Joe I think you may be correct I just checked online configuration again and it doesn't appear to be included 12.9 screen standard no
Nav. Has anyone seen this before is it a requirement with app connect. It's crazy for cost of car not to be standard pure penny pinching.

You'd still have the same 12.9" screen and wireless App connect will definitely be on it (CarPlay or Android Auto) and I suppose most people use that for navigation these days. I've never used the built in Nav, but like I said earlier the "live map" is there on my home screen all the time.

Looks like you also don't get "IDA", but thats no loss imo, its on my current car and I've never used it.

Its strange to omit this on the "halo" car when its standard pretty much across the rest of the range.

It is possible that the hardware is there and it might be something you can activate/purchase later if you wish via the "Shop" on the infotainment.

Bought one of these the other day and looks awesome and OEM.

For Irish lads I was led to believe by dealer that the navigation 12.9 screen was standard, yes I saw it as extra but I think that's just for the Ida system I could be wrong and would need to establish.
The performance pack forced the semi slick which in total added over 7k.
I see a Dealer in Dublin has now put an advert for edition 50's ie open for
Orders. I was led to believe the Irish allocation was met so also a bit strange.

Same here, my car has had yearly dealer servicing and they use Shell Helix Pro 0w-30, in the beginning there weren't many manufactures making it to 504 spec and the VW oil came in the same style bottles as the Shell stuff, now it looks like Castrol, Motul make it to 504 spec.

The bongs are back (sos, travleasist l, ect) happens just like thay used to , anyone know if a replaced part has individual warranty and if so how long for and failing that how much is this going to cost to assuming ££££, also had the puddle lights fail one replaced a year or 2 ago then the others just gone. 21 reg mk8

Any help is appreciated

Came back on here to see if it was happening to anyone else.  My bongs are back before and after the software update that wiped my settings.  Front assist, travel assist, SOS, plus a newish one of "Data not available" popping up.   Mine is also a 21 plate.

I'm on an extended warranty for a couple more months and car is in for service and MOT next month and asked for this to be looked at.
