Re: RCD 510

Tony, For what it's worth...I've always had major problems with my iPhone too (an iPhone4 - I realise you have a 4S but same ballpark anyway). Have always had the same connection problems you mentioned (and identical 'error' message). I spent a while getting bounced around VW customer support (great...

Re: Crash damage repair

Many thanks for the advice and insights everyone. Sounds like the moral of the story is to go with good reputation over 'approved' or 'manufacturer recommended' - same with most things I guess! sarit84 - I'll be sure to check them out. I've seen the name come up before elsewhere, that had a positive...

Crash damage repair

Hi folks, I got rear ended this morning whilst sitting in traffic. Back end is a bit of a mess - badly dented in around the licence plate, boot won't quite close properly. Impacted caused me to shunt into the car in front so the plastic grill is cracked and some of the panels there are misaligned. N...

Re: iPhone4 MDI connection

Hey dimexi, Hmm interesting...I was starting to believe VW in that the problem was unique (i.e. just my iPhone). Symptoms certainly sound the same - restarting the engine sometimes works for me (tried it whilst idle in traffic before). I was thinking of upgrading to RNS-510 as well but am reluctant ...

Re: iPhone4 MDI connection

Only have one other mate nearby who has an iPhone4 (all the rest belong to the Blackberry brigade), and that didn't work either...we're both running iOS 6.1.3 on our phones...is that the same as you, RisingRoc? Haven't tried a factory reset, will give that a shot. My gf has a 5 year old iPod that wo...

iPhone4 MDI connection

Hi folks, I'm having problems successfully connecting my iPhone4 to the RCD-510 media unit. I'm using the MDI socket under the arm rest using the VW supplied connector cable. Since buying the car (2010 Scirocco GT, bought second hand end of last year), the iPhone has always had an intermittent conne...

Re: On the red!

I'm guessing you'll have made your journey to the pumps by now so this will be a bit late, but for what it's worth... My other half came to pick me up from Luton the other week. When I got in the car, I noticed the fuel light was on. I asked how long it had been on for - she said she had heard a &qu...

Re: My Scirroco GT was broken into...

Sorry to hear about the extortionate final cost of the damage from your break in, I'll count myself lucky I didn't have to get my insurance company involved. I'm a young-ish driver too, and living in London my premium is high enough as it is without giving them an excuse to bump it up any more! Not ...

Re: My Scirroco GT was broken into...

Exact same thing happened to me last night...I have to park on the road outside my flat so there will always be increased vulnerability but I didn't expect someone to be able to render my car's security useless so easily! Thankfully no permanent damage to the car (as far as I can tell) and all that ...

SatNav retrofit costs

Hi folks, New to the forum so apologies if this has been answered somewhere before but I couldn't find an existing topic that exactly matched this one. I'm looking to buy a second hand Roc (2.0 TSI GT, black and with leather upholstery and fairly high spec – as much in the way of parking sensors, Dy...
