I've just bought a vii highline, with a Discover Media system in it. Reading up in the instruction book it says:
The vehicle may be fitted with a MEDIA-IN multi-media interface...
REQUIREMENTS
Compatible Data Storage Devices... IPods and IPhones of various generations...
Adapter for connecting a data storage device. An external data storage device should be connected to the MEDIA-IN multimedia interface via an adapter. AN adapter is supplied with the interface. Other adapters are available from a Volkswagen dealership. Do not use memory card adapters, USB extension cables or USB hubs.

I've tried to use the Apple cable and the phone will charge but will not play music. I have also attempted to contact the VW dealership to find out where the supplied cable is but they are yet to call me back...MY16 Octavia RS 162 Race Blue Combi

Because VW Australia are idiots who think the Australian consumers will accept old sheet shoveled down their collective throats.

Jeez I'm pissed about this. Have 140gb of cd quality music on an iPod Classic that we can't use. Using sad or flash drives just sounds like a ridiculous solution. I connected an iPod to a 2013 Passat so can't believe a mk 7 won't accept it. Lift your game VWA.

Had a good look at an Audi A3 sedan yesterday. Connected my phone via Bluetooth and it displayed my album art while playing music and even read out a text message. These things don't happen on a Golf 7. All part of the Volkswagen group so go figure!MY14 Golf VII 110 TDI Highline | DSG 6 spd | Pure White | Bi-Xennon | Sunroof | Driver Assist 2 | Leather |

Was not impressed. Put on Mogwai Fear Satan which is 18 minutes of instrumental post rock bliss with lots of difference in volume etc and the sound quality and glitches was not impressive at all.Audi S3. Sold

Don't know if it is the same with Audi or other vehicles in the VW stable.MK7 MY14 Golf 103 TSI Highline | Pure White | DSG | Anti Theft | Sunroof | Bi Xenon | Driver Assist | Leather | 18' Motorsport wheels
