Troubleshooting
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Regulation is automatically interrupted.
•You have depressed the brake pedal.
•The selector lever of the DSG dual clutch gearbox is not in the selector lever position D.
•The vehicle has exceeded the stored speed for an extended period.
•If regulation related to driving dynamics is taking place, e.g. by TCS and ESC.
•Malfunction. Switch off the cruise control system and have it checked by a qualified workshop.
Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.
Speed limiter
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Operating the speed limiter with the turn signal and main beam lever
⇒ Operating the speed limiter via the multifunction steering wheel
⇒ Troubleshooting
The speed limiter helps to prevent the
vehicle from exceeding a speed that
you have stored.
Speed range
The speed limiter is available when driving forwards at speeds from around 30 km/h (20 mphyf.
Driving with speed limiter
You can interrupt the speed limiter function at any time by fully depressing the accelerator beyond
the point of resistance. The green warning and indicator lamp flashes as soon as the stored
speed is exceeded. The speed remains stored in the memory.
The speed limiter function is activated again automatically as soon as the speed drops below the
stored speed.
Driving downhill
Driving downhill may cause the set speed to be exceeded. The green warning and indicator lamp
flashes in this case. An acoustic warning may also be given.
Apply the foot brake to slow the vehicle down, and change down a gear as required.
How do I operate the speed limiter?
Depending on the vehicle equipment, you can operate the speed limiter either by means of the turn
signal and main beam lever ⇒ Operating the speed limiter with the turn signal and main beam lever
or via the multifunction steering wheel ⇒ Operating the speed limiter via the multifunction steering 
wheel.
The displays on the instrument cluster are identical in both cases ⇒ Fig. 140.
Operating the speed limiter with the turn signal and main beam
lever
®
Always switch off the speed limiter after use to avoid unintentional speed regulation.
•The speed limiter does not relieve the driver of their responsibility for the speed of the
vehicle. Do not drive at full throttle if it is not required.
•Use of the speed limiter in adverse weather conditions is dangerous and can cause
serious injury, e.g. through aquaplaning, snow, ice, or leaves. Only use the speed
limiter when the road and weather conditions allow it to be used safely.
•The speed limiter cannot limit the vehicle speed when travelling downhill. The vehicle
speed can increase under its own weight. Shift down a gear or brake the vehicle using
the foot brake.
WARNING

System limits
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Front Assist has physical and system-related limitations. From the driver's perspective, some Front
Assist reactions may therefore occur unexpectedly or with a delay in certain circumstances. You
should therefore always be prepared to take full control of the vehicle if necessary.
•In tight bends.
•If the accelerator is fully depressed.
•If Front Assist is switched off or faulty.
•If TCS is switched off manually.
•If ESC is taking corrective action.
•If there is a fault in several brake lights on the vehicle or on a trailer with an electrical
connection to the vehicle ⇒.
•If the radar sensor is dirty or covered.
•If there are metal objects, e.g. tracks in the road or metal plates used in roadworks, or road
signs, above and adjacent to the road.
•If the vehicle is reversing.
•Under hard acceleration.
•In snow or heavy rain.
•In case of narrow vehicles, e.g. motorbikes.
•If vehicles are travelling slightly to the left or right of your vehicle.
•If vehicles are crossing in front of your vehicle.
•If there is oncoming traffic.
•If pedestrians are standing in front of the vehicle, approaching the vehicle, or moving in the
same direction as the vehicle.
•In complex driving situations, e.g. at traffic islands.
•In unclear traffic situations, e.g. vehicles ahead are heavily braking or turning off.
•When loads or attachment parts on other vehicles protrude to the side, rear or above the normal
dimensions of the vehicle.
Switching off Front Assist
•If the vehicle is being towed.
•If the vehicle is on a rolling road test bed.
•If the vehicle is driven in areas other than public roads.
•If the radar sensor is faulty.
•After external force on the radar sensor, e.g. after a rear-end collision.
•In the event of multiple unwanted interventions.
•If the radar sensor is covered temporarily by any auxiliary equipment, e.g. auxiliary headlights.
•If the vehicle is loaded onto a truck, car ferry or motorail train.
The intelligent Pedestrian Monitoring technology cannot overcome the laws of physics,
and functions only within the limits of the system. Never let the extra convenience
afforded by the Pedestrian Monitoring system tempt you into taking any risks when
driving. The driver is always responsible for braking in time.
•If Pedestrian Monitoring issues a warning, brake your vehicle immediately depending
on the traffic situation or avoid the pedestrian.
•The Pedestrian Monitoring system cannot prevent accidents and serious injuries on its
own.
•The Pedestrian Monitoring system can issue unnecessary warnings and carry out
unwanted braking interventions in complex driving situations, e.g. on a twisting main
road.
•The Pedestrian Monitoring system can issue unnecessary warnings and carry out
unwanted braking interventions when its function is impaired, e.g. if the radar sensor is
covered or its position has been changed.
•Be prepared to take over control of the vehicle yourself at all times.
WARNING
Failure to switch off Front Assist in the situations mentioned can result in accidents and
serious injuries.

Manoeuvre braking
If the vehicle is equipped with manoeuvre braking, the manoeuvre braking function triggers the
emergency brake as soon as an obstacle is detected while reversing. The manoeuvre braking
function helps to prevent collisions. The vehicle speed must not be higher than 10 km/h (6 mphyf
The manoeuvre braking function is activated or deactivated when Park Distance Control is switched
on or off. The manoeuvre braking function is inactive for five metres after a braking operation in the
same direction of travel. The manoeuvre braking function is ready for braking again after changing
gear or position. The same restrictions apply as for Park Distance Control.
Manoeuvre braking is not active if Park Distance Control was activated automatically.
Touch the function button to switch manoeuvre braking on and off.
Display representation

Things to note in the area around the vehicle (depending on vehicle
equipmentyf
The scanned area along the side of the vehicle is automatically hidden in the following situations:
•When a vehicle door is opened.
•TCS is switched off or is taking corrective action.
•If the vehicle is stationary for longer than approximately three minutes.
The vehicle must be moved a few metres forwards or backwards in order to be able to show the
entire area around the vehicle. The missing areas are then scanned and the area around the
vehicle is calculated.

NOTICE

The use of engine oils compliant with the VW 504 00, VW 507 00 and VW 508 00 specifications
requires a fuel quality compliant with EN 228 (petrolyfDQG(1GLHVHO\f, or fuel of an equivalent
quality. Engine oils compliant with VW 504 00, VW 507 00 and VW 508 00 are therefore
unsuitable for use in a large number of markets.
If the engine has been filled with engine oil in accordance with the standards W 502 00, VW 504 00
and VW 507 00, a sticker with the relevant information will be located on the lock carrier in the

Using VW 504 00 instead of VW 508 00 may cause the vehicle's emissions values to increase
slightly.
You can also check with a qualified workshop if you are unsure whether your vehicle is equipped
with a diesel particulate filter. Volkswagen recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this
purpose.
Changing the engine oil
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
The engine oil must be changed on a regular basis. Always observe the service intervals applicable
for your vehicle ⇒ Service.
The engine oil and filter change should be carried out by a qualified workshop due to the special
tools and knowledge required, this also applies to the disposal of used oil. Volkswagen
recommends using a Volkswagen dealership for this purpose.
Please read the notes on the service intervals ⇒ Service.
Additives in the engine oil can cause new engine oil to discolour quickly. This is normal and does
not mean that the engine oil should be changed more frequently.

Data storage and services
Your vehicle is fitted with electronic control units. Some of these are required to make sure your
vehicle remains safe while others provide support while driving (driver assist systemsyf
Furthermore, your vehicle is equipped with convenience and Infotainment functions, which are also
made possible using electronic control units.
Electronic control units contain data memories that can store information regarding the vehicle
status, component load levels, maintenance requirements, technical events and faults on a
temporary or permanent basis. This information generally documents the status of a component, a
module, a system or the environment, e.g.:
•Operating states of system components, e.g. filling levels, tyre pressure, battery status.
•Status messages from the vehicle or its individual components, e.g. wheel revolutions or speed,
deceleration, lateral acceleration, display of fastened seat belts.
•Faults or malfunctions in important system components, e.g. lights, brakes.
•Information on events which damaged the vehicle.
•System reactions to specific driving situations, triggering of an airbag, intervention the stability
control systems.
•Ambient conditions, e.g. temperature, rain.
As well as performing the actual control unit functions, these data are also used to detect and
rectify faults and help Volkswagen to improve vehicle functions. The majority of these data are
temporary are processed only within the vehicle itself. Only a very small amount of data is stored in
the event memories or possibly on the vehicle key.
Reading out the vehicle's event memory
There is a diagnostic interface in the vehicle interior for reading out the event memories (on-board
diagnostic systemyf ⇒.
If you have service work performed on your vehicle, the technical data can be read out of the
vehicle together with the vehicle identification number by service employees, e.g. workshops, or
third parties such as breakdown services. Service work includes, for example, repairs,
maintenance, warranty work or quality assurance measures. The service workshop or third party
collects, processes and uses the data. The data document the vehicle's technical status, help in
troubleshooting and in improving quality and may be sent to Volkswagen in some cases.
Furthermore, the manufacturer is subject to legal product safety requirements. To make sure it
complies with these requirements, the manufacturer requires technical data from the vehicles.
Event memories in the vehicle can be reset by a service workshop as part of repair or service work.
The event memory should only be read and reset by a qualified workshop. Additional information on
the stored data is available from qualified workshops.
After a fault has been rectified, the information in the memory pertaining to the fault is deleted.
Other memory content is overwritten on an ongoing basis.
Event data recorder
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder. The main task of an event data recorder is to
record data in particular accident scenarios or accident-like situations, e.g. in the event of airbags
being triggered or a collision with an obstacle on the road. These data help in analysis of how a
vehicle system behaved in these situations. The event data recorder records data relating to driving
dynamics and the restraint system for a short period of 10 s or less. This information includes, for
example:
•how various systems in your vehicle have functioned.
•whether the seat belts of the driver and front passenger were fastened.
•the extent to which the driver pressed the brake or accelerator pedal.
•how fast the vehicle was travelling.
These data help to obtain a better understanding of the circumstances in the situations where
accidents and injuries have occurred.
Data from driver assist systems are also recorded. In addition to information about whether the
systems were switched on or off, available only to a restricted extent or inactive, it is also possible
to determine whether these functions steered, accelerated or braked the vehicle in the above-
described situations. Depending on the vehicle equipment, these systems include the following:
•Adaptive Cruise Control (ACCyf.
•Lane keeping system (Lane Assistyf.
•Park Assist.
•Park Distance Control.
•Emergency braking functions (Front Assistyf.
The data of the event data recorder are recorded only if a particular accident-like situation occurs.
No recordings occur under normal driving conditions. Audio or video data from the vehicle interior
or vehicle surroundings are not stored. Personal data such as name, gender age or accident
location are also not recorded at any time. However, third parties such as law enforcement
agencies can use corresponding means to link the content of the event data recorder with other
sources of data and thus establish a reference to persons as part of an accident investigation.
