Re: So what range are you Guy's currently getting at 80%

According to the GOM, I am supposed to get around 335km on 80% charge, but… as soon as I drive about 10km, the GOM depreciates to about 270km… go figure.

I find the percentage more accurate - I seem to get around 50km using about 14, 15% consistently.

Re: Is the user interface and the touch sensing buttons that bad?

Don’t listen to the haters - it’s not as bad as it seems. I use the adaptive cruise control ALL the time, and it works a treat when you have learnt it. Setting the distance (the button under the ACC) is done once and then you forget about it, so that’s a non-issue. Going back and forward through son...

Improvement points

As the remote control for the garage stopped working, we are left to going old school and open the garage door with a tag😱 Although I noticed this before, as soon as you lift your behind to get to the keys in the pocket easier, the car thinks you are somehow leaving and goes into park… quite annoyin...

Re: Heating

Dog knows how the AC is programmed in this car… hot air from outside vent, cooler air from ONE middle vent, hot from the other. Can’t help but thinking this is yet another software issue, where things aren’t quite the way they should be.

Re: Entry/exit lights

I don’t seem to have this either.
Just a thought, but VAG being what they are, perhaps they just removed the feature due to the whole semiconductor shortage thing?

Re: Scheduled charging

This is so that the grid can cope with all the cars taking advantage of off-peak charging Holy hell, why would ayone believe there are that many EV’s around to stress the grid this much. Charging at max 11kW? Sounds like bullshit to me. What on earth would a few minutes starting time difference do?...

Re: Air Con coming through passenger side

Well, I have a LHD car and this has happened to me as well. I am not sure about the aircon in this car - this morning, temp set at 23°, the very left vent blows warm air and the middle drivers ine is blowing out cooler air. I suspect this is to get to the desired temp in the car as a whole, but it f...

Cyclone 18” wheels

As I switched to winter wheels the other day, I decided to put them on a scale, and they are pretty lightweight. Bridgetone Turanza Eco and the Cyclone wheel together are only 20.55kg, almost 3kg lighter/wheel than the winter ones. The Cyclones look massive, so this suprised me a little. Also, wheel...

AFAIK, that is software version 3.1 and has not been pushed out to users yet.

What is a ”good” tire, in your opinion? And what are the standard eco ones? Continental?
