    Emergency SOS Error

    So there’s a software update 1668 which I had on my previous car. The master technician said that the SOS works off the Esim which has its own signal and VW don’t have amazing coverage in the UK atm so when the SOS error comes up the car has lost signal, he also said things like CarX2 and other...

    Emergency SOS Error

    Emergency SOS Error

    Thanks for the info bud, the green light goes off and the light when you pop open to reveal the button is red but come to think it’s red even when the green light is on and the system is working. it’s just one thing after another, my golf was built week 42 so should have been fine.

    Software Update

    From my experience having spoken to many people in my local dealership they are not been totally honest about what they know. I’ve found there’s a lot of we’re in contact with VW but can not disclose any details. Since having my second Mk8 which is running software 1664 touch wood the only issue...
