As per the title, it seems there is a 1983 version popping up - as anyone seen it or know about potential improvements/performance?

Also, what are the magical problems to quote in order to get this update?

The facelift was already out for Golf and Octavia when they started pushing the 1985 update; Octavia is now receiving it OTA:

I think they're just slow when it comes to implementing theie own skin/layer on top of the VAG software... IIRC Seat/Cupra were also the last in the group to release previous SW updates (1940/41, 1969).
I am now out of warranty so I really hope this arrives OTA 😉

Funny thing is infotainment system froze on way back after the update 🤣
Maybe I'll leave it and say it must be optimising in the background.

I don't think at least in UK if dealer had 198x they would have done it.
My car is in warranty so they did it.
I don't see why they would have not done 198x if they had it.
