Driving my mk8 2021 gti today, and found a couple of issues, one of which is rather alarming. After our dog walk on a lovely sunny day, got back to the car, I logged in as primary user as normal and the car started CarPlay and loaded google maps, but not in satellite view as it was the journey to get to our walk. Set home destination and instead of a voice guidance it just beeped at us when a turn was needed.
Then I was in a 60mph national limit which the road sign camera had picked up with ACC on as normal. Then with no road signs at all on the stretch of road, it randomly dropped the limit to 37mph and immediately started braking, much to the guy behind me annoyance. Without doing anything it then went back up to 60 for a few seconds and then did it again! Bloke behind came roaring past!
I then reached a village and a 30mph sign and it dropped me down to 30, then without any signs took me down to 19mph. This repeated two or three times. There were no other cars around so I let it do what it wanted. I got no errors or fault messages. I pulled over, turned off the car, logged out and opened door. Started up again and the car play worked with google maps in satellite view with voice directions again? The ACC was then behaving again! What on earth is up with these cars?
I am on 1666 and did notice the other day the entry for Display unit/control panel hardware and software were unknown, but other times I go in it says H46 and 2092. Why does it sometimes know this information and other times it forgets it? To me it sounds like a communication issue between the systems.
Mine also forgets the climate Sync and keyless entry is intermittent which is frustrating as hell. My previous Mk7 and Mk 7.5 never had any of these problems. Any suggestions on any of that? Time to talk to the garage!
