Traffic Jam Assist

[zzc2010]

Can anyone source the new firmware for the Camera Module A5?

The new firmware enables Lane Assist from 0 km/h.

Question guys - how does TJA actually work? Is it same as adaptive cruise control?

Works like ACC with Adaptive Lane Guidance does on the motorway, but at speeds below 60km/h. Accelerates, brakes, drives off and has a degree of lane guidance.

Oh right, so basically navigates you in traffic below 60? Does it steer as well? Pretty cool option tbh

It does. Its quite good at it too, but when it sees a sharp curve it deactivates. Its not really self driving though...more a driving aid.

Oh sweet, nice, thanks for the quick reply love my golfs but am thinking a TDI Tiguan is my next car due to a bit more flexibility with space etc.

No worries We traded in a Golf and a CC on our two Tiguans so we understand the practicality argument well.

I recall seeing an interview with a Bosch representative and he said at the time (two years ago??) that Bosch had the technology to make a fully autonomous car but the public were not ready for it so their plan was to have one on the market by 2025 IIRC. From what I have seen the Europeans and in particular Mercedes seem to be pushing autonomous truck introduction ahead of cars. They are running an autonomous truck in the US in service and have been for some time.

Had another 'discussion' with VWA yesterday regarding enabling TJA on MY17 vehicles, based on the information from Eyes24 supplied from the dealer, VWA are still saying that TJA is not currently enabled on MY18 Tiguans or MY17 for that matter, when pushed on the future he was coy and mentioned it was being looked at. From the tone of the conversation the gent I spoke to had already been down the TJA path before with other customers as he was a little abrupt at times and didn't really want to discuss it besides pushing the company line, he did come around in the end and loosen up a bit in conversation. He did say that if dealers are telling customers that TJA was on MY18 cars they were doing purely to sell a car and bending the truth to do so. Gut feel is VWA are considering adding TJA, need more people to ring up/write to VWA asking for it.

Why they just don't make it an upgrade that the customer can elect to pay for is beyond my comprehension. I must be on a black list as they won't answer my emails, excellent customer relations I don't think. Any major feature that can be coded into the car should have a cost attached and give the customer the choice which could be presented the same way as the accessory packs VWA love and cherish so much. The dealers would like it because they would get a cut as well and it would be traffic through their service department.

I'd be happy to pay for the upgrade as well, the current stance doesn't make a whole lot of sense
