MDI niggles

[xblode]

I'll be back in my car in a few hours, I'll note down where the settings are

Did you read the manual ?

Thanks for pointing us in the right direction

The distortion was cured by lowering the AUX / MDI input from 2 -> 1, playing with the volume on the ipod / iphone didn't really help much.

Ok, here goes!

1. Press SETUP.
2. On the touchscreen, press MEDIA.
3. On the left, you'll see AUX Input Level. Pressing the text next to it will reveal 3 options;

Level 1 (1.5v)
Level 2 (0.7v)
Level 3 (0.3v)

With my iPhone, Level 1 gives the best quality as coreying has explained in an earlier post

Peace Out!

Thanks for that!

i found that too in the manual and when set to lvl 2 all the distortion is gone! yay! now to research that little rattle i hear then head over to volkspower for some APR and then my golf will be perfect.

get Volkspower to help you locate the rattle... kill two birds with one stone

[ripblade]

alas, from what I read the rattle is a known problem which VW ain't going to do anything about it!

Who ever finds a way to fix this (independent) will be getting quite a lot of business.

Now to email Volkspower.

My MDI was fine for 3 months, then started only playing my ipod via RHS speakers, changed to my ipod touch was fine, now doesn't recognise any of them!!!
WHat a waste of money not only for the MDI plus the additional cost of the IPOD lead! Going to phone a dealer next week!

[Corey_R]

It's a waste of money cause you're the first person ever to report that issue? I'm not sure I follow your logic there
I'd say it's possibly that just the Ipod cable has a break in it etc. But let us know how it goes after you've spoken to your dealer

Have my MDI hooked up to an 8GB thumb drive, works a treat. No problems what so ever apart from being slow too boot sometimes, people just need to use something aside from their despicable apple products.

Stoney!

Similar issues but my ipod just wasnt be detected as a media input, then I tried my usb...that worked for a couple weeks, now neither work.

My car goes in next Tues to get this looked at and also my drivers side mirror fixed.
