[QUOTE=YellowLemon;1134437]2011 MY bluetooth works fine with iPhone.
1. Have you tested with another phone and it's all working OK? So the problem is JUST iPhone?
2. What do you mean 'not recognising'? Ie, you go through the MFD menu, do "Add new phone", and it can't see your phone? Have you put your phone into pairing mode first.
2. Just after you turn on the car ignition, on your phone do a bluetooth scan can you see "VW" in the bluetooth list? Just add that (from the phone) and it should work fine.

Cheers for the quick response
I have tried all of the above except for a different brand phone!! If this doesn't work my Bluetooth must be broken, I have paired my phone with a lot of different Bluetooth systems and got it to work fine, on the MFD in the van it said looking for phone but it's not finding my iPhone!!
I might have to pull the radio out and see what is going on!
And I will give the installation of the RVC a go in the next couple of weeks
Thanks again

For YellowLemon I just read back through your great write up and noticed one thing that could have been avoided . If I am not mistaken you do not need to connect a wire from the reverse light it is part of the Can Bus connection at the back of the radio connector . I fitted an aftermarket unit to our T5.2 and reverse camera and as I had already done my early model T5 with reverse camera thought it would need the reverse light signal . So after running a wire from the back all the way to the front found out that the original connector had the reverse signal already in the harness DOH . So when reverse is selected the factory connection gives the signal to the head unit , wasted and hour or so on that folly .

Actually the bluetooth module lives under one of the front seats .. very easy to access or swap out.
