Re: Strong diagonal crosswind causing strange noise

My Taigo R line has the roof bars but can't say there is any noticeable increase in wind noise when coming from a 45 degree angle. In fact in wind from any direction the car is remarkably quiet compare to other cars I've previously owned. Sounds like a door seal or bonnet seal issue or something sim...

Re: The Watch Corp

Somehow this does not seem right. I've looked on Google and from a number of sites offering replacement batteries for Hugo Boss watches the standard price seems to be £65.95 which includes the battery and resealing the watch to preserve the watertight characteristics. There are some companies offeri...

Re: Display Touch not work.

Had the same issue with my touchscreen a year ago when my car was around a month old. Despite the best efforts of VW in Germany to resolve the issue my car ended up in the dealership where the whole unit was replaced under warranty. I'd try VW support as your dealers response of waiting for the next...

Re: Poor sound quality (from Spotify)

Agree that the sound system is not as good as some makes of cars that come with premium brand systems. However I've not noticed any real deterioration in the quality when listening to Spotify. Remember the unit connects wirelessly using bluetooth to your phone so I guess there can be a drop in quali...

Re: We Connect

Still working with the new VW app. Having recently returned from France in the past week I've noticed that the unit does not recognise/find a number of the smaller villages you see scattered around the country. Also if you don't use the full correct spelling then again destination's are not found. E...

Re: Metallic noise from transmission

My March 2022 Taigo came fitted with the warning triangle in the compartment on the tailgate, saved me having to buy one when holidaying in France. Not sure, as I don't know any other Taigo owners, if this was standard at the time or if it now comes as an optional extra. Perhaps I was lucky that a S...

Re: Andoid Auto issues and compass not available

WeConnect is the old VW app, you now need to download the new VW app from Play Store. The new app is just named Volkswagen and works similar to WeConnect. Not had the errors you are getting with the infotainment unit but would suggest you do a reset on the unit to save yourself a long journey to you...

Re: Exceeding speed limit alert resetting itself

Not had the issue of it changing the speed parameters, ie 3mph over to 6mph over the speed limit but it does occasionally turn itself off altogether. I can only assume this may happen when there is a background over the air update to the mapping/software. I've no evidence of this but can't think of ...

Re: Maps on cockpit

Must be differences with the software dependant on the country where you live. Strange though that the mapping software in the UK is dated 23 June yet 21st November on your vehicle. However the Hardware and car software is a later version. Had my car in for its first service three weeks ago and the ...
