    yeah, seems random on mine too, and not appear for days (or so it seems - maybe I just press it automatically)! The message is true though, as using the VW satnav can be soooo frustrating because of all it's problems........

    It's nowhere near as annoying at the "Caution! Possibility of frost on road" message that comes up on the dash and beeps audibly at you when the temp is below 5 degrees or thereabouts, but then you may not get temps that low in Sydney. This warning was going off regularly today while driving in Canberra and I bet it could cause accidents if it startles you!

    also the nag message stays on screen until you click OK - at least on the old Garmin the message drops away after 30 seconds or so...I wonder if we had Voice activated you could just yell out "OK!!"

    Could be weather related given you're In Victoria and getting ours from Monday - two more trips x 2 today with no message, that puts me on a six drive streak of no message.

    Perhaps we need to start a leaderboard.

    The NAV message is irritating and the general feel I get from the other messages is that they are condescending and assume you area total moron. I'm sick of products being designed for the lowest common denominator. Think of the Children!!!!

    Perhaps we can petition VAG to have a parental control installed enabling us to turn off the stupid reminders and messages....

    Surely there must be a VCDS tweak to turn this off?

    With BMW's you can (using the equivalent to VCDS), so I reckon there must be a way.
