Why are software updates important?

With the software updates, you receive updates that are also available for your vehicle after purchase. You need a We Connect contract for this. Due to a legal requirement, your one-time consent to the use of data is required so that we can send the data for the ID. software Over-the-Air to your vehicle. Simply log in to myVolkswagen now and give your consent.
