Using the Vehicle Exit Alert Feature on the Volkswagen Golf VIII

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf 8, MK 8, Golf Viii - Years 2019-2026
Part: Onboard computer

In this video, learn how to activate an exclusive feature of the Volkswagen Golf VII, known as the "vehicle exit alert". We all know the "blind spot" feature, which warns us when a vehicle is in our blind spot, out of sight in both the interior and exterior mirrors. To activate this function, go to the parking menu, select options, and choose the "vehicle exit alert" option. This feature alerts us by illuminating the same orange LED as the blind spot when we open the door and vehicles are approaching, ensuring we exit the vehicle safely. It also includes an audible warning.

Over time, frequent use of the key's flip mechanism in the vehicle, dozens of times a day, inevitably leads to wear of the internal spring. As shown in this video, replacing the spring is quite simple and takes little time. After opening the casing halfway, first position the key, then the spring housing, and finally insert the spring into the previously mentioned housing.
