BlueTooth related questions (all BT questions go in this thread only)

Should be under the seat, also a chance it's behind the A/C controls.

Pretty sure you can get that icon to appear regardless of having the ability via an option in your HU (under Setup)

Hello,
I read throw this thread and wanted to share my issues.
I have a European golf tdi 2010 4 motion with an RCD 510 (rev A i think)
I did install a 9w7 K revision i bought in Spain last month..
I used vcds to set it up and it works just fine except that i cannot hear people talking to me (There is sound but extremely weak) . I can dial, i can talk to them (They can hear me well), i can do everything. However very very low sound volume. I checked the volume button, try to increase the telephone base volume using vcds and played around with what i could.
A2dp works great but only on the left speakers (front and back) and sounds is very good for it...
So why would A2dp works fine from phone while i can barely hear people when they speak?
I read the entire Internet and found nobody with the same issue
any idea?
By the way, for those who has the bluetooth audio option grayed out, you need to start music on your phone then it will be available. After you select it, the sound will be transferred to to the speakers
Thank you
Best from Norway

Hi Cedric
I suspect your wiring may be incorrect at pins 5&6 and 11&12 in the green plug that goes into the back of the radio. The fact that your your a2dp only works on the left speaker only tells me there is something wrong there. Secondly i read in another forum/thread incoming calls I think are only played through the front speakers only.

Did your kit come with an option to wire up the loom for the voice control option that is offered on some of the rns510 navi units? If so double check the wiring is correctly joined up

Hello i will check it. I succeded to make the voice control to work and same isue, the voice is very weak and i can barely hear it... Could you eloborate the ""loom" stuff you are mentionning. Might be my english. I got a passthrough cable that has 2 unused connectors. by reading things out there, it is only for connecting to an RNS510 if you want voice control. so are you saying i should connect the 2 unused connector together?
Thanks you for your understanding

Hey guys,

I have a Mark V Golf GTI and would like to have Bluetooth available. I've got the stock standard media unit - What is the best way to get the integrated Bluetooth installed on my car? Run it past a dealer and ask how much it would be?

Thanks.

Get a 9wz unit online and install it. Either carsystems.pl or eBay seller bluwagen.

Make sure you get one that supports the red MFD, not the white one in the Mk6

Can someone link me to it? I can't find a 9wz unit on that page (blind perhaps yes).
Will this allow me to use the bluetooth connectivity and the controls on the wheel? Any place I can get it installed?

FST Auto Penrith VW Specialist Highly recommend these guys at Penrith, they may be able to find you a BT unit.

Hi guys,

Just installed the latest bluetooth unit (7P6035730L) from carsystems.pl, everything is working perfectly except that the AVRCP isn't working as claimed and i've also lost my factory AUX function.

Does anyone have any ideas on this issue?

Thanks.

[Ryan_R]

What phone/music app are you using?

Run a VCDS scan to check the AUX error + ensure AUX is enabled in the HU Settings (try turning the setting off and back on again)

[Blair]

Hi Ryan,

I'm using an iphone. I think the AUX issue has something to do with the wire loom. If i have the AUX plugged in I can hear the music in the right speaker for a split second, then nothing and it's continuously shaded out on the head unit.

Hoping that the AVRCP can be activated via coding, will have to find someone in the North Sydney area who can help me out.

Thanks for your help.

[Ryan_R]

That's possible too. On my old 9W3 kit the loom didn't have all the wires needed but I've since upgraded to a 9W7 kit which did have them all, plus I changed the order of the piggy back looms (I have one for MDI and for BT). If it is a wiring issue you should have an error show up in a VCDS scan.

Post in the VCDS forums to see if any Sydneysiders can help.

Bluetooth issues

Had my Mark 6 GTI for about 18 months and no real issues with the bluetooth until the last week.

I used to be able to press the phone button on the steering wheel and it took me straight to the phone menu on the MFD, now it just does nothing. Unless I hold it down it then dials the last dialed number.

I also like to drive with my MFD on the number of minutes i've been driving for (one of the options on MFD) but noticed that it kept change itself to the phone menu showing my signal/battery/phone name etc... I'd change it back to the minutes option and then a few seconds to a few minutes later it would switch to the phone option again... I think I've figure out it's swapping when the signal on my phone changes, ie increases from 3 to 4 bars, or say decreases from 5 to 4 bars.. i watch my phone, see the signal change and within about 2 seconds the MFD changes back to phone.

I tried reset factory settings on the MFD yesterday but it hasn't made any difference.

I've also noticed that it's not connecting sometimes when i get int he car, i have to click connect. It's also disconnecting sometimes. I've deleted the pairing with my phone and recreated it but that hasn't helped.

My phone is an iPhone 5 with iOS6.0.1 but i've had the iPhone 5 since it came out a few months ago and been running iOS6.0.1 for a few weeks, this issue only started happening last week.

If it was just a disconnecting issue i could see it being the phones fault, but the fact my MFD keeps switching back to the phone menu (when the signal is changing) I'm leaning more towards it being a car/bluetooth issue but nothings changed on that side...

Anyone got any ideas?

I had a similar but not identical problem with my MK6 GTD. It was impossible to activate the phone from either the touchscreen or the button on the steering wheel and the telephone had disappeared from the MFD completely. A quick diagnostic on the dealers computer resolved the problem. Was a very quick fix. Hope this helps.
