what manufacturer is yours

being as you have an early 6c i'm sure you will just have mirror link and not the full app connect and imho mirror link is not worth the time of day (i specc'd my gti with mirror link and tried to use it once and that's it) i'd recommend changing the unit in the glove box and then getting the whole...

after a quick search.

2017 plate polos are a 6C even though the vin states 6R

ive fitted one that i got off aliexpress.

its a emblem cam. all fully working with the 842b unit

just stuck with an issue where it will need resetting unless you turn ignition on as soon as the car is unlocked

*UPDATE*

it seems that if i unlock the car and wait a few seconds to turn ignition on then the camera doesnt work and needs a reset

if i jump in and turn ingition on straight away then it works

any ideas what might be causing it?

I've changed the unit out to a unit with carplay capability but that was all coded to the car by VW I've coded it in the infotainment section 5F byte 19 reverse camera enable I've realised that a soft reset by long pressing the power button makes it start working again Sent from my SM-G975F using T...
