View 24 RepliesJust got my car yesterday, and having trouble to play iPod in the car. I turned on the AUX input and plug my iPod in, the interface on the radio doesn't allow me to do anything.
View 7 Replies i just got a 2008 FEH 100K paid 11500 out the door 12800 is that a good deal? everything is clean. It has the upgraded sound system but i noticed that some feh have the mpg displayed on the screen it look like the feh with navigation not sure if this is seperate from nav or just part of touch screen. in any case is it possible to just install the stock dvd/nav stereo to get the mpg avg screen? if so is ther a guide
also is there a good read around here for new feh owners? looking to get the most mpg out of this ride.
This morning I'm heading to work and noticed that my local radio station was broadcasting WAAAAYYYYY too much bass. It sounded like I had turned up the bass all the way and turned everything else down. The volume level was reasonable, but the bass was rattling the doors and causing distortion as if the volume was all the way up.
I changed the station and it seemed better when I came back, so I just thought it was a glitch at the radio station. Then it started again. I tried all other means of playing music and they were all affected. Just to see what would happen, I shut off the engine at a light and started it back up. This seems to have corrected the problem. Now I'm nervous though. This is the sort of random malfunction that made me hesitant to buy German.
My car is a 2011 4dr GTI w/autobahn package.
I have an 03 golf with the double din tape/cd player and what appears to be an amplifier in the hatch on the drivers side.
While driving to work on monday it just suddenly got silent mid song. I tried changing the station and popping a cd in and nothing....
Also have tried turning it on/off... Anything else I can do? The deck functions normally but makes no noise.
How do you connect your Ipod? New deck, cable, or wireless?
View 24 RepliesI have a 2008 Passat Lux with an ipod dock in my glove compartment which I would like to turn into an aux input if possible. There is no AUX input under my hand-rest so the ipod connector in my glove compartment seems to be the only way for me to listen to my music from my phone in the car. I have found several cables that convert IPod to 3.5mm jack (and hopeful vice-versa?) Will this work somehow or am I stuck with the ipod connector without any aux input?

I have the jbl stereo and when I start the car it literally takes 2 solid minutes or so to connect sometimes i have to turn the radio off and then back on to get it to connect always has done it. Tried with other phones also i use a iphone 6.
View 7 Replieshow do you connect from the amp to the deck? Im completely confused and lost. I have a 2013 prius 2 so no JBL.
View 1 RepliesAbout 1 week ago my stock stereo started buzzing very loudly at random times. I happens with radio, aux and cd. Also here is a link to a video of it happening, skip to the last 10 seconds.BUZZ
View 4 RepliesCan use the iPod Interface Kit for my 2005 Avalon? It states "Either iPod or Sat Radio can be installed, not both". I do have the JBL Audio system but don't have the Satellite radio. It also mentions it works with the 2007 Avalon, aren't they pretty much the same, 2005-2007? URL...
View 11 RepliesSo picked my .:R up last week from out of state. Go to register it yesterday and find out DEQ can't connect to the car's ECU. So then I took it to my local VW shop and the owner couldn't get the car to connect using VCDS. My immediate thought is, I wonder if he swapped the stereo at one point OR a fuse was blown. Contacted the previous owner and he told me he never messed with the radio on the car, he left it stock (just like the rest of the car - in immaculate condition) and that he had plugged it in last summer and it worked fine then - the last time he used the OBDII port. Today after work I get home and checked every fuse on the drivers side panel of the dash, by pulling each one out and inspecting. Every fuse was good, not one blown fuse.
Still I'm having issues connecting to the ECU... not linked to the K-wire? My buddy and I pulled the deck out on Monday night, and the previous owner had the OEM 30-pin ipod interface installed and it looks like they tapped a few wires on the factory harness. That interface pigtail replaces the factory pig tail for the changer if equipped in the rear, and goes in the big connector in the back of the OEM deck..
I've been using my iPhone 4S with no issues on my mdi interface, as well as Bluetooth. I figured I would use a older iPod which has a lot of memory and I could just leave it plugged in all the time on my mdi. The mdi cable that I have is 5N0 035 554 -B version.
My iPod 5G video, was on old firmware 1.0, so I updated it to 1.3 which is the last version that apple released. But still not luck with this device appearing on my RNS-315 media mdi input. Just to note that the iPod is configured as follows: Format = Windows, Enable disk use is selected.
Any tricks that I should try to get it working ? (iPod works fine, connects to my iMac without issue). When the mdi cable is plugged in, it is charging the device.
I have a second generation ipod and it will play when plugged in the car but nothing comes up on the screen. What type of interface comes up on the nav screen when a compatible 3rd, 4th, or 5th generation ipod is used. Also, am I correct that all new ipods are 6th generation and they're not compatible.
View 2 RepliesI must be missing something obvious... I have a new GTI MkVI and love it dearly. My ipod plays well through the doohickey in the armrest. But I can't find any pause/stop/play controls anywhere. I listen to audiobooks a lot in the car, so really want to pause or stop the book while I make a call, or when I stop the car. The only way I have found to do that is to unplug the ipod, which is tiresome.
View 10 RepliesIs it okay to always leave my iPod connected to the MDI? I ask because I noticed it continues to charge my iPod even when the car is off. I don't want to hurt the battery if I leave my iPod connected 24/7. On the other hand, it would be a lot more convenient to leave it plugged in all the time.
View 3 RepliesI know what your thinking RTFM, but I did and so did the salesman but I cannot seem to get my IPod 160gig Classic to work. I turned it to FM inserted the IPod with screen facing right. Docked in the cradle which seems a little loose but it is docked and it does come on.
I then try and hit CD once and even twice both with and without a CD in the slot. But I cannot get anything from the IPod. I tried Aux but I believe that is the Aux port. Is there a setting in the setup?
Also can I use a 160gig Classic? In the manual it does not list that as a supported model. But I thought it was the same as a 60gig video Ipod. I purchased this IPod specifically for this car and really hope that it works as it is the only IPod that will fit all my music.
I have a 2010 Jetta Sportwagen TDI with manual transmission. I'm really loving the heck out of it with only one real mechanical issue so far (a faulty Turbocharger Pressure Relief Valve). However, the RCD-510 has a truly horrible iPod interface. It's insanely slow, often won't show its "busy waiting" greyed out screen when it is cogitating forever about how to do its job and it fades up the beginning of every song resulting in the first half second of the song being lost.
Given how bad this is, I'm hoping that there's new firmware available for the RCD510 to correct these defects. Or, if not, where can I go to file bug reports? It's not clear who the real manufacturer is. It's also not clear how to tell what version of firmware it currently has or how one would upgrade to a newer version ..
I just received a new 7th Generation iPod Nano and it does not display album art on the head unit. It works when using my iPhone 6, but the Nano shows nothing...
View 4 RepliesWe had it working when the we first purchased the car. Now it doesn't seem to work at all. We pushed CD twice to get to AUX, but AUX doesn't show up.

We tried it with an iPhone and iPod nano (older one)....
I have iPhone, how to connect to the stereo with AUX. Plus, I don't know where and what kind of AUX cable I should buy?
