So the van has been into VW for some MORE software updates to fix SOS issues etc. Unfortunately they fecked up my reverse camera. It was a retrofit so obviously they wrote over the coding. After an hour searching on here I've recoded it myself with my OBD11. Never looked into long coding before...

...answering another post it's not the LTE it's the GPS/GNSS antenna (got the two mirrors mixed up) but still the likely cause of the error as the SOS system can't determine your position. Antennas on a 6.1 in my post here: https://www.t6forum.com/threads/t6-vs-t6-1-wing-mirrors.49495/#post-651988

Alpine are working on their own usb c solution, wait for that

Do you have pictures of the system to help identify it? Also what type of van do you have? From previous questions about the SOS module I assume it's a 6.1 but which model?

Sadly, no don’t have a fault logger. But it’s booked in with VW, so they’ll be getting a list of issues to work through and diagnose. It’s been trouble free since new, and sods law, just as we are approaching 3 years (end of March) this has started. Seems strange that they all occur at once -...

...and they filled the van with swarf cutting the hole. There was swarf in some of the connectors so the rear view camera didn’t work. It wouldn’t surprise me if they got swarf in some of your cab roof cabling. I don’t have any radio issues, but I think that fin is the SOS; DAB is in the wing...

Engine Map? Adblue Map? DSG map? Infotainment FW? there was a SOS FW issue a while back? anyone else have an idea?

If it's under warranty then VW assist is pan European and might be able to help? Of course if the SOS system is down the obvious way of getting in touch with them is likely not going to work...

No way! Really?

...factory headunit holds several vehicle menus that i doubt will be accessible on that new unit and also removing the factory stereo will break the SOS unit also If you are seriously considering i would be looking into what factory functions it will keep like rear camera/parking display/menus etc

Unbelievably after months of it working flawlessly, one of the major problem is back of slow boot (bearing in mind the 5F, SOS etc were all replaced). 5-10 mins, as this is only associated with one of the many issues I had I'll start a new thread.

Good news, sounds like the actual root cause was a faulty LTE/4G modem meaning neither the SOS or the infotainment system had any connectivity. Forcing the maximum privacy is logical (as that's all it can do) but you'd think at some point adding a message as to why that's all it could do...

Coolant leak / Mystery. help!! SOS!! Hi everyone. Wondering if anyone can help please. I have a coolant leak / mystery. My van seems to be drinking coolant with no trace? Put approx ltr in a few weeks ago and just had to top it up as the light came on? Anyone else had a similar issue or...

Speaking of the devil, yesterday I received an email that the SOS retation kit is going to be sent soon. I waited from October to receive it.... So what do I need to retain the usb-c?

Luckily I'm still in warranty, I've a green sos light. Sat nav seams okay, I'll post on 18th either way, so you know what's what.

Out of nowhere we got this error this evening. It’s a 2023 T6.1 that’s covered 6000 miles. I’m assuming it’s just we won’t be able to make an SOS call with this error. Is that the case? Just trying to gauge the importance of the error as getting to VW during the week is difficult and I guess...

Yes it’s for the sos , but why is it disabled ?

Hey I have the same problem. Pop top was done summer of 2022, had an intermittent fault for the last year or so & now every time you start the van it’s a fault. VW won’t touch as diagnostics said it’s the aerial not connected fault. I’m tempted to get a new aerial & plug in at the connectors at...

Hi Carter333 How did you get on? I dropped the battery on mine for 15 mins and the globe goes white again now but still same problems, I’ve been told to go to main dealer also now.

The public have fallen hook, line and sinker for technology, which is a dream come true for manufacturers, "you want wind assist sir? that's only an extra £8/month, you'll barely notice it." Yeah, until it goes wrong.
