⚠️ Compatibility Check:
Follow these steps to verify that your Volkswagen is compatible:
Step 1
Hold the MENU button for 3 seconds
Select Software Update / Versions
Locate Installed SW Train Version
Step 2
Check that your SW Train Version looks like one of these examples:
- MST2_EU_VW_PQ_P0xxxT
- MST2_EU_VW_ZR_P0xxxT
- MST2_EU_VW_PxxxxD
- MST2_EU_VW_ExxxxD
- MST2_EU_VW_KxxxxD
Where x can be any digit.
Step 3
Check the number of SD card slots on your headunit:
- If your unit (with navigation) has 2 SD card slots — compatible ✅
- If your unit has 1 SD card slot — not compatible ❌
If you have 1 slot but your infotainment has the App-Connect function, and your software version ends with the letter D, then this SD card will work.
❗ Important Notice:
Once activated, the SD card becomes permanently linked to your vehicle’s headunit and cannot be reused or returned. Please verify compatibility before purchase or contact us for assistance.

Got App Connect to work on my VW
Finally have the display that should be available on all cars without exurbitant charges from the manufacturers. Google Maps and Waze always up to date with better info than the VW Nav.

Worked perfectly!! Verified Purchase
I was sceptical given that the cost was so low compared to what I'd heard VW would charge, but then again they're not known for being cheap. I took a chance, ordered the card and am very happy with the results. The SD card itself didn't come with any instructions so I've knocked a start off, but David was quick to send them via email when I requested them. Very easy and all done in 5 minutes. Working great. Thanks.
