Hi all, not sure if it is a setting, but had my gti a couple of days and can't work this out. When I use my apple car play and use the navigation on it I get the following. I set my route and soon as I start, the car sat nav appears on the dashboard between dials, regardless of what I have selected to appear there.
I am using apple maps, not even the car built-in one, so not sure why it pops on the dash. Any ideas?
also on a side note, I am not sure if the auto full beam is working correctly. I activated it and get the blue symbol with the A in the middle, but only now and again it goes white, i thought it would go on and off between white and blue when a car was coming towards me, indicating off and on. very rarely does it when a car coming towards me , but they not like flashing me to turn my lights off ?

Re: car sat nav map comes on dash when using apple nav
If your VW sat nav is set to show between the dials, it always comes up when the car is first switched on. Drives me potty so I just leave the car sat nav set to the touchscreen. Doesn’t pop up then between my dials unless I change it.
You also have matrix leds. Having used them myself, they dim themselves when you enter a well lit area. They’re only really noticeable on roads with no street lights, then they work really well.

Re: car sat nav map comes on dash when using apple nav
Shouldn’t be arrows unless you’ve put a destination in on the VW sat nav so that’s a weird one. Is there a destination set?
Re: car sat nav map comes on dash when using apple nav
there is a destination, but only in apple maps, so really can't work out why I still get arrows on the dash as not using the VW sat nav. Dealer told me ,that's how it works with apple car play, so not surelancslad1985 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 27, 2022 2:54 pm Shouldn’t be arrows unless you’ve put a destination in on the VW sat nav so that’s a weird one.
