Mk8 software version poll

No I expected that.... any car built after the day mine was built will have D variant hardware, 1788 software and the map in the dash.

But that’s not what VW are saying...

Fair enough, but I’m not sure that calling it BS will help me haha

Is that what you need?

[fredgroves]

Yes, thats a much later car - made in 2021.

So latest software bug is it throws up some long message about me being a primary user since a specific date then logs me out. Never get chance to read what it actually says as it only pops up for about 5 seconds.

If this carry’s on I’m close to rejecting the car! 4 garage visits just to get the thing working!

That’s a Vw server issue,not a software one. Must have been the servers down which happens quite often.

They take the servers offline loads. Its terrible really. You don't see amazon or Facebook offline... Not ever.

Happened to me, too.  Go into User Settings, if it is set to Guest then set it back to you.  I did that and not long after - possibly the next time I had left the car for a while and then started up again, it asked me to log in with my e-mail & PW and then asked for my S-PIN (even though I had unchecked the requirement option a couple of weeks ago).  Once entered, everything went back to normal.  As said, it was likely a server-side change of some kind that resulted in everyone being logged out.

Today mine advised me that traffic sign recognition was successfully activated and to enjoy my new feature... Ermm OK volkswagen.

I have no idea what that means, unless it means it's been updated ota.
