Hi,

 

I have a 6-month old Superb iV. I have the Virtual Cockpit configured to a custom view, essentially the sport setup (central dial speed/revs) with audio & range configured for the side images.

Recently (I'm pretty sure it only started a few weeks ago), whenever I select "start" for a route from the SatNav the VC display changes to show the navigation directions in the middle and I have to click twice on the "cycle through VC displays" button on the RHS of the steering wheel to get my chosen config back.

I'm sure it didn't do this before. I've checked all the settings, and can't find anything I might have changed, accidentally or intentionally, which might cause this. Has anyone else seen this, or am I imagining that this didn't happen before? If anyone can point me to a setting I may have missed it would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks, Steve.

It would of always done this, it’s a normal feature of the virtual cockpit even from the pre facelift. Mine does the exact same thing  

@SteveMcK do you mean it changes the entire VC display to the blank one that shows only range, sat nav arrow and speed?

Yep.  Mine does this.  From memory, I think it even does it if I use Carplay for navigation.

Just been out for a look. Mine definitely doesn't exhibit this behaviour. VC retains all display settings when you plot a navigation route.

Mine's never done it either. Might be depending on which custom view is setup or something like that

Not quite, see the attached before & after pictures. I have been playing with various VC console layouts, but I really don't remember it doing this until recently. It's very irritating, looks like I'll just have to add it to the list of "infotainment" annoyances.

Your VC looks very subtly different to mine in terms of UI design! 

Strange how they're different? Mines a May 2021 Build

Interesting indeed, I got mine in November 2021, the SW/HW version screen is:

 

I've got a lower device part number and software number. That probably explains it

Well, this is really weird, I've just noticed that it isn't changing now. I can "start" a route, and the display remains as before. I'll just have to chalk it up to another bizarre feature/bug.
