Any idea how I get rid of this constant warning message in notifications?

Either... Pay for vw Internet access via the esim or connect your car to a WiFi hot-spot on your phone.

I use something called macrodroid to do it... Turns on the hot-spot when it connects to the car Bluetooth and off when the car switches off.

The error message disappears then

Thanks. Guess I can’t access the esim for other online services if I use my iPhone as a hotspot ?

Is this on Android? Anything similar on Apple that you know of?
