There are two methods to disable it: 1. Volume Up Button: Use the volume up button on the multifunction steering wheel or the volume up button on the central control screen to exit the mute state. 2.

Last time I was getting my car repaired, I also looked into this issue, mainly through the Touareg's onboard system settings. After getting in the car, start the engine and don't turn it off. Then go to the central control screen and tap the 'Settings' icon. Once inside, find the 'Sound' or 'Audio' option, where there's a 'Navigation Voice Prompts' setting—just turn off its mute switch. Volkswagen set this auto-mute feature for safety, such as muting media volume during reversing to reduce distractions. But if you want to disable it, you can customize the volume level in the settings. The operation is quite simple, but remember not to adjust it while driving—safety first. The system might require a restart to take effect, but most Touareg models support it. Also, check if there's an issue with the steering wheel volume buttons—if it's muted, try pressing them again. Keep in mind that the settings location might vary slightly depending on the model year; older versions might have it under the 'Functions' menu. In any case, exploring the car's screen should get it sorted.
