    Bluetooth Standard on Golf?

    Hi, looking at a second hand mk6 golf and wondered if Bluetooth is standard on any of the models? On car sales I can't seem to find Bluetooth listed as a feature on any cars and wanted to check if I'd need to buy a phone car kit or something for a mk6 golf?
    Thanks

    Depends on the year of the car. On my MY11.5 Golf R i paid $500 (or thereabouts) for the Bluetooth option, but from MY12 the Bluetooth came standard.

    Not sure about the cheaper models.

    Bluetooth

    I figured the GTI and R probably have Bluetooth fitted but I'm guessing on Trendline and comfortline it was an option most people didn't get?

    re: Bluetooth Standard on Golf?

    You can buy and retrofit the genuine Bluetooth system from carsystems.eu

    You'll need to enlist the help of someone who has VCDS to enable the system after it's installed but this is usually pretty easy to organise. Check the VCDS subforum for a thread where you can ask for help.

    Not all Golfs Gtis have Bluetooth when I was looking a found a fair few without. I was surprised. I think in the later MY12.5 models it became standard.

    Bluetooth

    Thanks that's what I needed to know. Looking at a MY11 I might need to retrofit Bluetooth. $500 ain't too bad.

    Can anyone offer some tips for buying a second hand Jetta or Golf? What are some of the weak points of a used VW? Looking at a 2009 Jetta 147 :/

    The 2009 Jetta is based on the Mk5 Golf. Suggest you ask in this forum: Mk5 Golf & Jetta
