Discover Media Pro new problem

GrumpyGranddad said:

In the past i’ve had an issue where having set the speed limit warning to visual and audible it always defaulted to vidusl only after a few days. Now it is always defaulted to off when I start my van for a new journey. Also any destinations saved as favourites in my Sat Nav disappear if i park up for any longer than a few minutes. Very frustrating having to reenter destinations. Anybody else had this?
I’ve also discovered a ‘Service Mode’ menu by holding the Media Pro Menu button for 5 or 10 seconds. Anybody used this menu for anything?

Hi GG,

there was / is a discussion on the T6 forum regarding the service mode on T6.1

mines a t6 so it uses a different platform, I can’t add any more info I’m afraid.

you know a company who does though !

Hi GG

I have had the default to visual speed warning from new, but only occasionally has it gone off completely. Its annoying.

I have a completely new Media Pro fault though which I haven't seen mentioned anywhere. Using Google Maps in CarPlay the screen looks fine to start with but then the map image gradually breaks up and the touchscreen becomes unresponsive. If I click back to another function and go back to maps its fine again but then reverts after a few minutes. The thing is its only google maps - all other CarPlay functions are rock solid. I cannot figure out how or why this is happening. Any thoughts?

Have you got off line maps on your phone, also are you using a plain map background or the satellite image, if satellite it needs time to download, depending on your phone signal connection. I was trying out all three map systems on a long journey last weekend, VW maps, Apple Maps and google maps, when I switched to google maps not a lot shown on the screen at first until it downloaded the satellite image, as I had selected that option. Jury still out on which of the three map systems I prefer.

I’ve seen that screen break up when using Waze.

Hello
My Google map has started mashing up occasionally. Anyone had this, where the map itself (not the side bars) starts to pixelate? If I the full the whole screen with the map, then revert to the map/music combo it seem to clear, but only temporarily…???

This won’t help with the issue but I have used the VW nav, Google nav and Tomtom nav for iPhone through CarPlay. For what it’s worth I have found the Tomtom the most user friendly and reliable of all 3. It loads faster, is always up to speed on traffic etc and gives less silly directions than the others. Just a thought……

Yes Tim, this is exactly the same issue I have been having for a good few weeks now. Also gathered from others on here its a common fault. Also lots on Apple forums saying it that it affects a lot of cars with VW based infotainment including VW Skoda Seat etc and suggestions that a car firmware update in October has caused a conflict. iOS 16.2 doesn’t resolve it. It has also been suggested that a forthcoming VW update in 2023 will fix it. I have resorted to using built in VW nav (not great) until the fix comes.
