If things improve with regard to Covid, I might try my luck with them.
I'm afraid I haven't had any further replies from the VW Audi forum, though they have been very helpful, and none at all from the Samsung community forum, who haven't! I also had come interest and advice from the VW T Roc group.

Re: Problems pairing phone with car
Have you thought of looking on YouTube? I ask because seven years' ago I bought a new VW Golf 1.6 TDI Mk7 and never before having owned a 'computer on wheels' I struggled with the technology. One thing that did completely baffle me was the Cruise Control. The dealer explained it all and despite going back several times in the end I found it on YouTube, in detail and with the video to show how to set and use it.The problem was that the instruction manual's explanation and illustrations were different from what was on the car, it had been changed after the first few models so was totally different to operate!
How about phoning or e-mailing the dealer? They might just be able to explain it to you that way or tell you where you are going wrong.
I did have a quick look on YouTube and found the VW Golf 8 and instructions on how to use many of the features, including sat. nav. and Infotainment System, ran out of time to look further though. Might be worth having a look yourself though as you know what you are looking for. The VW Golf Mk 8 is vastly different to the VW Golf Mk 7 though, all very nice too.

I did (briefly) look on YouTube, but all I found were old entries relating to earlier models.
It's worth another try, though.
If need be, I'll probably end up calling the dealer.
