Id4 battery upgrade done, still in 2.3 though? (UK)

I had my battery upgrade done a few weeks back. Still no sign of 2.4? I called the garage and they said I should just wait for 2.4 OTA? Something feels off.

How quickly did you get the 2.4 update after the battery change?

I had the same query and spoke to the technician at my local dealer since I'd had a new battery and upgrade as part of another fix (SOS unit). Apparently '2.4 update' is identified as '2.3' in the vehicle. Seems like VW have some serious issues with their software management.

I was trying to get 3.0 (which the VW website seemed to imply was available), so checked. I'm all in favour of verifying the functionality and compatibility of the new release (hope the sort out the charging scheduler), but it's becoming as much a PR disaster as Gridserve's 2 vehicle dynamic charging
No offence CW2, but "Seems like VW have some serious issues with their software management." must be the understatement of the century!

I hope you get on OK with your 2.3, which is the 2.4, update. Since I had it done, the app has failed to work occasionally, and the car now goes off-line on a regular basis. Never happened previous to the "update" in the 13 months of my ID3 ownership. Now booked in with the stealer, as VW Germany have said there is definitely an issue with something, but won't say what it is.
No issues so far on the app..only issue used to be android auto. The GPS signal was often lost but I think that was my OnePlus, now have a pixel 7 pro and no GPS issues using android auto.

Although VW haven’t said anything, I am thinking that the comms module in the car is at fault with my issue. Maybe they replaced it when they did the 2.4 update and the newer one is worse than the original. Just a guess.
