they are two different systems. one is to help you park either parallel or in a bay and the other is to see where you are reversing if you don't use the park assist. I didn't say nuts in my last post either! :wink: customer services are clueless!! if you don't press the button for park assist then the camera will show on the screen. if you use the park assist system then the camera is disabled. that's how it works on the tiguan

This is all very strange, i've ordered park assist and the camera and my dealer hasn't said anything, my order is currently being processed. ???

My dealer just called me about something unrelated and I asked him about this.  He said he's had GT models come through with both of these options on.  It's all a bit strange.

I think your dealer is wrong. Plenty of people retro fit the camera and it works perfectly with park assist. If some GT models have this on then he's talking rubbish. case of another dealer not knowing the first thing about what they sell!

So my dealer isn't wrong then?  He has confirmed that be doesn't think there's a problem with ordering both items.

Great video.  Is the button that has a P and a little steering wheel the park assist one?
