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,

  • Happy Jetta owner just need to sort out my radio

    Hi all,

    Just recently picked up a nice 06 Jetta,
    Everything is great except the stock radio which only plays CD.
    Can't connect a phone or iPod.

    Anyone got suggestions on best way to upgrade.
    Believe its a RCD300

    Regards

    Rob

      Yatour Bluetooth module(YT BTM)+Remote control(YT REMO)+Digital Music Changer(YT M06) for multi choices-in Audio from Automobiles & Motorcycles on Aliexpress.com

      have this connected to my RCD300, works well, good alternative...can be found for less.. i got mine for $99 delivered (cant remember where from though)....
      BT works well, sounds goods too.. retain OEM headunit and steering controls. easy to fit too.

              Looking at my options
              1. unit to plug in to back of my head unit
              2. new vw radio gateway and bluetooth (discovered I need the gateway to stop my battery training
              3. aftermarket radio designed for VW




              I'm now tending towards 1 and 3.(mainly due to cost)
              I have seen the Pioneer AVIC-F9310BT going for around $500
