What happened to the VW California online manual?

I use to consult the online manual, that was quite handy. No it has disappeared, up in smoke.

If I go to the Dutch VW site, (you have the English version) find my manual, you get a window where you can enter your VIN number. The following happens, see photo's...

Have you got the same experience? I can hardly believe what VW is doing here...

I log into my account on MyVolkswagen.ch and can read the manual from there. I just tried it and was able to access it.

Did you use the log-in by entering your VIN number? MyVolkswagen.nl does not exist... there is a Mijn Volkswagen, but not with for a Cali...

Response today from VW Netherlands:
There is currently an outage on our website preventing you from viewing the digital instruction manual. Volkswagen AG, the administrator of the instruction manual application, is aware of this and is working hard to get this page working again.

Op dit moment is er een storing op onze website waardoor het niet lukt om het digitale instructieboekje in te kunnen zien. Volkswagen AG, de beheerder van de applicatie voor instructieboekjes, is hiervan op de hoogte en werkt hard om deze pagina weer werkend te krijgen.

The idea of the site is to add all of your Volkswagen vehicles and yes, you do it with the VIN, but only once. I don't know if there is a dutch equivalent site, but as its managed by Volkswagen I would think so.
