Why would VW waste money on electricity to fully charge all the EVs they sell? I think the general policy to is ship it with 30-50% charge which is a long-term sweet-spot according to various studies.
It's up to the dealer's discretion to charge it after it arrives

Re: Beats Audio issues
The audio dropouts and stutters affect all of the non-4.0 hardware vehicles on the MEB platform (ID., Enyaq, Born) that are equipped with the premium audio option. It's a ridiculous bug, frankly. The main difference between the regular sound system and beats is the extra audio processing options and...

Re: Internet Radio
Is there anyone who got the Internet Radio function to work? It should work if you connect your born to your mobile phone (with mobile data enabled, of course) Otherwise in Germany at least you can pay for a data package from Cubic - which you can order from the in-car menu. 2 GB for 30 days 6,95€ ...

Re: New Cupra Born VZ !
fwiw the "only" differences so far are: - AP550 motor and gearbox with max speed of 200km/h - new seats - infotainment hardware 4.0 (same as ID.7) - 12.9" instead of 12" infotainment display - illuminated sliders - larger brakes - modified suspension - wider wheels - different so...

Re: Fault in the electric drive system
Collected car earlier. I was told that the error messages were related to the charging cable being disconnected before the charging process had finished. First time yes absolutely, charge had finished and I had stopped the process via the app. The car when unlocked wouldn’t release the cable and I ...

Re: Sound system
I have the beats sound system and the Sub was bad enough that I built my own replacement and plugged it into the existing amp. Basically the plastic enclosure is the downfall. What did you opt for? Did you go stereo or mono? Any pics would be most welcome! I've seen replacements that look like this...

Re: Muting audio with a click
As they jokingly call it in German, look of page 87 of the "forbidden book" (aka the manual) and search for the word "mute"

Re: Separate heated seat pads
The 12V cigarette lighter can deliver 180W while the drive system is engaged and 120W when not. It's connected to a 20A fuse (240W). The problem is that the cigarette lighter power port is way at the back. The manual says that the rear (NOT FRONT!) USB PD ports have a 7.5A fuse, therefore theoretica...
