I had mine there but moved it to where the ashtray is so I can actually control the ipod without having to lean over to the glovebox.

Avc-9000

Hi guys,

Has anyone installed the camera on a GTI? If so where did you put it?

thanks

If you look at the thread in the radio section of the forum, there are pics of my camera.

Hi guys,

i am currently having the AVC9000 installed into my GTI and the auto electrician has called me with 2 problems.

1. there does not appear to be any sat nav software installed (Route ot Tomtom). Is this on an SD card or does it come pre-installed?

2. The steering wheel buttons dont work even though he has connected it. has he connected the right way?

Any help would really be appreciated

thanks

AVC-9000 is not compatible with VW steering wheel controls.

Steering wheel controls work for me.

Hi Guys,
i have just had the avc9000 and am having a few issues with a hissing/crackling sound when the volume is turned right down. any ideas?

i noticed this on mine today... sitting in driveway with accessories on to play around with the unit.... with volume off it gives off a very low hissing noise.

[Paul_OH]

I think that most of the queries raised have already been covered in the other post on AVC9000, however to save a search can provide the following:

Volume, mute and source select (left hand steering buttons) work. Track select does not
The hissing noise is caused by the DBAS button and/or the loudness button in setup. Turning these "boosters" off will get rid of the hiss/hum but sound quality will be reduced.

I hope this helps

My mistake

Sorry guys, its the MFD that the AVC-9000 won't play with.

[3Putt]

System still lacking grunt / sound quality...

I don't know about you guys, but i think the small difference that the AVC's 4x50W (compared to 4x35W from factory) amp makes is not really enough.

Does anyone know if an aftermarket amp is the best way to get better sound quality, or do i need to swap out the speakers.

I'm looking for quality not quantity - a bit more bass but mainly clarity and clean base is what i'm after.

Has been covered in numerous threads concerning the AVC. The AVC will not play with the MFD....it will only link with the steering wheel controls (Left Hand Side only)
