    Green car? Time to switch to green power, too!

    No geothermal yet. I'm trying to convince the wife to make the switch before the credits expire this year (assuming they didn't get renewed). We have two electric cars and a somewhat large house so we use a lot of electricity.

    Green car? Time to switch to green power, too!

    We just turned on our 19.25kw system a couple months ago. We love it! Go solar!!!

    2016 EGolf Problem Switching Modes

    I change modes while moving almost every time I drive and I've never had an issue. I didn't see anywhere in the manual saying not to do that. You would think it would be locked out while you are moving if that's what VW wanted.

    For those who listen to music using an SD card....

    About 75% of the time my 2015 SEL says the card is not readable. The SD Card reader sucks.

    Who reserved a Tesla Model 3?

    My wife and I reserved two about at about 10:15am on 3/31. We plan on selling our Model S and replacing the E-golf with them. As of 9am on 4/2, Tesla had 232,000 reservations. I'm ecstatic that the EV revolution is finally happening. This will certainly wake up other manufacturers R&D and...

    2017 e-Golf may have 30% battery increase

    Has anybody heard any updates on the 2017? I imagine it should be out on the west coast in 3-4 months.

    Charger Port Lock

    I went through the same exercise with my 2015 SEL after getting the update with no luck. I have a Leviton EVB32-M8L Evr-Green 320 charger.

    Daylight Savings Time

    Don't blame the forums on one bad seed. All he does is put people down and rarely adds any value to any of his many posts.

    Wait time for an E-Golf being ordered/built from the factory

    Yes, I am a lazy driver because I want to be as safe as possible. Should we get rid of seat belts, air bags, crumple zones and any other safety feature too? If it were up to you, we would all be riding horses still. I'm done with responding to you as this is not doing anything other than...

    Wait time for an E-Golf being ordered/built from the factory

    You are crazy if you don't think features like autonomous braking and eventually autonomous driving will save thousands of lives every year once the majority of cars on the road have them. I could care less about a car driving itself faster than professional race car driver.

    Wait time for an E-Golf being ordered/built from the factory

    Seriously JoulesThief? "Don't whine" when a feature that has been out for months in Europe is still problematic? I'm sorry that I want all the safety features available on my car. If it isn't ready, they shouldn't release it. End of story.

    Wait time for an E-Golf being ordered/built from the factory

    Hello all, I placed an order for my 2016 E-Golf from the factory when they first released the "drivers assistance" package in the US in mid February. They said it could be 3-5 month before it arrives then they said it should be here (Washington, DC) in mid May or maybe even mid April. Does...

    Latest firmware update....no eco, eco, OFF ROAD?

    Thanks for the replies and advise. The VW of America rep said they needed 7-10 business days to get things figured out. I told them they keep delaying the process and I would give them until this coming Friday to resolve the issue to my satisfaction. I picked up the car on Friday after they...

    Latest firmware update....no eco, eco, OFF ROAD?

    Yesterday, VW of America called and said they are still reviewing my request to swap my car out for 2016 which hopefully won't have these issue or get me out of my lease and I'll lease another one. This was the third time they've told me they need more time to review the case. This time they...

    Latest firmware update....no eco, eco, OFF ROAD?

    Thanks, I spoke to VW of America last week requesting to have the vehicle replaced with a 2016 or to buy back the car. My car was purchased in late December 2014 and I am guessing it must have been an early car off the line before the bugs were worked out. I am hoping to hear back tomorrow...

    Latest firmware update....no eco, eco, OFF ROAD?

    Just to update the thread, VW still has the car. They've had it since 12/22 and don't expect the part to come in until 2/13 at the earliest. This is crazy that over 13 months, my E-Golf has been in VW Service for over 3 months (over 4 visits). We love the car but VW needs to learn how to...

    Latest firmware update....no eco, eco, OFF ROAD?

    They still have the car. They are replacing the radio and the SIM card (not sure why they have to do that). Hopefully that fixes it. They have had the car since 12/22.

    Latest firmware update....no eco, eco, OFF ROAD?

    Just a quick update, they still have the car. They said they spoke to VW USA and had no luck. Now they are replacing the radio (waiting for the new radio to come in). I love the car but hate VW service.

    Latest firmware update....no eco, eco, OFF ROAD?

    So my VW was in service for 18 days while they tried to fix my heat (or lack there of) issue. While it was there they updated all the firmware and now when I press the "eco" button it goes from no eco to eco to "off road". When you click info under off road it is blank. Did VW screw something...
