Hi everyone, recently became the proud owner of an '06 reg GTi. Having been in the hunt (seriously) for the past 8 months after years of dreaming, I finally found something which ticked all the boxes, and there were a lot of boxes! After a couple of weeks of pure enjoyment and getting to know my new baby, I'm starting to discover a few niggles! The first of which I'm looking for some help on.
The car has an rcd510 touch screen stereo, which I'm presuming wasn't standard on this year of manufacture (although I stand corrected on that). The problem I have is with the iPod connector, located in the glove box. When connecting my iPod touch (3rd gen) it's not recognised by the stereo. I've tried the aux function, which comes up blank, no options available. The iPod doesn't charge either.
I'm coming in a bit blind here as was fitted by previous owner with no documentation or invoice.
Am I missing something simple in terms of the stereo functions or is it possible it has never worked and I've inherited a bad DIY job..by!
Would appreciated any thoughts or suggestions
Cheers,
Stewart
