Like Juicedwagon, i was not sure whether there are any updates for either map version or for the infotainment system or the controls accessed through the infotainment system. So, my question could now be: 1) how does one obtain and apply map updates (given that there are some as you’ve replied)...

I’ve NEVER used the estimated miles available. Instead I use the “gas gauge” of available charge, either ECO or ECO+ mode (which reduce the draw on the HV battery thru various means), and charger route planning for anything other than the normal commute/its distance (approximately 20 miles each...

Recently I’ve come across the following aftermarket electronics packages. Via Reddit: https://motrade.nl/nl/carplay-android-mirror/vw/vanaf-2012-mib1-mib2/vw-mib-mib2/a-2332-20000279 Via YouTube: (email:info@caraudiokent .co.uk) Via ten (transport evolved network) article on add-on driver...

What is the last/most recent/ final update for the 2015 e-Golf? Here (attached) is what my system information screen shows for mine. Is it up to date? O is there a later release? Also, if there is a later release, how did you get your hands on it? Thank you for any help you give. -Tom

We previously owned a VW (Passat) and often went to a non-dealer service shop. I’m a bit fragile getting on my knees at this point and so when the solenoid fails utterly, I am thinking I will print off the helpful post that started this thread and see if the non-dealer service shop(s) Are...

I think I read about the buffer when I was shopping for my used 2015 eGolf. And, the chatter on usable vs listed capacity was an estimated value (percentage or kWh) in the various sources.

Got it! Thanks 😊

I may be slow here since I don’t see where one can spray silicone to lubricate the solenoid as some have suggested. I’d like to see whether lubricating the solenoid will take care of us for the short term. We recently, with the Winter rains, started having the solenoid sticking: at first...

I recently replaced the OEM tires in time for this Winter. I went with Sailun’s ERANGE EV tires (they are low rolling resistance tires) for our Winter weather conditions (rainy season) and the particulars of the 2015 SEL eGOLF. So far, I’ve been very happy with the handling and the relative...

I got word that VW's Car-Net app shutdown for eGolfs on 02/22/22 with ATT's turning off 3G. This app was used for diagnostics on your eGolf, emergency communications (like On-Star) and it let you lock/unlock and do other remote operations with your eGolf (like check on the progress of a...

The package may have been returned. I have found that return packages frequently do not include all the parts because someone that received it back doesn't know the parts are missing.

I bought a 2015 SEL e-Golf. It too has some slightly torn "beige" leatherette seats. The developing tear in mine is in a section of the perforated portion of the butt of the seat. Is yours on the side? How does the replacement look to you now that you've had the work done?

For 2015 eGolf, Correct. I bought the ICON 260E & 180E for the front, and A282H for the rear. My ICONs came with 4 different adapters or attachments. Use adapter/attachment #4.
