- I purchased the screens from this online store in Hongkong

They have a ton of parts that are just not available from a dealer or other part supply store so is a great place to find what you need to repair your car.
The touch screen in my 2017 VW Passat has been a problem for a long while and the $ 1,000 plus aftermarket solution was not appealing to me....Allowing VW to repair it TOTALLY out of the question. So I decided to try replacing the capacitive touch screen. Probably every VW car will need this...I bought two to have a spare - Навчання та стиль
This video was amazing!!!! Thank you! I just fixed my broken Jetta radio with this video. Putting the new screen on over the old screen worked perfectly. I'm so grateful. I'm a 60 year old woman and I did it all by myself and it worked perfectly. I'm so happy to have my radio working again. I ordered the screen, torque wrenches and a dashboard removal kit and I had no problems. Thank you thank you Thank you!!!!! Good job!!!
hi there, curious as to where you went for the screen (his link didn't redirect) did you go to ebay or another site. do i need to go to manual for part number? also where did you order the last 2 items (cost) i'm a new 2016 tiguan owner and this is the only thing that's wrong. thanks so much!
Thank you so much for this detailed guide! I successfully replaced my touchscreen today because of this video. They quoted me $2700 to replace the whole unit, and it cost me less than $27 to do this repair. Brilliant.
I have a 2017 Jetta with MIB2 infotainment. Is that the same as yours?
This is an AWSOME video on repair of the touch sensor. The first that goes from start to finish and shows it all!
Can't thank you enough for this one!
Thanks !...it is what I wanted to see before I attempted the repair.
Could not find it, so I filmed it on the fly and happy to learn it is not so difficult and especially happy it works now !!
The step by step of every screw and the 'important ledge' info really helped me out. My screens been dead for a year and today with this tutorial I decided to give it a go. Bloody works perfect. I appreciate your efforts sir!
Thank you. I know I was thinking about selling the car...it is a huge PROBLEM...or it was. I have an extra screen incase it happens again
I repaired my Skoda Yeti today. I would never have been able to do it without this video. Many thanks for your efforts! You are amazing
Thank you so much for this!! My touch screen on my 2017 VW Jetta SE started sporadically becoming unresponsive about 2 years ago and I resorted to using the AUX jack instead. I was about to purchase an aftermarket system and then I saw your video. Ordered the part using the link you provided, delivery took about 10 days, and just finished installing this and now it's working like new.
Thank you so much for the video. This gave me the confidence to change the touch screen on my VW CC media unit MIB Std2. I followed your guidance and completed it in about 90 minutes. Saved me an absolute fortune and so thanks again.
Your video has just saved me £165. I followed your video and was able to do the same as you - fitting the new digitiser screen over the old one, gentle with the electronics and ribbon cables and it is now working perfectly! To be honest, taking the unit out of the car was the most difficult bit. Thank you so much!!
Another one here from Spain , fixed it in my Yeti. Because of your help I can enjoy driving with music again and saved around 1000 Euros..thank you so much !!! You are awesome.
Donde pillaste el táctil? Me pasa lo mismo y creo que solo hay que añadirle el táctil nuevo. No hay que sustituirlo no? Ya estoy a la desesperada. Saludos de Tenerife
Thank you so much from Australia..
Local VW dealer quoted me AUS $3919 ( $3519 for parts and $400 service fee) to replace it for my 6 years old Caddy. Touch screen stopped working a year ago.
I ended up spending AUS $20 plus 2 hours of my time using this video and another shorter video.
It is now working like a new one. Huge thanks!!!
Wow! Expensive!
Well alright! Add me to the list of those that are so grateful for your video. My 2017 Tiguan Sport has exactly the same radio control unit with navigation, which is now fully functional after the repair. Your video saved me from the hassle of trying to adapt and install an aftermarket head unit as a new VW OEM replacement is cost-prohibitive. THANK YOU!
Many thanks. I replaced the touch screen in my VW CC today with the help of your video. Now working 100%. To think that a month ago I was thinking I would need to buy a new system.
It's fixed! Took about 2 hrs from start to finish, but the savings is so worth the effort! Thank you so much!
You are a life saver. 2017 transporter here. You potentially helped mi to fix 2 issues at once. I had dead zone (right top corner) and hyperactive one (left bottom). it started slowly (i could not use "back" function in certain menu levels for like a year if not more) Left bottom would act up occasionally and it potentially has been going on for months and i mistaken it for faulty IR proximity sensor (if you wave your hand over screen it opens menu at the bottom + locks certain functions). Switching "animation when hand near screen" stopped it so I thought it is IR sensor. Today after replacing screen i noticed that same menu pops up on touching screen - so maybe my hyperactive area was causing it all along.
BTW note to self: If new screen is similar quality to original one i would not use tape to glue it in place - potential trouble in few years..
Thank you sir. You solved a problem I have been wrestling with for almost a year. New stereo for the Fender system is about $1,000 after market, no telling what the dealer is asking. Followed your instructions, including where to get the part, worked like a charm. Thank you!
2017 VW Jetta SE with touch screen issues, here. Thanks to your EXCELLENT video, I finished installing the part literally today, 2 hours ago! Thank you so very much!
Glad it helped!
Thank you buddy. As others have said, this is the only complete video out there - every step of the process covered and explained in detail. I will now attempt my own fix with confidence. Thanks again!
did it work for you?
Thank you from Scotland replaced the touchscreen on my VW California ocean camper and no works perfectly, followed your instructions to the letter. Thank you very much, save me a fortune. 😊
hi, i have a VW T6 Caravelle, with the same problem, can I ask you where you found the original screen?
Thanks to you I saved some hundred €…clever idea to just add the new touchscreen without removing the old one…my personal hero of the week!
Thanks very much for this detailed step by step video! I have had no touch screen functionality for several years and VW garage quoted a ridiculous price to change the unit. I bought a screen for £15 and had it in a box until I finally managed to get around to doing this. I had to go through most of it twice as there were to Torx 6 screws left over at the end! It took about two hours but now it’s all back together and seems as good as new!
Good to hear you enjoyed success with it.
If I ran VW, I would send out the screens for free or set up a process for repair not replace companies are sleazy now....they are not kind, caring or thoughtful towards their customers.
Hi there. Just to say thank you for this video. I have just carried out the same proceedure on my VW Scirocco's faulty screen and it worked perfectly. You have just saved me a lot of money. Many thanks. Clive
Thanks so much for your video. I have just replaced the touchscreen in my UK Sharan 2017. Slightly different part number on display box, but found it easy to do…even for an 80 year old!
Thank you so much. Like so many commentators this fixed my unit. I couldn’t have done it without you. ❤
Just want to thank you. I watched the video several times, I ordered from the link you provided. Today I did it! it took an hour or two but I took my time and wanted to get it right. It all went very smoothly. The touch screen works again, no issues, the back up cam, buttons, etc all work like with no issues. Also key, I did not trigger any airbag or CODES, like airbag, and I did not have to reenter the pin number. Thanks again!
awesome ! Right ?
Thank you SOOOO much for this video! The detail and effor you put in is amazing. I've just followed your stpes to fix the uint on my Caravelle T6 and it worked like a charm!
Instead of removing the old digitizer (which is hard work) just adding the new in front of it is genius! Thank You very much! Appreciate it!
Thank you so much for this walkthrough. Worked like a charm. Only difference was that the dash panel was a different configuration, but found another video on how to remove that version.
Thanks from Ireland. A very detailed video and a very satisfying task under this amazing instruction. My daughters 2107 VW Jetta Radio is now working perfectly again.
Incredibly detailed and easy to follow. Fixed my Skoda Yeti screen in 90 mins. Thank You.
Hi mate can you share the link of the touch where you did purchased. Thanks in advance.
Was it a screen with or without CD-drive?
Greetings from Australia. Thank you so much for doing this video. It literally covers every step, down to the last screw. I have just done my VW Amarok pickup truck head unit (exactly the same as yours) and it works 100%! All the best to you
I am in Australia and have the same problem with caddy. Am I able to contact you to discuss fix?
As the other comments below thanks so much for this guide. I was very apprehensive, especially the connections, but it worked out fine. Really appreciated the detail instructions and the hints on the connectors.
Thanks a ton for this video. Fixed the exact issue with my 2017 Jetta with unresponsive screen. $12 part, $12 precision screwdriver set, and this video. Good to go.
I have a 2017 Jetta too, will give it a try now that I have confirmation, thanks!
BTW, did you use the link in the description to buy the parts? Did you use the same parts shown in the video?
Awesome Video. Saved me a ton of money. Replaced touchscreen works like a charm. It took me 2hrs to remove the Radio from my Seat Alhamra, replace the digitiser, put it all together again and put it back into the car. Saved me almost 2k €.
Thank you for creating this great video. It is incredibly detailed. I disassembled my touchscreen and was able to repair it with the aliexpress replacement you recommend.
My car is a 2016 seat Alhambra.
I am very happy!
Thank you
Great to hear!
Thanks mate - successfully repaired mine in 1 hour tonight. Appreciate your guidance, saved me a motza.
Very happy with the result! I wasn't sure about putting thre new screen straight over the old one as it made it a lot thinker and not able to click back into the surround. Without another option, I just went with it and in no time at all it was back in the car and working perfectly. Thanks for the vid.
I have a 2017 Jetta with MIB2 infotainment. Is that the same as yours?
Brilliant video, thank you. Replaced my screen and its working perfectly. I needed to buy a T7 and 8 torque bit for the fiddly little screw inside
2017 Jetta SEL here, worked like a charm! The supplier in the link is out of stock but the product can be found around just double check the letters etc.
Thank you for posting this and helping outhers out!
what's the part number you used? trying to figure out the one that will work for my 2017 GLI
Thanks very much. Followed the instructions and had a full repair in about two hours. Delighted!
I love this. You just saved me near $1,000. Thanks for making this.
Thank you very much! Your calm video enabled me to do the repair without any hassle. Saved a lot of unnecessary money to be thrown at the repair shop 😉
I finally have a fully functioning radio again in my 2017 Tiguan!! Thank you so much for this incredible tutorial!
I have a 2017 Tiguan too. Did you use the same product that he linked in the description? Or did you order from somewhere else? If so, could you send me the link you used?
Thank you so much for taking the time to make such an informative and thorough tutorial. I just finished this project on our 2017 Tiguan Wolfsburg edition. Worked like a charm. Touch screen and CarPlay now work flawlessly.
I was happy it worked, I did not know what was going to happen...I just filmed what I did not really knowing anything about it at the time....just took a shot and got it
I have a 2017 Jetta with MIB2 infotainment. Is that the same as yours?
they all seem the same, all over the world
Thanks so much for your video. I have just replaced the touchscreen in my T6 California Ocean. So easy with your tutorial !
I fixed my Jetta following your video. Thank you very much for sharing this! ❤
Can u tell me where to buy it? Post a link.. I have a jetta too
Danke für das Video. Ich habe nach dieser Anleitung mein Discover Media repariert.
Das hat inklusive aus / einbau des Radios im Auto ca 2 Stunden gedauert.
Jede menge Geld gespart. Best regards from Germany ,
Many thanks for the video, just fixed my wifes VW Scirocco with a £8.90p screen from Ali express, unbelievable 😊
I never make comments on UA-cam videos. But this one is awesome. Shame on VW for asking for a lot of money for something that I managed to repair for 15€. Many thanks for the tutorial
You're a lifesaver!! Just fixed the one on my '17 GLI!
This dude is definitely an engineer. Fantastic! Informative, comprehensive 40-minute video. Could have been 4 minutes.
But genuinely thanks anyway
feel free to FFWD if you feel the need, the need for speed
Hi there. Is the shop on eBay still open? I can’t really find it using the link in your description. 😢 Thank you for the video.
Thank you for this. I had the video running on my laptop on the kitchen table as I repaired the radio in my Skoda Yeti. In so doing I saved about £350.
Thank you for this, I followed it and, like others, successfully replaced my touchscreen. Brilliant
Thank you so much for this video.
I was quoted over £2500 to fix the problem, but your video and a £25 screen from Amazon did the job.
Thank you thank you thank you
You're welcome!
Could you comment the link for the Amazon product you used please? Most of these videos say eBay or AliExpress but I’d rather use Amazon if possible. Just don’t know which one.
Worked like a charm! Seems complicated but it's not. Thanks for this guide!
Many thanks. Fixed mine today with ease due to the great video.
The best video I found on that topic! Thank you very much!
You’ve saved me so much money. I appreciate you 🙏
Thank you for this video. I had the same problem in my 2017 vw tiguan but it’s fixed now
Absolutely brilliant video, saved me a small fortune.
Another 2k saved because of you! Can't thank you enough! Great video!
Crazy how much a radio costs these days
Just finished replacing my unit thanks to your video, appreciate you!
Fantastic!
I'm gonna need to do this to mine in the future. Excellent vid.
Thank you. Just replaced by wife’s touch screen with your guidance!
Danke für dieses tolle und sehr ausführliche Video. Ich kommentiere sonst nie etwas. Aber hier wurde sich viel Mühe gegeben und es hat unserer Urlaubskasse sehr gut getan. Vielen vielen Dank dafür.
Und wo genau hast du diesen digitizer jetzt gekauft? Der Link funktioniert ja nicht mehr. Grüße
I've been dealing with a broken touch screen for a year now with nothing worthwhile out there to learn how to do this. It took me maybe an hour and everything works.
Thank you very much, I fixed mine with it! Let me suggest putting 2mm spacers under the metal frame to the 4 screw holes at 22:30. Without this the LCD screen will be under pressure and colored at the corners, that was my experience.
I have used your method on my unit and it is working like new. Thank you very much for your video.
Great to hear!
Thank you so much for your video, it’s saved me literally.
I did the same and it worked perfectly.
I really appreciate it.
Thanks man
Thank you buddy!! 2016 Tiguan (Cdn), touch screen has not been working, intermittently, will dial people all by itself. Some media buttons won't work either. Ordered the part, radio numbers were off just a bit, but I figured "...I'll try it anyway...". Tore it apart, part numbers for rouch screens match, installed and holy )(*&*&%, it works like brand new!! The video was great, step by step, saved me $1000 (quoted by dealer). Thanks again from Nova Scotia, Canada.
Where did you get your part? I’m in NS too with a 16 Tiggy
@ , bought it from theebay listed above. Came plain, no glue strips but fit right on top on old screen.
Great info, thanks so much. My car now fixed!
Very nice Video. Thank you so much! Completely helpful ! I'll try it the next days
Thank you so much man! Very thankful i found your video before i shelled out for a new radio
Yeah....I was about to buy a different car because of it ...so I gave it a shot and was able to fix it. I think it is a really common problem with all new cars
Brilliant, thank you. Just replaced my touch screen with the help of your video
Excellent!
Excelente video,muy bien hecho desde el principio al final,felicitaciones
Hi, thank a lot!!! You safe me money. Repair was easy thanks to the video and was completed within an hour. Thanks thanks thanks
Shame VW make decent radios and then put the cheapest touch screens available in them. One reason we will never buy any VW car again.
Thanks for this fix! Dealer quoted £1800.... Lucky we weren't born stupid! 😂
Bonjour, propriétaire d'un VW Caddy sur lequel l'écran tactile de la radio gps fonctionnait de manière aléatoire. VW demandait 1300 € pour le remplacer !!! J'ai commandé un écran pour 13€ sur AliExpress. J'ai suivi ton tuto point par point, et tout fonctionne parfaitement. Merci beaucoup !!!
Thanks so much! Just saved me a pile of cash. Absolute champion!!
Sorry I'm not a member of the Starship Enterprise...this is beyond me despite your good intentions...i would lose some screws, end up swearing, probably end up falling out with the wife, possible divorce, and more than likely the unit would binned...im not very technical, and admire people who have the ability to do stuff like this...but i haven't the the urge to do so...just wish it was easier to fix.
Thanks so much for the video. I just fixed my screen.
Thankyou thankyou thankyou for an excellent and detailed video thats so easy to follow. Just as relevant for our Australian VW's as well. Fixed my 2017 amarok today for the massive sum of $25.00 haha. Easy to do and quick.
Thanks for the feedback. It seems VW is consistent all around the globe in both successes and shortcomings. The touchscreen digitizer was such a severe issue that I was considering to just buy a new car...but the solution was so easy....this time.
@@neuromanglers Yes "this time" is a good comment haha Ive traveled all over oz in my amarok over soft beaches and simpson desert dunes to gnarly rocky climbs in the mountains of SA and is a very capable vehicle. But they are still so very VW and have odd quirks. The touchscreen would drive us mad. Cant thank you enough for this video mate, from the whole family!
Great video. But the link is no longer good. Could you help me out? Thanks
I just change mine thx to this tuto => Good Job ! it's working !!!
Glad it helped
Thankyou for this video, its helped me out a lot. 🖖
Thank you for sharing the video. Half of the touchscreen in my unit is not responsive. Where did you buy the part. click on the kink and it is not longer available. Thank you.
Great vid worked for me except I coudnt get the cd clip baxk on and had three screws left over. But it works! 🎉
Very good video , thanks very much ! 😊
Thank you for the detailed video, great work. However, it seems the seller on ebay is no longer available. Any recommendations where to buy the replacement screen from?
Thanks again for this video. I'm looking forward to jumping into this project, but the ebay store seems to be dead now. Any recommendation on where to look or what part number to order?
I got the new part from Amazon Hopefully the Correct Part LOL This video is the most detailed on this cars haed unit THX MAn Can not wait The Woman will be thrilled and Im out of dog house! Joking
great video
i will be removing mine this afternoon in the uk 🇬🇧
thank you
any clue to where to locate the part
Merci gars pour ta vidéo et encore bravo
Thanks. Just fixed my T6 😄
Great!
So you added the new touch on the top of the old one right?
Can you add the link for the touchscreen you bought in the description?
First of all, thank you very much for this tutorial. Second, you talked about the screen connector to be ‘in front of the ledges’, do you mean pushed in completely and then closing it? 30:47
Thanks for the excellent video. We have a 2017 Skoda Yeti, where part of the screen is unresponsive, so I intend to follow your instructions. Can you clarify what you did with the ribbon connector of the old screen, please? Is it necessary to insulate the connections?
I left the old screen unplugged, place the new screen over the old one and plug it in just as the old one was
Thanks for the reply.
Great job... Got my nav back. But unfortunately my CD player isn't recognized. Only the one ribbon cable, but it says no CD when I try to eject the CD that I left in there... I can't seem to find a release to get the CD out either. Any ideas?
Really appreciate your video. Great content. I'll try this too but just one thing when I landed on the page to order from the same vendor you bought from - I didn't see my vehicle (2017 Volkswagen Passat R-line, same as yours) on the Compatibility list. In fact, there is no Passat from any year on that list. Just double-checking.
Yeah....it is a chance ordering it, they do not have good descriptions or complete crossovers. I took a chance, ordered it and was exactly correct...I was surprised it worked and was so easy to do
thanks!@@neuromanglers
where did you buy it? great work!!!
thanks
Hello, mine is having color overlapping and the screen becomes dark, however touch is still working, i am not sure if i need to order touch only or full TDO
If you can advise me will be appreciated
