Do you use both key fobs or just one? Get it into the dealer with a picture of the warning on the dash and the key fob in the pic to show its in the car. Needs a new fob.
Memory mirror issue I‘ve not had any complaints but if this happens with both mirrors I would ask the customer if the memory seat position works correctly or if this sometimes goes to the wrong place.
You seem like you're in the VW/Audi business, I appreciate your reply.
I've yet to figure out the mirrors. One thing most people probably don't know is that the key must be programmed so that it knows who's driving and what memory positions to take. That's easy to miss but I've done that.
The outside mirrors have a tendency lose position and face too far downward. One mirror usually, both mirrors sometimes. It never happens while driving or reversing after driving awhile. It's not like the mirrors are canted visibly, but they're out enough to render them useless. Seat position is always correct.
It seems to happen more after an unlocked cold start from the garage. I've experimented with the outside mirror adjuster by parking it in different positions. Still does it. One mirror, or both, will point too far downward. I've reprogramed the seat and key multiple times. Locking and unlocking the car with my programmed key before getting in ands driving...no help. Mirrors might be fine. Or not. It's probably a 60% failure rate when overnight cold and backed out of garage.
This is especially weird - but hitting the memory recall on the seat when I notice bad mirrors after heading out, sometimes the mirrors will take their proper position - other times they won't! Only way to fix is with mirror adjuster knob. That's really flakey IMO.
I've talked with the VW dealer they say they've never heard of such an issue. Car is out of warranty and I'm certain it would cost me thousands to have it fixed. That, I don't want the electrics dug into and molested. I'll find a way to live with it. It's a nice car and is worth the quirk.
Although we're still talking about VW electrics, my apologies if I am highjacking the thread.
