Hello all

When I connected my iPhone to my 2019 Leon Cupra ST today, the car behaved as if it was seeing a new device. It showed a different circular-style menu instead of the usual grid, and then dropped into the setup wizard. After re‑pairing Bluetooth everything worked again, although disconnecting CarPlay caused Bluetooth to drop once more.

My phone later reported that it had updated its software, even though I hadn’t manually installed a new iOS version.

Has anyone else seen this? I’m wondering whether the infotainment had a momentary crash rather than any actual SEAT update.
It's still showing the different circular home screen, although stuff is working.
It lost all DAB station set up too...

Edit- I found the option in settings to change from Carousel menu to Grid. Still not sure why the system reset itself. Car is unlocking and starting fine.

The infotainment system isn’t capable of OTA updates
So maybe just the infotainment crashed?

It just seemed to lose temporary data such as stored radio presets, bluetooth pairing, and default settings such as menu options.
I noticed later it was an hour out because summer time was not ticked in the settings.
Since I reset stuff, it all seems to have been retained for now. Any ideas on why it went back to default settings - almost like a new unit?
