My 2017 VW does this with the Voice button.
I'd love it to just activate Siri / Google Assistant on my paired smartphone, but actually they'd like to charge me £200 to use their own dubious voice control.
- EthicalSimilar 5y agoIf you're using CarPlay / Android Auto, try holding it rather than just clicking. It should then activate Siri / Google Assistant.
- adwww 5y agoCarPlay / Android is a separate £200 upgrade.
- EspadaV9 5y agoWe have a Golf 2016 model that supports CarPlay and Android Auto, have you tried connecting to it? Or not interested in the feature in general (which is fine, just curious)?
- adwww 5y agoBluetooth audio works fine, but definetly no CarPlay functionality. Some buttons on the head unit say 'talk to your dealer to purchase this'.
