In this video, we discuss navigation problems with the infotainment system on the Volkswagen Golf VIII, noted for its excessive slowness and loading issues. Software problems forced Volkswagen to halt deliveries between May and June 2020 and led to a recall in early 2021, which also involved an upgrade to more powerful hardware, 25% more powerful, with a new graphics card offering three times the performance of the original.

The update also includes new features regarding voice control. To perform a hard reset of the system, simply press and hold the power button for thirty seconds.

Do not release the button until the system has restarted correctly.
