OEM Bluetooth issue! no response!

[betasoot]

Hi,

I got a 09 golf 118 tis, rcd 510 radio. I installed a OEM bluetooth unit in the car (Part Number: 1K8 035 730 D, Novero) and connected to 510. Seems nothing happens: iphone can not find the device, the bluetooth audio still in grey, no bluetooth set up pops up. Absolute no responses.

Does anyone know what should i do as there is no phone option pop up in the menu i have no control over this. PLease advise if i need to send to dealer to do the recoding or just something simple set ups i could do it home.

Thanks
Betasoot

I'm pretty sure you need coding for the car to know you've got BT.

I guess that's the thing can only be done in the dealership. Actually the seller has provided me a serial of code i just have no idea where to put them in.

THanks

The part number you've given (1K8 035 730 D) is for a 9W2 Module. It's quite old, as a side-note.

When installing Bluetooth, the BT unit & car will need to be coded correctly using a VAG-Com cable. This can be done by a dealer (for a fee), or it can be done by one of the many forum members on here who have a cable and will help you.

If you get stuck, I'll assist for my standard fee of a bottle of alcohol.

I don't have experience installing the BT module (as my RCD510 already came with one) so I'm not sure what you meant by serial code. Contact a mechanic that specialises in VW cars. They should have access to VCDS. Would probably be cheaper than going to a dealership.

This may not apply to the 9W2, but when I installed the 9W7 (with a RCD510) and did not have the coding done, I could still use the BT but only if the RCD510 was switched on. I could pair the phone and use the telephone menu on the RCD510, but the steering wheel buttons and the MFD display didn't work. Nor could I set any options on the BT. After I had the coding done, then I could use the steering wheel buttons and the MFD display and could set the BT options. VW Village did the coding for me.

Will need to code the vehicle as per here.
