    July 2015 Plug-In Electric Vehicle Sales Report Card

    I also was in place to choose between i3, MB B-Class and eGolf. In respective order. But after checking what it will be final price for each I choose eGolf with same features, range for less. For final price of BMW and MB (after all useful feature added) I would add little bit more and buy...

    What changes will there be in the 2016 e-Golf?

    https://www.yahoo.com/autos/s/2016-volkswagen-e-golf-se-30k-price-electric-120000966.html It looks like now SEL will be really more like premium edition. It will have faster charger, better packages, better screen. SE will have only 3.6kW charger (vs 7.2 in SEL) without fast charger option...

    Blink recent changes for non charging cars

    That's exactly my point. Nobody can see see any cars on gas station longer that it needs to fill up, right? Same should be here. If you not sure about your ability to leave/take your car off - don't park on charger spot. We don't have good infrastructure yet so everybody need to understand...

    Confirmed VCDS Tweaks for eGolf

    Oh, that's good to know. I though that Long coding is the way to do most of the stuff. Glad I can do Adaptation. I did notice bunch of options there. Now I hope to have more free time to play with it :) Will post if I found something helpful.

    Confirmed VCDS Tweaks for eGolf

    Great post! I do own VCDS and trying to play with it as well but I've got into a problem that there''s no description files for long coding or something like that and I can see just bunch of bites but no description. What version do you use? I was not able even connect with release 14 and was...

    Blink recent changes for non charging cars

    I agree that their prices are crazy but I think something like this still needed. I know that this will cause some inconvenience for some drivers but that will for sure keep those who just lazy to come and take car off the charger out. I bet other networks will follow this soon enough. I think...

    Blink recent changes for non charging cars

    Just got email from Blink that they implementing Charger Occupancy fee starting from 7/20/15. It will be 8 cents per minute after 15 mins as your car is fully charged but still connected to the charger. Of course it's not a complete cure but at least good start. I think this is very good...

    Maximum range shown

    Yea, I know that fact but I was kind of surprised that I always have ~identical numbers based on which charger I use. I use my eGolf purely for commute so my driving pattern is pretty much always the same so that's why maybe.

    Radio station change on startup.

    I did have same thing with radio - always some Spanish station for me. But for last few days suddenly it always stays on station I used before turning it off... Finger crossed :) About starting, now I always look into dash to check that Ready light. At first I was like trying to listen engine...

    Maximum range shown

    I have like 103 miles once but I agree with bobk2824, those high miles are not real, by driving just mile or so you can be out of 10 miles or more. I was thinking it more depends on charger. At work we have 4 chargers, one gives me 83 miles, always. Another one always 93 miles, and one more is...

    Public chargers and their apps

    Use plugshare for sure to discover your area to see what kind of stations you have. After that get those accounts and apps set up so when you in need you don't need to worry that you don't have account or anything like that. There's just few of them anyway, for now.

    VCDS from Ross Tech and eGolf

    Hi All, Is anybody tried to use Ross Tech cable along with VCDS on your eGolf? I have official cable but bought from 3rd party so can't contact them (unless pay additional $100). I did on mine and it can't access any module except reading car info and checking some DTC codes. Always asking if...

    I have cable and soft to access the car and will play with it, if this is in EU models it is there, just hidden, for sure. Will report back as soon as i have some time to do so.

    DO NOT GET UPDATE TSB 2040470- IT WILL BRICK YOUR CAR!!!!!!!

    I think it's standard behavior, no? This is exactly how it works in my car without TSB - only way to unplug charger (even after charging is done) is unlock the car (good at my place as some trying to unplug it even if it still charging).

    Overly cautious car

    Not all Golfs do that. I could start my previous 2014 Golf without pressing the brake. You need to press it to shift only. My BMW is require pressing the brake to start the engine (Start button as well).

    question: do you get TPMS message always?

    Did you try to set TPMS in the menu screen? I did have that on my gasser Golf. One tire was off, I inflated but after that notice still there. What you need to do is press Set TPMS button in the glow box (this is for gasser). Here I saw that button in menu. Make sure that pressure is correct...
