I've tried many dongles over the years but lag is inevitable. I use a Belkin BoostCharge Pro Flex USB-C Cable and a BestEvMod Silicone Console Mat because wired data is way more reliable.

I've been looking into the ID Buzz tech issues too... honestly the stock infotainment is kinda a headache. If you want to fix that lag without spending a fortune, you might want to consider the AAWireless Wireless Android Auto Adapter. It's usually cheaper than others and they have an app that lets you tweak the DPI and connection settings which can help with the stuttering. Be careful with those super cheap generic ones on Amazon tho, they tend to overheat and make things worse. For the phone sliding everywhere in LA traffic... I'd suggest looking at the WeatherTech CupFone Universal Cell Phone Holder. It's not the prettiest but it definitely keeps the phone from flying around. If you want to stay under $200 total, check out the VWIDTalk forums. People share 3D printed files there for custom console inserts. You could get one made for basically nothing and it solves the sliding issue way better than a flimsy mat.

The Carlinkit 5.0 Wireless Adapter is amazing for that screen lag but kinda pricey, while the Spigen OneTap MagSafe Car Mount is super sturdy but blocks vents. Both are fantastic, tbh!

  • Quick question tho, are you seeing that lag specifically with wireless navigation or just the standard menus? I'm quite satisfied with the Samsung T7 Shield 1TB Portable SSD for local media storage; it keeps the system snappy by reducing the data load. For safety in LA traffic, the Carqiwiz Wireless Charger Tray for VW ID. Buzz is much more reliable than the stock pad. I dont have any complaints, works well.
