RCD500 and iPod
« on: June 14, 2014, 10:07:04 pm »
I have a rcd500 in my car with the iPod lead in the glovebox but can't seem to get the iPod to play. The vw logo shows on the iPod when I plug it in but I've no idea how to get the stereo to play it. Am I being stupid here?

This ^^ plus you will only see six playlists on the head unit screen for the ipod.
Without traction power is nothing!

Haha cheers guys, must have pressed every other button and couldn't see anything in the manual about it.

Will come in handy until I get a new stereo
