Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    I mean you're not wrong, people should enjoy the car - but I have to say I am not sure what you'll enjoy in (a) a traffic jam and/or (b) under 60km/h.

    And yeah truth be told it really isn't that hard to drive in traffic jams, but idk something about being in the future and 'all that' ahahaha! It's really cool, and it remains to be seen where it'll be a gimmick or not. I have certainly been 'wowed' with it, after experiencing it in an Audi A4 estate.

      I just took delivery last Friday for a gti with DAP. My vin is in the sequence of WVWZZZAUZJ.... and built may 17. No traffic jam assist unfortunately. Do have ALG and lane assist only above 60km/h.

          That might have change since Feb though. This is the response I got from VWA from their Facebook page:
          Hi. Thanks for reaching out to us. Unfortunately the Traffic Jam feature is not available in our Australian Market. Thanks. Agatha@Volkswagen.

            • The VW website is advertising TJA as a feature of the upcoming Arteon but it's not mentioned for any other model even though it was talked about in articles like the one linked by frostywinter.

                I have asked the exact same question. Didn't get any response from them there after. Really do hope it is just a software update down the track. The owner's manual indicate that TJA needs ACC & Lane assist (With ALG checked). So far lane assist just stops running for speeds below 60.

                        Hey guys, a quick question for those with DAP on 7.5. Do blind spot Monitoring and rear traffic alert stay when you start the car after turning ignition off? For me, those two options get reset after I leave the ignition off for sometime (not if I start immediately after turning off ignition). I wasn't sure if it's something to do with personalisation and hence tried with personalisation off. But that didn't help either. Any thoughts on how I can save the settings for those two options?

                              Exactly! Who would have thought that autopark feature could be used as a decoy!!!
