MIB 2 dead?

[Kiaorana]

Mattaus, that's exactly how mine started, it was doing what you described maybe once a fortnight for a couple of months, then all of a sudden, it completely died out.

If I were you I'd go to VW and ask them to apply the software upgrade straight away, otherwise you run the risk of the unit turnif itself off and then they won't be able to apply the update. I now have to wait four weeks for a new unit to be shipped from Germany.

Well that has me worried now! I will give them a call ASAP. Thanks.

Please let us know how you get on with your dealer. My local dealer (which also sells a heap of other brands) does not even know there is a problem, well the desk staff that is. If you have some joy at your end that will give me something to use.

My story is I have had the black screen about 4 times now, fixed if I turn off the car and wait about 30 seconds before restart. Biggest issue is the "Park Pilot not available" error message going into reverse which must be a weekly occurrence now.

I'm booked in for the 16th of Feb. Could have been sooner but I needed a courtesy car and that was as early as they could provide one. I explained the issue to the lady on the phone, she talked to someone and said bring it and we'll check the car out.

Doesn't mean they're going to solve it, but I was very clear about what the issue was, why I wanted it looked at, and what I was 100% sure the fix involved. We'll see how I get on once they actually have my vehicle...

This is an old update, my golf my16 picked up from the dealer last week has software version of '0622'.

Please note that I had an intermittent issue with the rear camera basically one time it did not the camera at all.

It's outrageous in a 50k car.

Here is the technical release from VW America. I wonder why Australia is lagging behind.

Jake, I really hope they'll sort it out asap. I'm pissed off.

So you have a version a lot higher than 0613 and are still having problems?
Doesn't sound like these patches are going to cure all the reported problems.

Fan-tas-tic.

I didn't even think to check my software version. Will try to remember when I get home.

I'm not having all the problems you have, the only issue for me is at one time the rear view camera did not display for a period of time but again this is intermittently.

I'm having the same issue with the screen going black a few times

How do i check the version? Thanks!

That's not specific to MIB IIs.

I've had this happen to my 2015 MIB I a few times now. Usually shifting to neutral and back into reverse brings the image up
