Re: Born Again

That's a good result! Usually VW group would just refund you for the lack of option.

Re: New Born Arriving Early March; Some Trepidation...

If your born doesn't have anything in the boot for puncture repair, then your Born will be fitted with self seal tyres. These tyres will automatically plug any holes that would be normally repaired with the 'snot'. So if the seal seal cannot seal the hole automatically, the hole would be too big for...

Re: Touchscreen updates

Originally I thought it was the front wheels losing traction but after experiencing it more, it's definitely more a mechanical issue than friction. I'll wait for the TPI resolution. Mine is going into a 'friendly' dealer in April to sort out the rear cam. The supplying dealer looked at it 1st and fo...

Re: Occasional rattle sound

Car noises can be a nightmare. On one of my previous cars, a rattle could be heard dead centre of the dash. As it was a new model, they were still trying to figure it out. Many other owners had dashboard out, this and that and still no solution. Luckily for me, by the time I booked mine in, the culp...

Re: Touchscreen updates

I have to concur that the issues we have with the Born are not EV issues but more VW issues with lack of development before general release.

Re: Puddle / mirror down lights extra marks in Cupra logo

looks like the lens filter has deteriorated. New light required as I doubt they will have the lens filter as a individual part. Warranty should cover it fine.

Re: Disappointing charging rate

I was at a 50kw gridserve 1.30am today on the M4. Was in my mates ID5 GTX and we only peaked at 41kw from the 50kw station. We were at 8% when we charged and left at around 50% of charge.
