I recently purchased a 2009 Tiguan with upgraded sat nav. the car comes with bluetooth. After doing a factory reset of the system I try connect to the bluetooth but no 'Volkswagen Car' can be seen. The only name the keeps popping up is 'BT phone'. I try connecting and it pops up asking me to put in a pin. the problem is that the car is not showing any code. I have tried generic ones like 0000 and 1234, only to my dismay. Any suggestions? would love some help. thx

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

Whilst it is possible to change from the default 0000/1234 bluetooth password, this is hardly (if ever) done.
If you can't figure it out then you can change the BT password in the BT module via diagnostics software like VCDS or OBD11 etc.2011 Skoda Octavia vRS TDI DSG wagon|Revo Stage 1|Race Blue|Leather|Dynamic Xenons w 6000K|9w7 BT|THA475 Amp+active sub|Whiteline ALK|RVC|

Thank you for your help. whilst conducting some research I understand that it is normal for the car, when you click on it (the cars bluetooth) on your phone, will display a pin on the display. Is this only on newer models or is my system broken? also. do you know where I could acquire the cable to be able to use diagnostic software (VCDS)?,
Thanks

The acknowledge pin is in the instrument cluster if it's a newer Bluetooth module.
For once off, just give someone near you a six-pack to have them use their diagnostic software.
Otherwise if youre interested vcds can be purchased from the ross-tech website or their local distributor.2011 Skoda Octavia vRS TDI DSG wagon|Revo Stage 1|Race Blue|Leather|Dynamic Xenons w 6000K|9w7 BT|THA475 Amp+active sub|Whiteline ALK|RVC|
