    Unable To Attach Radio Station Logos After Software Update

    It was my understanding VAG removed the manual logo ability due to "vulnerabilities". Sounds like someone had found a way to exploit that functionality for something VAG didn't want you to do.

    Dipstick Maximum Oil Level

    I guess it's open to interpretation where the cut-off lines are and what specific owner's manual you reference. I don't belive the image below is specific to your vehicle, so maybe it's not applicable, just something I searched for from VW.

    Dipstick Maximum Oil Level

    Always assumed over filling has the ability to increase crankcase pressure causing seal/gasket issues and/or foaming of the oil.

    Dipstick Maximum Oil Level

    I'm surprised at the comments to leave it with ~500ml over filled.

    Front Assist Calibration?

    Huh? Other companies offer ADAS calibration, not just VW dealers. It's also not laser, it's a camera viewing the road looking for lane markings. I belive Audi uses the same principle, also requiring the same calibration/alignment.

    Coil ground wire part number?

    For that part number, minimum order quantity is 5, at like $20+ for EACH (for a total of $100+). I think you can find something else, or visit an auto-wrecker and pull one yourself.

    NAR 2021 Maps Available for Download for MST2 (MIB2)

    I don't believe it has a volume name (blank), but I don't think that's an issue as it's using CID for validation.

    What did you do to your mk7 today?

    My dealer in Calgary said they only sell concentrate now, the premix down to -40C/F wasn't good enough for some areas

    NAR 2021 Maps Available for Download for MST2 (MIB2)

    The map data went just over 16GB after V7, so they had to move to a bigger SD card size. The next card size after 16GB is 32GB.

    Obtaining service history of used vehicle

    I'm trying to track down the service history of my used 2017 Alltrack. Using Carfax for reference, I asked the dealer listed (there's only one) for a list of the work performed. They seemed agreeable in principle to my request, but where unable to retreive anything. They say that it's because...
