My sept 15 SE Business passat had an annoying problem last night. I had set the satnav to get me to the airport to colect somebody and on the way popped into a shop for 15mins as I was early. Got back in the car and the infotainment display was blank and neither the on/off button or any other console buttons had any effect. However on my MFD it displayed a message telling me I had switched the unit off/on. Also the MFD saw everything normally. Ignition off/on, no effect. With fiddlng about I was now late! I drove off and had to use the MFD display to find the airport. Anyway, once back home I checked the car 2 hrs later and its working. Damn.
A google around seems to show various 'blank display' issues on Golfs etc but nobody so far on this forum appears to have encountered this. It was especially annoying as I had not used the satnav much so I had set it up and tried a test route the day before but on my first real use of it I finished up with just the MFD to guide me and no way of using the satnav to get me home. The wife was back to a paper map and muttering about technology..which didnt go down well :mad:
Anyone had this? Taking it in is going to be a No Fault Found
