Lane assist

[NGD]

Picked up my Mk iv 1.5 etec on Monday and the lane assist is already getting really annoying. Is there a quick way of disabling the function without having to go through the menu on the infotainment screen?

No, you have to do it via the infotainment system. 

[SteveTheElder]

Can be done via the steering wheel controls. On the right hand spoke the upper button gives access to the Assist Systems. Use the chrome wheel to scroll to Lane Assist then click that wheel to untick the box.

After a few seconds the menu will close by itself.

AFAIK it can’t be permanently disabled, so has to be done each journey.

 

To turn off the vibration you need to go through the infotainment system. This setting persists.

yes most annoying thing on this car with the stupid start&stop (worse i ve ever seen on a car since he shut the moteur even the car is not totally stopped !)

 

so with OBD11 i modded the lane assist to "last remembererd setting" so i don't have to desactived every time i start the car

I recently moved from my 10 year old Superb to a 2 year old Octavia 4. I love the styling but not so impressed with the infotainment system. The car is already booked into the dealer under waranty to have software updated and/or the MIB unit replaced as I could not set up a new primary user. However what I find very annoying is the fact that the lane assist can't be permanently turned off. I drive a lot on twisty country roads - not straight motorways - and its forever nagging me and putting up warnings on the dash. Isn't there some way of disabling it without having to do it every time the engine restarts?

Apparently so, yes.

Just coded my lane assist off permanently using OBD eleven

Good work @Andy585!

 

I was looking on the forum to see how to change Lane Assist with OBD 11 so it would remember the last setting and found the post by @Jorgeminator which may help save others sanity 🤣
