I wrote up a user guide for the ID.4 to help with urgent or semi-urgent issues, like an inability to open the door or to start the car. Some folks in this thread asked me to make it available, so here it is:
VW ID.4 Basic User Guide
I left it in Google Docs/Word format instead of converting it to PDF because it's specific to my car and my situation. For example, the owner of an RWD model may need to remove the note that there's no tow hook receptacle in the front bumper. Similarly, many folks have family members who know perfectly well how to plug the car in. YMMV, as usual.
It's also why I didn't include more in-depth but maybe less immediately critical fixes like the Fuse 19 trick. My family members, at least, would rather walk.
It might go without saying, but I have some stuff that didn't come with the car:
Thanks to @Spin for the encouragement and for offering to create a sticky.

- Spare wheel, jack, lug bolt wrench, wheel guide
- Battery jumper
- Crescent wrench, socket wrench, screwdriver
- L2 and DCFC J3400 adapters
- Tesla portable EVSE kit
