JT: "it is for these reasons, Apple formatting all music in ACC files, and their non standard electrical connectors, that I refuse to buy and use Apple phones or iPods. Sorry if I offended the OP, but Apple changes their jacks so frequently, that you end up with what you are experiencing."...

miimura: it charges intermittently. there have been at least 3 occasions when my iPod battery has been drained completely, although periodically the iPod indicates that it is being charged. JoulesThief: you have posted a number of great replies! think that if you understood my use case...

Does anyone know if a 2015 SEL is supposed to charge an iPod, when connected via the MMI cable? My 2013 Leaf was able to do this. My eGolf does not seem to charge my 5th gen iPod Classic. Instead the iPod gradually loses battery power until it becomes "not available" as a media source. I've...

You guys clearly get it. Owners need to understand a little bit of electrical theory, then they can make an informed decision. What some people think is "safe" may not meet another persons definition of "safe". VW has a very strict definition of "safe". I just try to think it through and...

Resolved in my favor. They needed the eGolf all day to diagnose that the charger had failed, they had none in stock, over night shipped one from the LA warehouse, swapped dead for new; done. The all-day diagnosis was over in 5 minutes: plug it into a Service outlet, observe the error lights...

Found it: 2015 e-Golf Quick-Start Guide, iPod Adapter (optional), page 23. "First, your iPod music player must be Generation Four or newer in order to play music through your audio system." My iPod Classic is Gen 5. Hope this helps.

My iPhone 5 connects up every time via Bluetooth. However connecting my iPod is troublesome, typically every time I start my 2015 eGolf SEL. Initially even though the media cable was connected to my iPod Classic, the media center would not acknowledge the iPod presence. It had to go to the...

Your sig says "2012 Touareg TDI Sport, 2013 Touareg TDI Sport, 2014 Passat TDI SE, 2015 e-Golf SEL" so I didn't see any negative info about customer service but I see you are a repeat customer. I didn't gain any additional info by looking at your profile. Basically I don't know anything about...

Update from last night (Wednesday). I had called the Service Adviser on Monday morning, leaving a voice mail asking if the replacement charger had been ordered and when would it arrive? No answer. I repeated the voicemail on Tuesday morning. No answer. On Wednesday morning I called and left...

The charger isn't rated for use in rain? So if I start charging and notice that rain has started, I must run out and disconnect my charger until the rain stops? Even in the middle of the night? I haven't seen that warning. Please point me towards where I can find it. Didn't get an answer...

I did read the owners manual about using the charger and decided that from an electrical point of view, an 8 foot, 20A extension cord connected to a known GFI circuit was safe for me to use. I'm confident that other owners have tried other extension cord methods, such as a 100 foot 3-wire, no...

Fair question. The owners manual calls out a warning to not use extension cords and to always use a GFI protected circuit. Electrically I'm on solid ground with using a heavy-duty 20A extension cord (same as used to run our machinery in the machine shop) on a GFI protected circuit. I did test...

2015 eGolf SEL leased from Stevens Creek VW in San Jose, CA in June, ~3700 miles. Friday morning (yesterday) I set out on my commute from West SJ to Union City, ~30 miles each way. Upon arrival at work, pulled out the 120VAC Delphi charger, plugged it into the company extension cord. It was...

Just tried the sequence suggested above and it worked great! I'd been to the 'open and close' page before, but didn't realize that I needed to scroll down to find the last option at the bottom, 'acoustic confirmation' option. I know my neighbors will be thanking you too!

I end up coming home very late every night. All my neighbors are nice and are asleep. I plug in my 2015 eGolf then lock it. Really hate it that the horn honks in addition to the lamps flashing. Don't want to annoy the neighbors. I'd be hating on anyone who parked outside my bedroom window...

I've been following the "step hard and hold" advice offered for the brake pedal. Before pressing ON, the pedal does feel like it sinks. Wait for READY has worked every time this week where normally I would have experienced the problem at least once every day. Thank you to all the people who...

I've been chasing an intermittent problem that I first thought was related to unlocking after charging, but that was wrong. Problem occurs intermittently on power up, fully charged, while charging, or when charger not connected. Door closed, foot on brake, press the power button, put on seat...

Updating this post: The accident occurred on July 6th and I didn't get the car back until October 2nd. Very nearly 3 months off the road, waiting for one thing after another. VW Customer Service did the best they could, but if there are no spare parts available because it's been allocated for...

I thought the plan for the 2015 Golf series was to use as many common parts as possible, between the eGolf, gas Golf, Golf TDI. Thought that the drivers (and all) airbags would be common. Wonder if gas Golf and Golf TDI owners are also waiting on airbags.

VW Customer care has really stepped up to this challenge, especially Libby. Once I contacted VW Customer care and the case was assigned to Libby, she has phoned me *every single day* with an updated status. Current status is that they believe to have located an eGolf drivers airbag in...
