Anyone know differences between my21 vs my22 builds? I know of the heater buttons being illuminated from another post but is there any others?
 
There’s a couple of new colours added to the list (a metallic white and metallic blue), and more optional extras available.

Black headlining changes to grey on V1 and V2 and heated steering wheel on V1 and V2 DSG models (although sure it was already standard on MY21 V2 DSG). Not sure what’s changed spec wise on other models.
 
Do you mean the capacitive temperature controls are going to be illuminated? I didn’t see this mentioned anywhere.

I've just collected my V2 today and presume its MY22 as it has grey headlining. I can confirm the heater and volume buttons are not illuminated..unless I haven't found the setting for that yet.

How does the grey headlining look? Only ever seen it shown with the black headlining, so hoping it doesn’t stick out like a sore thumb.

To be fair its very pale and matches door pillar colours. Looks fine to me

When the lights are on, this is how my screen looks.. is this not the case with the MY21?

Hmm mine has software version 1804 but I don't see any lights behind temp and volume control. I shall look into the settings
 
Pretty sure that’s the camera on the phone picking up the IR sensor in the bar. Just like if you took a photo of your old tv remote when you push a button. Those IR sensors in the car don’t respond to touch they sense when your hand is near the screen and then trigger the display to show more info, basically a proximity sensor for your hand.

I did wonder that, but I assumed the [mention]Brillante [/mention] took a picture because he saw the LEDs himself? Rather than taking a picture then noticing it had captured invisible IR light… also kinda odd spacing of IR sensors.
 
I've not driven the car at night yet so no, it was just upon looking at the picture (taken with the lights on) and remembering this thread! :ROFLMAO:

Haha fair enough. I’m dubious that they have added LEDs, even though it’s such an obvious feature to include. Let us know!
