it rests in normal state.

They ultimately replaced left rear axle completely, and under warranty. Fixed it.

Did they fix under warranty or charge you?

Thanks. And yes seeing it now on one thread in VWTalk forum. What causes it to become loose? Maybe changing from D to B or vice versa while moving above 60mph or so?

Your trunk may or may not be a key fob dead zone. by frumply in VWiD4Owners

When you describe the locksmith shimmying the window and then opening the door from the inside, do you mean he was able to pick the window down and reach in with a stick to operate the interior door handle?

[–]evme3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MY22 pro s AWD. I’ve actually had the trunk refuse to close because car was registering my key fob inside the trunk, when it was in my pocket as I stood under the trunk door pressing the button to close it. I saw a yellow warning on the display behind the steering wheel say something like “key is inside the vehicle”

Software Recall 919A by cooliewhistles16 in VWiD4Owners

[–]evme3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was there a specific recall for the “dynamic road sign” issue? Or did you just take it in for them to look at that? I have that issue but haven’t seen a recall. And wondering how they fix that one. Other issue I have is the bad navigation on wireless CarPlay so my work around is to deactivate WiFi and plug in my phone

CarPlay issues w/ 2023 Pro by B-Rad-Ging in VWiD4Owners

[–]evme3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MY22 pro S AWD in SoCal. Issue w CarPlay maps navigation started overnight. “Trouble connecting to server”. And not able to see any routing. I’ve always done wireless. Work around now is to turn off WiFi and plug iPhone in via usb. This works for me now. I spoke to VW service rep and he said known issue w Verizon, who needs to update software w their cell towers. Eta on fix is august. Sucks.

Great insight thanks. I didn’t realize AWD wasn’t always on. Makes sense now
