Starts fine even in -4F weather. Will probably swap it this year with another OE battery as oddly i have better luck with OE batteries and they tend to be cheaper than Autozone/Orielys/Advanced.

2017 got a new battery in 2023 before winter, didn't have a no start issue but figured it was time. Went with a dealer battery, was only $138ish for the 72ah upgrade and replaced it in their parking lot to get the core charge back.
2022 ID.4 in Canada. Have had two replaced. Luckily when it happened it was in my driveway for all three times. Hooked up a charger to the 12v for a few hours and it started like nothing was wrong.
The battery VW uses in the ID.4 is trash. I had it replaced under warranty in my 2021 after about 2 years when my car died in the garage and I had to get assistance. The tow truck driver got it going with a jump starter. It\u2019s now just out of warranty in year 4 and I get the \u201cLow 12V\u201d warning on cold days.
Update: it was just the battery, everything works fine after replacement and coding/adaptation. No error codes. Thanks everyone
On the day of delivery itself, the car wouldn\u2019t start. The dealership jump-started it and said there was a small battery issue, assuring me that it won\u2019t happen again. But from that day onwards, the vehicle has never been reliable.
I’ve had my id3 5 years now and had very few problems with the car or charging. I’ll get maybe 180 miles on the motorway but close to 240 miles cross country. Manchester to Sheffield to Nottingham and back to Manchester left me with around 50 miles range, but I can’t get from Manchester to London, or Manchester to Glasgow without charging.
wir haben unseren ID4 mit 50.000km gekauft und EZ 08/2023 sorich recht viel in kurzer Zeit geladen, da vorbesitzer ihn als Firmenwagen hatte. Beim Kauf war SoH vei 94% und die ersten Prozente degradieren ja schneller sprich je geringer SoH desto weniger degration. Weshalb ich auch behaupten möchte, der Akku hält länger als das Auto
Fahre selber den ID.5 aus 02.2023 mit inzwischen 85.000km und geladen wurden zu 85% am Schnelllader. Ich habe bisher einen errechneten Verlust von 1,2%.
Ich kann nur sagen dass mein id3 4 jahre alt und 120t km hat. Batteriegesundheit ist bei 95% ich würde mir gar keine sorgen machen
