What have you heard about the adapter?

do a search on here, you have to have play lists set up and the skipping is screwy or something ... kinda forgot but i know it just put me off it when I read it, might not bother other people. Don't get me wrong it works fine just not with the functionality that i want.

As Blitzen said the link is above

This is what put me off

Hi mate,

One of the things I had optioned when I got mine in January was the VW Ipod adapter. Silly me thought a fusion of VW engineering and Apple would be quality....

I can only say don't do it.

Reasoning

The Adapter sits in your glovebox, you can't have the ipod outside of the glovebox without having the glovebox open otherwise it crimps the lead (unbelievable but true)

When you plug your ipod in ALL functions become non operable, you can only change the track via the track forward and backward button on the stereo, its very inflexible and ruins it in my opinion.

The damn thing doesn't switch off when you turn off the ignition so you have to disconnect it and turn it off otherwise it sits there charging and draining your battery!

I wish I had saved the money and installed a different none VW one

I hope this helps you not make the same mistake, and it is a mistake. I'm very disappointed in it, although still use it to play my tunes.

Thats pretty ridiculous when they are charging almost $400 for it.

VW Waitara can do Black or Silver 08 Compliance with leather for $29,970 drive away.

Reckons thats the absolute lowest they can go.

$530 dollars better than I did, they wouldnt go under $30,180
and that's only if I could go under corporate program which I couldn't.

Thats a pretty damn good price, even if it was 07 compliance.

Which dealership?
