i think its because of legislation in relation to the use of "autonomous vehicles" in australia.
for a car to safely pull across, potentially a multi-lane freeway or highway, it will need to change lanes by itself, safely, without cutting anyone else off the road.

so the option left is to put on the hazards and slowly stop in its own lane.
.....not that this is any safer!!

Vw called the other day apologised for this feature being turned off even though its in the Australian Boucher. So asked to drop in for it too be turned on and my first real service is now free

Any details on where I can get this? I'd be keen to do it to my car.

I actually asked about this when I was collecting my car and the dude said it had been enabled on mine. One night soon I might go out and test it (when there's little traffic around).

Be sure to post a pic of your final choice. I'm thinking of moving the current one on mine to the back and getting the black and red ones for the front. My cars black so going with a red highlight theme for external mods.

Good write up on the Arteon in today's Cars Guide

And the Werk2 Arteon is here:

They're a good looking car - someone local just has to do some tasteful work to theirs..

Those of you with an Arteon - what does your oil temp sit at when driving? In my Golf R, my oil temp would be around 80-95C depending on the weather. I think the Golf R has an oil cooler aswell which would help with oil temps. I've noticed in the Arteon, it's around 100C+ most of the time. I was just wondering if anybody else was seeing similar temps?
