Hi.

 

I've recently purchased a Kodaiq 2021 built/ 20 plate, and it has the Columbus infotainment jobbie, with an anaolg dash / colour lcd sreen in the middle thing.

 

Other than the batsh*tness of it forgetting the driving mode & aircare setings every time you leave it alone for 5 minutes, and the infotainment screen just being too darn low down, the only thing annoying me so far is thus:

 

Every time Waze (on wireless android auto) is telling me to use a roundabout, the little nav repeater on the dashboard tells me to go all the way round and go back on myself - no matter which exit I actually need, and no matter what Waze is showing on the main screen.

 

Has anyone else experienced this and managed to fix it, is my car just a lil bit special, or do I just have to live with it.

 

The software is fully up to date as far as I can tell ( it has done a couple of updates in the weeks since I've had it).

 

Here's hoping that this is the most annoying thing it ever does!

There's something just not quite right about the VAG software and displaying directions from CarPlay / Android Auto. My issue is with CarPlay / Apple Maps, and the direction arrow pointing to the right when approaching a motorway junction that it want me to come off at (when the slip road is, as usual for this country, to the left) - the arrow is correct on the CarPlay / Apple Maps screen, but it's wrong on the dash.

 

No idea what it is, but there are several oddities like this unfortunately. There's also plenty else wrong with the software, so if that's the only thing annoying you, you're doing well 😉.

 

ps. Yes, drive mode resets every time, it's annoying, but you learn to live with it. Top tip for the aircare setting - you really don't need it on outside of hay fever season, and if you don't suffer from hay fever, then you probably don't need it at all. It's just extra filtration, but it does have an impact on mpg (not much, but noticeable on longer journeys).

Thanks Yogi-Bear.

 

I guess I'll have to put up with it.  TBF, I usually have voice prompts on when I'm navigating somewhere I don't know so it doesn't really make that much difference, it was just odd!

 

Thanks for the info about Aircare - I'll have to look into what exactly it does more.  I assumed that it wasn't doing any pollen / dust / crap filtering if it was turned off.
