Also mid 230’s at 80%. In mostly in town driving, dividing the remaining range by state of charge (on the vehicle menu) always is mid to high 290’s. Highway travel brings total range down to mid 260’s.

I charged tonight at an EA station (where 5 of the 6 stations were down and the other location 15 miles had 3 out of 4 down - yikes) exactly to 80%

242 miles (3.5 miles per kWh according to my long range stats - I drive 50% highway and 50% city roads)
1 month
80%
Comfort mode
Temps: 74-90F

Has anyone looked at the drive settings (eco, sport, comfort) to see if the make a big difference in range?
It does. I was driving mostly in Sport and would usually see 190-200ish at 80% after a charge. This is for a daily 40 mile round trip to work with 80% at 65ish and a few stop lights. Switched to Eco for a few days and am now seeing 220-230 every morning at 80%. And at the end of the day the GOM is always 20+ miles higher than it was under Sport. I was surprised at how much of a difference it makes......but back to Sport, the extra punch is worth the lower range :D

Curious about this too. I recently pulled into two different EA stations only to have someone already there tell me the charger I was at was not working. Each time I tried the App/swipe combo first and it didn't work. Then I tried the iPhone wallet EA card held up to the rfid reader and both times the charger started. Both of these chargers appeared to be active and were NOT displaying the Out of Service warning on the displays.

I always use the wallet first and can start a charge within 20 seconds of exiting my car. The 4 that were down had "please unplug" messages and some timer on it (I took photos on my phone). I suspect you could get those working by calling the support number and have them reboot the charger. One was definitely Out of Service with a crazy error.

I picked the available one (as per app) and that started charging without issue.

I love free EA charging. Can't complain about it too much. I've used 200 kW in a month already and saved $90+ in public charging expenses. What I don't love is the locations and unpredictability of each charging session. I do meet a LOT of other ID.4 and EV owners and learn from everyone's experiences. There was one day that was a German car lovefest with a Taycan, e-Tron, and two ID.4s all parked together.
