    Thank god. This is literally the worst thing about my car (apart from the lane assist trying to kill me).

      I found that a homicidal lane assist, have a really good effect on my alertness. Before lane assist I could relax and almost doze of, but with lane assist I don’t dare to relax for a second since I know it will try to murder me the first chance it gets. So, I guess that is why people say lane assist prevents accidents.

            He fixed the typo. It’s no longer homocidal.

          Corrected my typo, so contextually challenged persons can avoid being confused. You are welcome.

        Lane assist on the golf tried to murderise me recently even though I was driving on a road without lane markings

        Wait, you don’t mean dozing off while driving, right?

        Lane assist on the golf tried to murderise me recently even though I was driving on a road without lane markings but I keep it on because it stops me from killing myself on this one bridge I have to drive over

      My car lets you turn off lane assist, it’s the collision avoidance that I can’t turn off that is trying to kill me. Randomly I’ll be driving along when an alarm sounds and it tries to swerve off the road. It’s fucking infuriating and dangerous and despite many of us complaining to the manufacturer you can’t turn it off.

          Man do they still do that with these “smart features” or is it all just linked to an inexplicable welded shut black box now? Lol

            Honestly I have no idea. Often they run different features through different control modules, but every car is different.

      The capacitive touch buttons under the screen on my ID4 don’t light up, so they’re literally invisible at night and completely useless.

        You sure you don’t have the fader wheel turned all the way down? It’s usually to the left of the steering wheel.

          There isn’t a fader wheel on the ID.3 at least, so I’d assume the same in the ID.4

        Do you have more unlit buttons than the volume and climate strip that I have in the Multivan? I believe we share that same strip and it’s ironic that the power button on there is actually lit! However as it only does two things and there’s feedback on the screen when you touch it, I haven’t had any of the issues people have complained about. Plus those functions can be accessed elsewhere.

          For the driver, you can access it elsewhere. But to deal with the climate, you then have to go into the touchscreen menu and mess around rather than just turning a dial. The volume is less of an issue as the driver, the volume is on the steering wheel. But the passenger can’t turn down the volume, etc. I love the id4, planning on driving it into the ground, but buttons for functions like that would be better.
