Skip to 6:00 to get to the problem... - even then there's 30sec on talking about nice things about the interior first. - in short, 'no physical buttons' and 'troublesome infotainment' that's right "the problem" is both - actually two problems - nothing that hasn't been covered a million times before across new VW group cars

Have mine for a few months now, and I'am totally shocked that VW could even consider integrating such a system. When you're on the move, it's almost impossible to hit the correct spot on the screen consequently the number of "idiot" selections is incredibly high. So adjusting basic stuff can take easily 6 or more interactions. Good thing it has lane assist and adaptive cruise control or I would already have crashed. Wrt driving, it's very good and precise, but it has too much boost to get the power down in 1st and 2nd gear.

I initially had some Android Auto issues with my Seat Leon 2019 (prev gen), where long-pressing the sound/power button for 10 sec reboots the infotainment. Not sure if that 'workaround' could work for this car as well.

Same issues in Golf 7, occasional infotainment crashes/freezes and have to reboot to fix it. Happens randomly when using Android Auto, or if I switch to reverse (with camera) while system is still in middle of booting.

Well, surely SEAT are aware of this problem with the software? Would imagine they have had lots of feedback from the motoring press regarding this issue ! Think it’s just going to be a few weeks wait while their tech dudes sort it out! Agree though, stuff like this can disrupt sales of the car. It’s a great shame really, because it’s a potential Golf GTI challenger

Also, i have a 2021 model and in Italy, between the months of June to September, some of these cars came from the factory without the welcome light (the animation on the rear lights when you open the car) and the dynamic blinkers. And if you try to ask the dealer (now that the problem is solved) they tell you to pay 3k€ for the upgrade (for something that come from factory). Also I heard a lot of people that have really big problems with infotaiment, like fried chips while the car was at the dealer for some updates! And yet, they have to wait 4/5 months to have the car back because there aren't much restock of thise chips

@@redlinemagazine they deny the paint is an issue but every 300 mk4 I've see has it on some of them literally all the paint on underside of rear bumper stripped off, it's not easy to see so people spot it late by which time runs up the bumper needs full respray, we are not just talking paint chips but a 20cm x 15 cm patch that then runs into bumper. I had gearbox issues on mine as well few times on kickdown on motorway gearbox went into emergency mode. The rear camera fell out on mine as well another common issue part of back order for months. Its a covid developed car imo best avoided imo.
