VR28.13 Software Update

[mschaefer]

Just received the VR28.13 update, which was supposed to fix the random failure of all assistance systems.
Having the update installed for three weeks now, the random failures of assistance systems (usually in heavy, slow traffic) still happen.
Also, since the update my iPhone gets disconnected from time to time randomly, which did not happen before the update (at least not so frequently as after the update).

You will receive an OTA update pretty soon for the CarPlay issues. It’s updated after the 28.13 installment.
Sorry to hear you have so much issues with the assistance systems. Looking at this forum there seems to be a couple problematic ones and people with hardly any issues at all. (Including me) I sometimes have a white warning but that is on a known intersection and also had that in my E-tron but also Tesla’s (for example) are complaining on that point as the previous road is deviated away on top of a former road so probably GPS is “lost” at this point. But the message does not interrupt anything. All assistance systems are online and continue to work.

In the past 4 weeks I’ve done 5500km in my Macan without any issues whatsoever. So you should definitely go back to your service center and make some noise about your issues.

Unfortunately you can’t. You need to ask the dealer.

I'm scared to ever take mine (Aug Delivery) in because so far I've head just simple glitches that fix themselves within seconds or minutes. I have a post where I complained about the loss of the music audio channel, but since then (2 times Aug/Sep) it has never happened again!

I had the 28.13 update installed a month ago and so far it appears to have resolved the frequent Assistance Systems Limited warnings that used to occur. The only remaining issue I’ve experienced is the speakers not working a few times, but it resolved itself when I lock the car and returned about 20 minutes later.

For me, the way I know (I think) that the software update has been installed is that 5G is now displayed on the main screen. Plus, under system setting, then about the android version is now displaying 10 March 2025 (previously dated as 8 May 2024).

Originally, my car went in for its software update on November 10th at my local dealer (Stockport) who thought it was successful. However, in the following weeks I had various new intermittent issues, with no 5G. The dealer then advised in very early December that this update had been postponed, due to the amount of issues others were experiencing, but he arranged for a second attempt later for December 22nd and since this update, everything seems ok, except that I can't get my mobile contacts up on the main screen and have to use Android Auto for my contacts, an alternative method for now.

Unsure if this update has been authorized/updated in the UK, but as mine was a re-attempt, it was carried out.

Was unsure where to post this as there a number of threads on this similar issue.
