Mk7.5 Golf - News and Discussion Thread

I can't work out why people are concerned about TJA.

I mean you're not wrong, people should enjoy the car - but I have to say I am not sure what you'll enjoy in (a) a traffic jam and/or (b) under 60km/h.

And yeah truth be told it really isn't that hard to drive in traffic jams, but idk something about being in the future and 'all that' ahahaha! It's really cool, and it remains to be seen where it'll be a gimmick or not. I have certainly been 'wowed' with it, after experiencing it in an Audi A4 estate.

Well I'll find out next month. But if anyone else picks up their car soon. Would be good to know.

I just took delivery last Friday for a gti with DAP. My vin is in the sequence of WVWZZZAUZJ.... and built may 17. No traffic jam assist unfortunately. Do have ALG and lane assist only above 60km/h.

That might have change since Feb though. This is the response I got from VWA from their Facebook page:
Hi. Thanks for reaching out to us. Unfortunately the Traffic Jam feature is not available in our Australian Market. Thanks. Agatha@Volkswagen.

That's disappointing. Why not?

The VW website is advertising TJA as a feature of the upcoming Arteon but it's not mentioned for any other model even though it was talked about in articles like the one linked by frostywinter.

I have asked the exact same question. Didn't get any response from them there after. Really do hope it is just a software update down the track. The owner's manual indicate that TJA needs ACC & Lane assist (With ALG checked). So far lane assist just stops running for speeds below 60.

Hey guys, any of you know how to get the odometer to show up on the active info display? I just zeroed mine and could get the total kms to show up😕

Yeah its easy mate when active cruise is not on hit the button that turns it off and the section that shows set speed and lane assist will turn to total kilometres driven since new
