Title: Does anyone have a PDF version of the 8.5 manual
Post by: Monkeymagik on 12 April 2025, 07:24

Hi everyone, you can go online to view the cars manual, rather than using the infotainment system, however when I enter the chassis number the manual comes up but every page is blank. Just wondering if anyone had managed to find a pdf version they could send me.

And sorry I don’t mean the half baked hard version that comes with the car.

Yep, the VW web server is hopeless. Seems to be down more often that it's working. If you try again tomorrow it may be working. Or maybe not! I found a GTI manual (pdf) online, but it is a 2021 US edition. I think I sourced it from vwmanual.net but I can't quite remember. Just be careful when using these third party user manual websites as some of them are a bit dodgy (i.e. you may be downloading more than you think). Best to check them with something like Norton antivirus website checker beforehand.
