how do I unlock this radio with no manual or code? i see the instructions posted here often. for people who have their codes, but what if I have no code? Weird...I have owned the car for several days. Before I purchased it a new battery was installed. the radio worked fine from that time. Now, a few days later, i park, go to work, come out to find the radio in safe mode...WHY??? Thanks to anyone

 

got to get code from dealer

 

If you can pull the radio out the 4 digit code might be on the radio serial number sticker. mine was...

 

The radio code isn't in the VIN number. If it an OEM radio contact a VW dealer they should have this on compute FOC.
