| Mar 201710000 mi | Radio/navy system display would flicker for about 10 minutes after first start of the day. Also, would not switch from night to day display. VW was contacted, a software update was performed. Dealer could not recreate problem after repair. The flickering seems to be corrected, but the display still will not switch from night to day at times. I think the radio/nav head is at fault. Still working with dealer and VW for resolution. This issue is tough due to the intermittent nature. | ||
