Woo-hoo, The Great 5F Shortage of 2017 is over! Got a call from my dealership this morning...my 5F is in, and I'm getting it installed tomorrow. Hopefully everyone else's will show up soon.
Could this be 5F (not SF), as 5F is the internal code name in VW's VAS system (and also VCDS), for the infotainment system unit (as per the photo at the beginning of the thread).
since they have replaced numerous units and the problem persists.
VW rep came to dealership today (2/17/17) to download a software update from VW...took 3+ hours because of connection speed...another 1 hour for the download into my car...but, after all said and done, my Discover System is fully capable...so, please ask your dealer if the software is available or when a rep will come!!! GLGood thing for car play. My brand new gti the nav never worked so maybe wait a few weeks for the solution.

GLjust got my car back from the dealer. They worked with the VW corproate tech line. They were told this is a known issue that will be resolved with a firmware update sometime this month, so i'm in a holding pattern.
