All your MY12.5+ Bluetooth Touch Adaptor Answers

**mb1991** · 02-07-2014, 02:36 PM

Hi All,

I have been reading over and over (and over) this thread as I picked up my Polo 77TSI on Monday and absolutely hate the touch adapter. One of the major issues that I have had is that when I make a call and no body answers the touch adapter never disconnects from the call making the RCD310 unusable.

Has anyone else had this issue? I want to upgrade to the RCD510 in the future but am not in a financial position to do so at the moment so I'm thinking maybe the best thing to do would be to get someone to code out the touch adapter...

Other than this issue though, I LOVE THE CAR. Much better than the fiesta I had previously.

Anyone able to help?

My wife's Polo was a pain in the arse until she bought an RCD510, then all was well (CD quality streaming/hands free phone calls etc).

You can pick up an RCD for not much over $200.00.

I would love to upgrade to the RCD510 but there is one more problem that I forgot to mention. The car I have is on a novated lease and I am not sure if I would be able to make a change like that to the car. Any opinions?

You could argue that the unit is not functioning correctly and therefore needs repairing. The cost of the new unit could then be claimed as a repair. Disclaimer: I'm not an accountant!

UPDATE:

So I went into the VW dealership this morning and they are going to replace the unit. I just wish I could get rid of it all together.

I also asked the parts dept about a genuine iPhone 5 Handy adapter and they said that they are available, but the cost is $230. I just wish I could connect the Bury System 9 without the coding. I asked the dealership about the coding and they had no idea, then told me it couldn't be done.

Is anyone able to help me with this in Sydney?

Sure you can do it. You could buy a cheap vag com cable off eBay and code it out yourself. There is step by step on a sticky somewhere on this forum. And am sure one of the guys on here can help too

I would love to be able to do it myself but the issue is that I have a Mac and I don't think that the VCDS will run on Mac

Is there someone around here that could give me a hand?

I work in Rosebery so if there is someone close to there that could help I would be so happy.

I wish! If only it was that easy. My computer is a work supplied laptop so I cant put a boot camp partition on to it. Plus I would have to buy a licence. I think in the end the cost would just amount to the same as if I bought the VW genuine cradle!

Just out of curiosity, how much would it cost for one of you to code the touch adapter out for me?
