VW Connect Go
« on: 09 January 2024, 13:24 »
Just had an email from VW stating this will be turned off at the end of 2024. I assume this doesn’t relate to replacement for the other Connect app that was turned off last year? I get confused with the plethora of VW apps and websites (age related I guess)
In fairness, I quite like the Connect replacement, not as clunky and seems more reliable.

In fairness, the one that replaced We Connect actually works.

We Connect worked fine for me for the week I had it, the new app doesn’t. Can’t access vehicle data, no watch app, and customer service are no help.

I had the same problem when the We Connect was launched, all ok now?

Sometimes it’s fine, sometimes I have to sign in and out a few times before it will display data. The export function doesn’t work at all.
