I have an SEL without a sunglasses holder...or don't know how to open it. My 2016 eGolf has a sunglass holder (without sunroof), though.
Ha! I'm totally with you on this. I grew up in Edmonton. Been driving in winter conditions for 40+ years and the only thing the stupid "black ice" warning does is annoy the hell out of me. Much safer to turn on "driver awareness" every time you get behind the wheel. If you need an idiot light to tell you what the road conditions are, should you really be driving?Do you have instructions for this?
I'd like to adjust it to some unachieveable low temp and not have to listen to it ever again...
Another 2015 without a sunglasses holder... Need to do some research as to why this is?I have an SEL without a sunglasses holder...or don't know how to open it. My 2016 eGolf has a sunglass holder (without sunroof), though.
My car is not a unicorn, it's got to be an SEL thing. I keep forgetting to take a picture!I have an SEL without a sunglasses holder...or don't know how to open it. My 2016 eGolf has a sunglass holder (without sunroof), though.
I'm with you. I really enjoy driving rwd cars in the winter and if you can find a rwd car now, they have taken the fun out of those as well.Ha! I'm totally with you on this. I grew up in Edmonton.

I'm tired of car manufacturers taking all the common sense and skill out of driving a car and turning it into a bland, personality-less appliance.
What I'd really like today is a brand new 20 year old car.
Luddite rant over.
Seems like it. There's a space there, but no door to open to get to it for whatever reasons.My SEL Golf has a sunglass holder. Is it a Golf vs GSW thing?
Good to know!I believe the difference is whether you hold the brake pedal down rather than how long you hold the button down.
It is in mine Keli. page 230 left side "Switching the ignition on and off"Good to know!
I'll try it both ways to check.
Still wonder why it's not in the manual...
Silly me. I was looking under Windows, operating.It is in mine Keli. page 230 left side "Switching the ignition on and off"
I can see why you missed it.
We really need to get this figured out. Having the space for it, but it just being a cover, is really stupid.Seems like it. There's a space there, but no door to open to get to it for whatever reasons.
Thanks for the heads up. Useful to know. I had discovered the ACC on thing (brief button push) inadvertently, but did NOT know about the brake thing. It also starts if you just hold it longer.bizzle is right. Foot on the brake with the start button starts the car.
Foot off the brake with the start button puts in into ACC
I put mine in the little storage compartment to the left of the steering column.My SEL GSW has no sunglass holder overhead either. Kind of annoying to have the stupid help buttons I don't need in place of the sunglass holder we always used for tollbooth money.

When I got my 2015 fixed GSW SE (pano, DSG), the salesman began telling me about the emergency satellite call button ("like On Star"). My immediate comment was, "My previous VWs have never stranded me, are they less reliable now?" He stumbled. I have never touched it. Requires paid subscription after 6 months or something as I recall...I put mine in the little storage compartment to the left of the steering column.
