iPod Integration
I have the latest iPod Nano 7th Generation.
I use my 3.5mm AUX socket to listen to my music while in the car. I've tried to connect it via Bluetooth but with no luck.
Does anybody know of a way i can use the iPod in conjunction with my touchscreen?
Can i get the songs to show up on the touchscreen and skip to next song if i want to?
Cheers

I haven't got a MDI socket in my car. Just the AUX socket.Andy Rocc wrote:You will the VW MDI lead which you can get from the dealers.

Trust me Andy i'm no novice haha!! I have 2009 Rocco. I've looked everywhere and there is definitely no MDI socket.Andy Rocc wrote:Oh right, I thought all scirocco's has the socket. Have you looked in the arm rest?
In the arm rest i have a 6 CD multi changer and between the arm rest and handbrake i have a AUX socket.

Re: iPod Integration
The CD changer is an either/or option with MDI.
You can have one or the other, not both.
I had the CD changer and fitted a denon gadget that gave me an iPod connection which worked great with my RNS 510. It was cheaper than removing the CD changer and fitting a VW MDI connection.

Have you got a link of that gadget you bought? Is it easy to install? I also have the RNS 510 unit.

Re: iPod Integration
You can buy iPod adaptors pretty cheaply from the internet. I would recommend a VW one or the XCarLink one... it plugs into the slot of your CDC... doesn't provide full functionality but you can adjust volume, skip tracks and change playlists (up to 6 sorted alphabetically).

Re: iPod Integration
Yes, sorry, it was Denison.
Sextons in Wandsworth, london fitted it, the car was there for a Revo map so they did a good deal on it for me. It had full functionality, same as a factory MDI.
I dont remember the exact model sorry.
