The 9088 Recall is a MHEV software update package for the eTSI model Golf 8 with the 48V battery. Some of the control units get updated which are not listed in the TPI but I suspect is similar to another MHEV TPI update and these are 01 Engine/ 19 Gateway / 21 48V Battery Module and CC Alternator module.Another update. After more than a month my Golf 8 style etsi is still with the dealer (Peter Cooper, Shirley, Southampton) following the update recall
VW 9088-1 they applied resulted in most of the assist systems becoming unavailable plus loss of other functions.
It has been passed to VW Germany who have not communicated back to the dealer for over 3 weeks now.
Car was basically fine on 1803 before the update was applied, no-one seems to know what recall 9088-1 was supposed to achieve, I had hoped it was 1890, does anybody out there know?
Waiting to hear from VW customer services what they can offer, although I sense know the answer... pretty disgusting really.
If you f..k up the gateway that's where you get problems with all the other units...
