I gave up messing around with primary user registration as the car does remember key specific settings in guest mode.
Mirror dip, rear wiper in reverse deactivation, aircon sync, individual mode and such like are all remembered.
As I don’t use ACC or nav I’m not in the slightest bit bothered with registering as primary user once the initial curiosity vanished.
In fact as time has gone on (touch wood) my random bings and bongs have lessened to near none.
I do wonder how many mk8’s were rejected though going by some of the issues I’ve seen reported.
All I tend to get now is an occasional blank radio/media screen which is easily resolved.
Yeah, I’ve cursed it now by writing that.
