Has anyone found v1983 software to download yet? My dealership said they've had it in today, but I'd rather install it myself than wait and pay them for an appointment.
The file is nowhere to be found on the internet for free. A few people who claim to have it want money for it or only install it remotely for you without giving you the file (for a fee). I've been looking for it every single day.

Yeah, I'd been reading your posts, so I assumed not. Bizzare, 1941 and 1969 were available on mib solution well before my local dealers had them. I'm not paying a random person for it, so I guess I'll just keep waiting... lame.

Actually, scratch that. I just rang my vw dealer and they booked it in to have 1983 installed tomorrow. They said it's apparently specifically for a comms fault, which is classed as a recall, and won't be chargable for me even though I'm out of warranty. Hopefully that'll fix the sos error that's been on my dash solidly since friday and save me the cost of a diagnostic appointment!

It is also now on recall list, probably that is the same update :)

I've been in for mine, it wasn't for 1983, unfortunately. It was a minor setting tweek to allow guests users to use the sos function. They had 1983 at the time, but refused to install it, even though they were already doing recall work and a health check, unless I paid them £150... so I told them to jog on. I'll wait for it to appear online and install it myself.

Did you notice any changes? I'm booked in next week, I'll mention 1983 too.
