Hello Everyone!
I have been reading this forum for many years, and I am thrilled to announce that I have finally acquired a Golf GTE MY2023! It's great to meet you all!
While I'm not new to the Volkswagen family (I already own a Polo), this new Golf has brought up many questions that I can't find answers to easily. I am hoping you can help me out.
Let's start with this topic, which seems quite interesting.
As I mentioned, my Golf is a 2023 model, and I've had it for a few days now.
I have the travel assist feature, and according to the owner's manual (both the physical copy and the digital one on the MIB3), it includes "Assisted Lane Changing." To use this feature, it needs to be enabled through the following steps:
1) Open the Assist system menu
2) Select Travel Assist
3) Active or deactivate assisted lane changing as a sub-function of Travel Assist.
Despite following the guidelines, I haven't been able to find the Travel Assist menu.
In this video (linked below), which features a car with older hardware than mine, it suggests that I need to click on the grey car icon — something I am unable to do.
Now, here's the interesting part: a user with a Seat Tarraco mentioned in the comments section of the video that he lost this functionality after an update.
Do any of you know more about this? Is there a specific action we need to take to make it work? Could VW have removed this feature, perhaps to include it exclusively in the ID cars?
Last but not least, I noticed some mentions of this feature in this forum, where it was introduced by Volkswagen under the title "Travel Assist with swarm data." While it may be unrelated, I have currently set the swarm data sharing to "off." I am unsure if this affects anything or not.
