VW MY11 Bluetooth - VW 9ZB

[Ryan_R]

The VW premium bluetooth system integrates very well with the MFS and RNS, and is a hundred times better than the basic system in my parents Ford BF. How many cars let you scroll through your address book using the steering wheel buttons?

The one Ryan posted is the 9W2 or 3 (can't remember), this is the 9W7/9ZB kit you want : VW 9W7 Bluetooth KIT

You're in Sydney... let me know if you need a hand with installation.

If you have had the bluetooth $550 option factory installed (the 9w2 I believe) do you get a shark fin antenna with the car even if you have not ordered an RNS510 (Car is coming with a RCD310 and being dealer fitted with a RCD510)? I ask because on Aerial Information for Volkswagen Golf | my-gti.com it seems like you get a shark fin antenna for the bluetooth.

I ask because I'm thinking about getting an RNS510 retrofitted and was wondering if it does come with the shark fin and if I could use it with the RNS510?

No... it's 9ZB

No, the roof antena is for GPS only. Therefore RNS510 has to be fitted from the factory.

Looks like dash install for me if i decide to get one then Cheers Corey.

Yeah - the GPS works fine if you put the antenna in the dash just behind the air vent. Even in tunnels and in the Melbourne CBD mine works fine. It only gets confused on some twisty mountain roads with large trees everywhere, but that's fair enough.

I have unit installed generally works fine however it will intermittently seem to lose bluetooth connectivity as shown up on screen as phone not connected .
I have never had dropouts while making calls
is it likely to be a loose connection ?
programming issue or fault in unit?
any suggestions

[Pepe]

I've not had mine ever miss a beat... I'd report it on next service and try to demonstrate it to them, might get you a replacement BT unit.

I was wondering if it would be possible to add the OEM Bluetooth option aftermarket that is fully integrated into the MFD Plus and my RCD510?
I asked my dealer and he said no? So i was wondering if he is right or wrong.

As long as you have white MFD, I don't see the reason why it shouldn't be possible?

If you're in Sydney, that's what 2 north shore VW dealers told me too, something about "factory cellular preparation", which couldn't be done at a dealer. They're wrong.

Sure am in Sydney.

Did you manage to get yours done? If so, where at?
