2016 Golf R
Hi everyone (new member!) ...

The last few months a have had an issue with the infotainment unit in my 2016 Golf R in Canada. Blue tooth, maps, apple car play all no longer work saying either not available or I need to contact the dealer for an activation key. Dealer not surprisingly has not been helpful (told me I need a new head unit) but it doesn't appear they attempted to reinstall the firmware (just checked if eligible for an update which it wasn't so I don't think did anything).

Here is my software chain: MHI2_US_VWG11_S2126_1

I have used http://mib-helper.com/ to help identify the best firmware file to download which it identifies as MHI2_US_VWG11_P3261.

However, I cannot find this file on https://mibsolution.one/. The closest I can find is MIH2_US_VWG13_P3659_2_MU1126

My question is whether or not I will be able successfully update to this firmware version or if anyone has any ideas where I might be able to find the firmware update suggested by mib-helper.

Thanks so much in advance!

You need FW with G11. If there's none on mibsolution, best to stay at current one for now.
G13 is for the facelift display (9.2 inch widescreen).
