VW ID. Hidden Features Tips Tricks + Cool Accessories

[@Koff33y]

My man, the best way to disable the annoying seatbelt sound is to, you know, wear the seatbelt.

[@luizguilhermevieira7086]

I've watched dozens of videos about the id4 and this is the first one to mention a lot of these cool features. Thank you, sir. Very helpful.

[@D0RiMivs]

Just FYI. This is a Chinese model, ID4 CROZZ. European and US models are slightly different. For example, there is no USB under glove box. More over, 360 camera and related recording software are custom installed. In China, you can buy many different 360 cameras and software that goes along with it is also different.

[@jmfurz]

Super video with effective & short feature descriptions! Thanks for saving me to dig much deeper under the glove box to find USB that's not there. Sad that VAG doesn't add this feature elsewhere when it's ready, deployed and demo'ed :-(

[@Jithu_11]

Man , finally an actual video that shows really good features

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Thanks. I am glad you liked it

[@staggerlee2749]

I've watched A BILLION of these vids.. This one that this guy made us BY FAR the best one .. Thank u sooo much

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Many thanks dear

[@FlightSims]

A real video on usable features instead of the useless ones. Thank you 😊.

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ernst7127]

By tapping the heat and cold buttons at the same time with two fingers, you can activate the seatheating, do it again you can lower it every time! That's what I use a lot in winter, but not necessary in Dubai I expect ;-)

[@CatherineWintersRealtor]

You did a fantastic job pointing out and explaining these extra special features. The Auto Hold is what I use most. Washing the rearview camera is something I will also use. Thank you!

[@eBroncos]

Re: Auto Hold - If the gear is in D, then the car should not roll if I don't press the acceleration pedal. Am I misunderstanding something?

[@kristerk9804]

Love the arm handle for both front Seats. Stops the fight

[@DeryndaDiana]

VW should employ you!! The best explanation I have seen yet..

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Many thanks, dear

[@darrenl3328]

Definitely the best tips video on there, thanks so much! I now have a list of things to check on my new ID.4!

[@FredCallahan]

Great video. Thanks for making it. I just purchased my I.d 4 a few days ago and I’ve watched a bunch of videos so far that didn’t have the information you provided. Thanks again.

[@Yourlocalf1fan177]

My mom has an id6 and its super cool. It has super good air conditioning(like fresh and clean air) and especially auto parking, it works so well

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Its a great car

[@mrjorvonsmith]

Thank you so much for this video. I just purchased a 2024 id4 S, and I am still learning it.

[@Magsbravo]

How your experience with 2024 ID4 so far? How was it in winters? I’m really interested in 2024 ID4

[@obiapunamichael]

I just got the 2023 iD4 Thank you so much for sharing this information .

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Glad I could help!

[@cyndylou9]

Very helpful - just bought a new 2022 ID.4 on 4/8/23 - still learning!

[@abdurahmanmohammed-p3o]

Great video! I love the way you showed the tips and tricks!

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Glad you liked it!

[@erhardschreck2192]

thanks for the nice overview. yes in the US we do not have all of your features like no USB at rear view mirrror (2021 PRO S). i did not know i have the camera cleaning feature. thanks can you please post somewhere how to enable the remote control closing of the hatch. i do have OBDeleven.

[@llf0701]

Great video! So helpful. I just purchased the storage box for the area under the console. I think my favorite feature is washing the rear camera!! More More More!!!

[@shanmukhann.n111]

Great info. Thanks for sharing. I am using ID4 PRO CROZ. Great experience. But I could not locate the USB connector for built in camera recording behind the glove box. Appreciate if you could share the position correctly.

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Replied to you on whatsapp

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

As shown in the video, it is right behind the glove box compartment, but you approach it from under the box. It is not easy to find. It took me 2-3 attempts to find it

[@jmfurz]

@@MinistryReviewsSchaz do you confirm the USB and dashcam feature is only found on selected eastern / chinese models, as @D0RiMivs stated?

[@LucyVelazquez-ft9ko]

I love the way the iD4 turns… you can almost make a UTURN on the same lane.

[@cherugebriye3551]

Fantastic insight to VW ID Cars . Thank you.

[@websurf71]

Very nice video brother I bet more than half of the owners who have the car don't know any of these features !!! Kudos one of the features you may want to add in your next vid might be the charger release notch inside the trunk.

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Glad you liked it!

[@kbinhamad]

This is the most useful video I saw about this. I was hesitant to get it but now I am convinced .. thank you

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Thats great. Any other question, drop me a msg wa.me/971566822520 I highly recommend getting a car media adapter for this car

[@LuisHtm]

Thank you so much for your video! Could you tell the whole process step by step how to record and view the videos from the 360 camera? I wasn’t able to do this unfortunately

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Contact me on Whatsapp: wa.me/971566822520

[@iamkian]

You can also auto open / close the trunk by long pressing the trunk key on the remote.

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Many Thanks

[@kernel_joey]

Happy to say that here in Norway that charging cable is seriously NOT a must-have on road trips. Fast chargers 150W and above have become the standard but you may sometimes need to use a 50W charger if other stalls are occupied. Overnight AC charging of course requires said cable.

[@vulpixelful]

Same for the US. I wonder if not including the cables on public chargers in the middle east is to protect them from the heat and other elements

[@michaelherlihy2090]

Armrests are really great for long journeys and you really only appreciate them when you don't have them

[@Richard1976]

I see many complains of the slide functions. Tried it once with a loaner. But i actually liked it

[@luislinares3870]

Favorite feature so far for me is the ambient light settings for different users.

[@lokwilliam8352]

👍👍dear Sir, much thanks for your warmly and nice sharing 😊🙏🙏

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Most welcome

[@abelterefe3346]

my favorite is the self cleaning camera.

[@GPowtlaw2]

excellent list of accessories, thanks for also including the links

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Sure thing!

[@jcaz1313able]

Thank you for the valuable information. Things that I didn't know about the ID4. 👍

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Glad it was helpful!

[@1yyymmmddd]

Very good tips. But how on earth you get your id4 to switch on interior lights on back doors open from outside?

[@johngault-yourchicagoprope3521]

Which car media adaptor are you using in the video? You have 3 listed but that one looks easy to you. Thank you for a great video!

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

The one in the video is the MMB Max device, its a high-end premium brand device. I have tested many others on my channel , do check it out

[@mikaelj667]

Thanks for the best explanation of settings on an ID-4

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

[@carolinaramirez1351]

Thank you so much for this video! It has been so informative, fun to watch and great to discover all the cool things that my ID. 4 is capable of. Knowledge is power after all 😊

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ahmadfouad3786]

great video! does the auto-park option work in the Lite Pro?

[@AbdelQebali-qp2pp]

Thank you so much for showing us the features in the car, can you please explain how to connect the usb to the 360 cameras please? I opened the glove box, and I couldn’t find the cable for it.

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

In some models the usb connection is not available

[@hansbaessler7668]

very good video, like it! a question please , is there the need for a dashcam at all when you can use the onboard 360° camera by USB stick recording so easily?

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

That is for those versions that dont have the 360 camera like Pure or Pure+ in some countries

[@opakistrano]

Hi there! You seem to be the right one to ask this: Do you know anything about the promised Vehicle to home feature on the VW ID cars? Hot to make it work and which devices you need to install to make it work.. ?

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

The car I have is the Chinese imported model with a lot of features not available, this is definitely one of those thats not available in my car. We cannot use any online services in these Chinese imported models, no internet connectivity

[@osesammokbel]

The best one I ever seen. Thanks

[@Jithu_11]

Great review ! Really love it

[@Chris-zj7ji]

Great video! Which sun protector for the front wiendshield (that is large on the ID3) would you reccomend? I am also dissapointed that the some of the buttons below the screen are not lit up.

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

responded to you on email

[@meedy92]

Are these features available in 2021 id pro s solely with software update?

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

I have not tested it, but I guess it shoud be available as it is the same model. A few features are specific to some models, like the USB camera recording function is not available in all ID.4s

[@chadbrockman4791]

NIce job on this video. Very informative.

[@oh-lulu]

Great video and amazing tricks, thank you!

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Glad you like them!

[@FengChuanLiao]

The ID.4 is readily available in the USA now, as the new Tennessee factory is producing some 7,000 ID.4 each month.

[@renorican1]

Great video!!!!

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@camiloarellano6141]

Shaz, Great video! Thank you for putting it out there. Question: I have a bike rack that is attached to the tow hitch. When I go into reverse, the car's emergency brakes always engage and create severe whiplash. I then installed a Curt 57245 trailer adaptor that made the vehicle think that I am towing a trailer. This is good for the whiplash, but not good because it disables the rear and side sensors. Now, I tried turning off the "maneuver braking" but it resets every time I turn off the car. Let me know if you hear anything. Thanks!

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

You need to do some coding changes. Ask your dealer about it. But if you know how to do coding, you can do it yourself with the OBDeleven device

[@jhontsega1009]

Nice description thanks for all but how can get where the tools to change tire

[@davepench8518]

If charger cable is stuck pull yellow release in right side of trunk. 😉

[@toddkaneross]

[@MarianoVargasVindas]

Hello! The recording with USB is very interesting. How do you get to the Chinese menu to view the recordings?

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

When you get to the camera view page, you will find a settings gear icon at the bottom, click on that and then use the google translate camera app on your mobile to translate the Chinese menu on the screen

[@derandiheissst]

Really nice Video - thank a lot 🎉 @ 7:47 will the old data be overwritten in case the USB stick is full? And will it also record when the car is parking?

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Yes, It overwrites the oldest video when the usb is full. Yes, it also parks in parking but when someone or something is nearby. I found videos saved where a cat was passing by

[@derandiheissst]

Thanks a lot for your nice and fast reaction 🎉

[@derandiheissst]

PS: I hope this is also working for the europe version of this car - will order one next Friday 😊

[@alexfung9649]

Good job.Thanks.

[@richardkohlhof]

I'm most excited that I'm supposed to be getting one before the end of this month!

[@jmfurz]

It is a trick I think not mentioned, that you can program the stop-point / lid height of rear trunk lid, by stopping lid at desired position and hold button 10 sec to program it? Another thing IMHO is that the foot-engaged rear trunk lid open feature is better working for me when you stick your foot in-out ca under in the centre of the car rear skirt instead of waving your foot sideways left-right ;-)

[@mohammed-pl8zt]

Thanks alot for the tips

[@hamedal-aarag1953]

Thanks a lot for these nice information. I have ID 5 style, how to turn on the information on the windscreen please ?

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

[@ccondon1960]

My 21 ID.4 Pro S has not had any software updates and is just a few Days short of 1 year old & has 60K miles on it , it’s a great car , but disappointed that I haven’t received updates that I was told would happen every 12 weeks or so , hopefully, I’ll get update 3.0 soon which will make some of the features you showed available on mine ! Thanks for the info !

[@kernel_joey]

I don't want to land on 3.0 certainly so I'm awaiting guaranteed to go to something like 3.5 where fixes since 3.0 has been added.

[@AC_Milan1899]

These are dealer updates. Only they can trigger these.

[@juanitasings3071]

I was feeling the same but I just received my update during or as part of the recalls service.

[@laatu1234]

I have ID.5 - I like ID light, this is nice when using navigation.

DashCam USB - thanks for sharing

[@derandiheissst]

Thanks again for this nice vide - can you please let me know where to access the video recoding menu you are showing at 7:47 and which software version you are using? Thanks a lot!

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

I have the Chinese imported ID.4 Pro Crozz 2022 model, and you get the option to watch recorded footage on the camera section

[@derandiheissst]

@@MinistryReviewsSchaz Ok, thanks for your Answer. I hope I geht my ID.4 GTX by this month and will find out if this option is available , but I don't think so. No reviewer in Europe is showing this feature...

[@derandiheissst]

​@@MinistryReviewsSchaz People in the German ID forum are of the opinion that this integrated USB dashcam in the ID.4 is not an original feature, but is a third party product. Can you please answer honestly, is this integrated USB dashcam you show at 7:47 original from WV installed on the production line or not?

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

@@derandiheissst That is correct. it is not the original camera system. I bought the car from the showroom as is and then made the video, I thought this is the original feature. But after many months, one garage guy told me that this is a aftermarket camera system that the showroom installed and didnt tell me.

[@chrisdicko1683]

Most informative video I've seen yet, is this same for the ID.7? I like the USB recording feature will that record when the car isn't occupied and locked??

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

Many thanks. Most features would be available in ID.7 as well. It will record when the car is ON.

[@TheMuaythaieesti]

Could you please show the exact usb port location that you use for the video recoding? 2023 US models don't have the USB port on the rear-view mirror. :(

[@MinistryReviewsSchaz]

I have the Chinese imported model which I think is slightly different than EU/US models

[@krane15]

Feature I love: the one-touch window up/down/lock control. I've been asking for that for years now. One feature I wish they would would incorporate is a fingerprint reader or code to the key fob. Something you have automatically if you us your smart phone as you key. One more thing, use the entire screen for camera view. If there's any benefit to a larger infotainment display, that would be it.

Hi these features were AWESOME! But does the id4 crozz pure plus has those same features? Please tell me
