Golf mk7 / Re: You don’t fancy an 8R?

Not for me.

Golf mk8 / Re: Mk8 software version poll
« Last post by Relishy57 on 18 January 2022, 10:19 »The car was delivered in April 2021 with 1788 then in July 2021 it was updated to 1803 which was actually worst and now this 1890 which seems to be better so far for one day.This should upgrade your software to version 1890
Hurrah!
What version did you have before?
VW also give me a total of €1000 because I requested for sale price reduction or a new car due to the issues in September 2021.
Thanks.
I am looking forward to getting mine fixed - like you I find the speed limit warning very unreliable and cause for concern.
I must get round to sending a sh1tty email to VW and asking for compensation.
I emailed VWUk last year when I was having problems and had a phone call back from them but nothing offered apart from profuse apologies. I did ask for an extended warranty when this one runs out, said that was the least they could do.
Hope they have t forgotten about the 16xx models I only got mine in May 21 but have had 2 software upgrades since. Variable success, one day it works, next day not!
My son in law got his R in October after a protracted wait. It’s on 18xx but my grandson said the other day when mine was ‘bong bong’ front assist not working etc “my daddy’s car does that too”.
