Software gremlins, SOS warning, infotainment system hanging
Hello all, loving our new-ish MY21 199 Ocean. Thought I’d share this…. Some intermittent gremlins - such as the ”SOS” orange light coming on, together with orange warning triangle. Has happened a few times, sometimes at the same time as the infotainment system going on mute. Easily fixed on...

Same story for me. But had a(nother) software update a few weeks ago and so far so good.
Agree with all the tips:
- for SOS problem go to make a call using the button then cancel it. This reset the SOS problem a few times for me.
- blank infotainment screen or the perpetual “profile loading” prompt I could only fix by disconnecting one lead from the battery, waiting 5-10mins, then reconnecting. This is what VW assist did the first time it happened to me. Not what we should be doing for a new vehicle, but got the infotainment reset and all the other stuff - satnav, radio etc - back too.
Just hoping the last software update really has fixed it!
