WIV rücksetzen, falsche Werte im Infotainment | Posts 24+

Hello,

Okay, I'll take another look at the car after it's been driven for a few more kilometers. With the current mileage since the reset, it's not yet possible to make a definitive assessment.

The fixed values of 30,000 km and 365 days are already acceptable. The fixed values only indicate when an inspection is due. It's as if the oil change has been separated from the inspection. In my opinion, it's a money-making scheme by VW to get people to visit the workshop more often. During the inspection, according to the maintenance schedule, the vehicle is checked, doors are lubricated, etc., which used to be included in the regular service. However, there is no oil change included; that is done separately based on the oil change service indicator.
It has nothing to do with filter changes or brake fluid. The fuel filter needs to be replaced every 90,000 km, the air filter every 90,000 km or 6 years, and the pollen filter every 60,000 km or 2 years.

The terminology used in the adjustment channels is also very confusing. Even in the WIV channels, the term "inspection" is used, although it should actually refer to "service" or "oil change."

WIV/SIA = Oil change.
FIX=Inspection.

Hello everyone,

Okay, there's an update. Yesterday, I received information that the display is now suddenly showing the correct values. It's now counting down from 30,000 km and 730 days. Nothing further has been done to the vehicle since I took the Screenshot of the control unit. It has been driven approximately 800 km since then. Apparently, the control unit needs a considerable amount of time/distance to adapt to new values. It's strange that it takes so long. But, well, there's probably nothing we can do about it, and now everything is back to normal, and the display is showing the correct values.

Greetings.

Thank you for the feedback!

You're welcome, it's nothing. Maybe someone else will have the same problem someday and this will save them a lot of work.
