This is a bit tough to explain...
So recently, and seemingly out of nowhere, my 2018 GTI Autobahn (Canadian) developed a strange issue with the infotainment. When I turn on the car, after any extended period of time, it immediately switches the radio off, and nothing I do can turn the radio back on. This had be stumped for a while. I couldn't figure out why tuning, volume, etc... wasn't working. That was, until I switched over to the car's phone. It turns out that now, whenever I turn the car on, it automatically switches from whatever I was listening to over to the phone. It essentially "lifts the car's phone off the receiver" but without actually lifting my cell phone off the receiver. So the cars phone is on, my cell phone is off, and the radio won't work until I hang up the car's phone.
Has anyone experienced this issue?
Is there an easy solution to resolve it?
Or should I just suck it up and bring my car to the dealer to re-load the software onto the infotainment?
Cheers,
Parker
