What they did to fix it? Is it likely to happen again? My guess is that in future, they will say to bring it into the dealership instead of OTA updates so it doesn't happen again.

Aidey Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Ok she's back 😍 The update that i did at home was the culprit apparently , it did not install properly and killed the system, I was on 1804 , just checked the system and its now 1896 The salesman who brought it back said as he was driving it back another system update appeared, just had a look at that and i'm scared to press Update... its 908mb in size..

Glad you’ve got her back! Assume that should read “it’s now 1896”? But it’s not confidence inspiring that the OTA software update killed the system completely. Have you dared pressed “update” yet? Is it another system update or along the lines of the ones we often get? Aidey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidey Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Yes i pressed the Update button again, this is the screen that was showing this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldfort Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 @Aidey I think that update only comes OTA. The same update was mentioned by our dealer when they updated ours. It's marked OTA only on the printout they gave us. Aidey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike2727 Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 I still do not trust it, car just came back, and now the same day you get another huge update that correct errors ? As for me I will only do updates when I do not need the car and I can get it to a dealer right away in case it goes sour. There does not seem to be a clear and well thought out update policy at VW Looks like this is not going to change anytime soon IMO Booth11 and Aidey 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aidey Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Just been out in the car and it all seems to have updated successfully. last thing it did was a digital manual install , so hopefully no more large ota updates for a long time please VW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darlo Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 Just a quick one… my car had all the latest updates allegedly when it was in for its first service on Tuesday. No issues since the update. I got in my car after work today and another update was required. It was a big one at 900+ mb’s I think. I got home and and it said it will take 30 mins to install so I can’t drive the car for that period of time! New one on me this. Anyone else had this today?

mike2727 Posted May 19, 2022 Report Share Posted May 19, 2022 If they have the same issues in the States, I can promise you VW has a lot of lawsuits coming their way dopper99 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will check later and see what state it is in 🤣 Aidey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
