2015 GTI Driver Assistance Voice Control Rort

[Pologti15]

Hey All,

Has anyone had much success in activating this function. I am thinking about contacting 3rd Party VW specialists to see if they are able to assist with this activation ?

Just wondering, if anyone else has approached companies over than VW ?

[DubSteve]

Also curious to see how this goes or if anyone has had any good outcomes with this?

It is not an SD card. You are paying for an activation code/pin. Can only be turnt on at a dealer and would be a one time use thing, i would assume.

Yes I had mine activated.. It's an optional extra that the dealer failed to mention. Paid $400 for it to be activated. Works well though once you work out its quirks even with my accent . I am surprised that this should be part of the car...

The title says driver assistance voice control. Is this a new feature or just the old "dial John Doe" or "play cd"?

[Harrydhillon]

It's newish... Sort of integrates into the whole unit... Navigation, music control, phone. When you press the voice command button, any command that is high lighted in red can be executed.

Did you just go back to the dealer after you bought the car and get it done?

[Harrydhillon]

Yup. They had to "order" it in. My Car is MY15 with DA Pack hence it cost $400. Cars without DA Pack is about $200. This is due to the sat Nav part of it.

Thanks I will be looking at doing that in the near future then.

I know that it is annoying having it just sitting there and not being able to use it at all.

[Harrydhillon]

I am the same.. The button just sits there just asking to be pressed! Lol
