Sending car information to a workshop[1]
It is possible to send information for the car at any time, e.g. if you book a workshop appointment and want to help your workshop by providing them with better data so that your visit can be planned. Sending car information is not the same as booking a service appointment.
Open the Car status app from the app view in the centre display.- Press the Appointments button.
- Press the Send car data button.
A message that vehicle data are being sent is shown at the top of the centre display. You can cancel data transmission by tapping the X in the activity indicator.
The information is sent via the car's Internet connection[2].
This car information can be accessed by any retailer if they have the car's identification number (VIN[3]).
Car information content

- service requirement
- time since last service
- function status
- fluid levels
- meter reading
- the car's vehicle identification number (VIN[3])
