An accident with pressure washer bottle coming off and hitting bonnet . Have used Sam from Dent Sos (Dorset) before on previous car with great results. Came to work his magic on the van and spotted another dent that I’d missed. All fixed with skill and a friendly professional nature.

Hi all. I’ve been having the SOS emergency call since I got the vehicle (6.1 T32) however recently I’ve noticed that when the error kicks in and the SOS light does not turn green, it really messes with the GPS on my carplay connected phone. This happens with all the maps apps and occurs even...

Hey All. Does anyone know what sort of antenna the T6.1 SOS antenna uses? I’m wondering, if it’s just a standard GSM antenna, if I can replace it with a multifunctional antenna that has GSM and internet? Thanks.

Question for you @lauraj Assuming your SOS button on the roof of the cab has the Red light illuminated (not green as it should be) are you still able to make SOS calls? My SOS light is Red but if I press the button it starts the process of making the call (you have the opportunity to cancel...

Hello, I am installing a new headunit Alpine LX-f115d and I want to retein the SOS e-call. I have ordered the retention kit (it is out of stock for the moment) However I was wondering once the kit arrives, I would to know where it needs to be installed. As I am removing the dash panels...

...I have a t6.1 with a skyline pop top, as part of this they relocated the aerial to the back of the pop top. Recently I've been getting the sos fault and to take it to vw. When I rang them they immediately said it just needs the update. However after them having it for most the day they...

Hey sorry didn’t see this post. Yes I think it still goes through, will double check tomorrow though. Have you had any lucky with Skyline?

Yep starts making emergency call once pressed, I manually stop before connection but light still says red afterwards

Hello everyone, I’ve the same problem - intermittent issue with SOS warning light. Anyone get an resolution?

I don’t have nav either. I think this module is purely used for the SOS function but not 100%

Well 2-weeks into ownership (70 plate, 29k on clock) of our T6.1 Kombi we’ve had a day of Infotainment unit restarting every few mins and then the SOS failure error Having read this thread seems SOS unit replacement has done job for people? Contacted dealer to see what they have to say. Has...

Anyone replaced the lte (sos) aerial on a t6.1 with a shark fin?

We can sort this Alpines fitting kit and connects SOS retention

Is it a Connects2 sos interface ?

Brilliant. I'll check for that. I don't appear to have navigation as standard; is the GPS module used so the SOS call knows where I am.

It's been back in today for the fitter to look at it and they don't really know what the issue is. They think the SOS is interfering with DAB reception and / or possible some interference from the loom adapter. They're going to speak to the loom manufacturer and Alpine and get back to me...

Hi all,recently changed my head unit and sos warning light on the dash permanently on,I seen a post about this a while back about it being coded out. I'm here in Ireland (west) was wondering if any one over here had same problem ond got it sorted,also wondering if it would pass DOE/NCT with the...

Also is there any evidence of the the 4G/LTE modem working? Do you have the correct lights on the SOS module overhead? If you go into the settings can you get to things like the shop or data plans? Reason I ask is there is a smattering of folks having issues with the SOS module or modem.

Yes exactly this. Make sure green light is on the SOS panel above head first which will confirm there is a connection from the unit itself. That was my original issue that was identified with this post.

Great news that the VW software update fixed the Android Auto audio issue. Out of interest which software version did VW install on your head unit?
