Bugs in the latest firmware (2025.14.30)

I have noticed that my vehicle takes about 3 times longer to wake from sleep than it did before. Not a huge deal but sometimes I'll be waiting 10 or more seconds for everything to wake up and be ready to go.

The only bug I have seen since the update is also surrounding the use of Podcasts within the Audible app. Nothing I have tried so far has corrected it so I am stuck with BT audio on my commutes for now. Issue, for sure, but not a deal breaker.

I just discovered I can't connect to Gear Guard Live Cams anymore. Need to try a reboot first.

Bluetooth will completely stop playing audio. I’ve figured out a weird trick - if you leave the Bluetooth audio setting in the entertainment screen and select anything else - like Sirius or FM- it will play audio. Then you go back to your Bluetooth audio and the phone will play audio again.

my screen is still laggy as all get out. It’s really bad. And my PAAK now works at random distances too. Sometimes my car opens up at 15 feet away. Sometimes I have to stand next to my door and hold my phone up to the car.

I have a similar issue with Spotify where after a sleep it won't start playing like normal. It won't play when I click the pause/play button on the wheel and even when I go into the app and press play on the active playlist, or choose a new playlist, it wont do anything! I found that I have to open a playlist and click on a song in the playlist itself to get any audio to start. This is a consistent issue since the last update for me.

PAAK has gotten less reliable for me as well. I had no complaints about it until this update. Now I stand at my door regularly swearing at Gary to let me in already!

Not sure about the G2 people, but for my G1 truck the QC for the updates has really taken a nosedive since last year around when G2 launched. The first two years the updates tended to be very stable for me and involved significant improvements in experience. Since late last summer/fall, the updates have been far more buggy or inconsistent. For everything 2 things they fix or add they break at least one that was fine.

PaaK especially had gotten to be really good for a while and has since gone in the shitter to where it's unreliable at best. It's pretty disappointing.

I'm not sure if this is a result of now managing 2 different software versions, or the VW JV, or just the code getting more complex as time goes on or maybe a little bit of all 3 but I'm hoping they get a handle on it soon.

'22 R1T- This is my experience as well.

I think I figured out why one of the bugs is happening. When you’re navigating, with nav volume off, and happen to try to adjust the music during when the nav would be speaking, you raise the volume of the nav instead.

Confusing and annoying, if you turned off nav audio, it should stay off.
