Getting this a lot.

Had the car from new since April, only use at weekend (it’s done 1500 miles total) but seems to throw this error up every other weekend. The infotainment unit seems to kick me out as a user and then just hangs / reboots so can’t use it.

Complete pos. Expected better from VW. Already looking forward to the car going back in April 2023….

Interesting post from a German based tech specialist





I've seen rumour of this elsewhere too.

Apparently skoda (who share the same software) are rolling this out now.

Possibly the end is in sight...
