What have you done with your Polo so far (and today)

[himynameisbryce]

Got my KW V1s in this week.

Oh nice one!

Was having a couple of problems with my RCD510 and iPhone 6 compatibility.. I also wanted an RVC.

So I decided to buy a Pioneer X3700DAB

Additionally to Bluetooth I get to have;
- iPod functionality with AppConnect (Nav etc.)
- No touch Siri functionality
- Reverse camera
- Digital Radio
- DVD playback

I don't have to lose my steering wheel buttons AND the sound quality is better
I took a few pictures


All this for just under $550






Testing the new unit out before I start attaching other bits and pieces


Installing the new external mic




And the digital radio antenna


Little hole to feed the RVC cable through








All affixed


Made use of that little empty panel in the glove box


Accidentally cracked it... But i'm not too phased.




Finished! Can even change the colours of my buttons and the screen themes haha

That looks awesome. Great install.

I would be interested to do this on my car, but would it be a pain with the integrated bluetooth/mic, steering wheel controls be connected to the new headunit?

Because you've got the MY15 GTI, I wouldn't be uninstalling the screen and things in that in a hurry, you will lose such things like vehicle settings.. and the fascia would cost a mint..

I didn't use my in built mic or 9w7 bluetooth unit (both were sh*t anyway), as you can see above, I installed an external microphone and the bluetooth came built into the head unit. Not quite sure where the bluetooth is installed in the 6C polo's whether it's under the seat again or in the actual unit

The steering wheel controls wasn't a drama, the aerpro cabling I used and converts the VW steering wheel control language into Pioneer language to still have full functionality.

After 5500kms, calipers and inside of the rims are clean again!

Serviced the TDI today at 125,000km.
Minor service, so only oil filter and oil replaced, took at most 30 mins to complete the job.
Total parts cost: $78.66 using Shell Helix Ultra ECT 5W-30 (VW 504.00/507.00) ($48.57) and a WIX Filtron oil filter ($7.92). Also used Liqui Moly's Mos2 additive ($17.69) as its spoken highly of throughout several VW diesel forums, and I think it makes a difference, too. Replacement drain plug (as the crush washer is captive) was $4.48.

*note the above photo was from the previous service I did a few months back - didn't have a photo on hand of today's service.

I installed a 2013 gti interior in my 2015 polo tsi wish I knew how to add photos.. Looks and feels so much better when driving.. But I now had the airbag light on.. I'm going to see volkshome in Thomastown to hopefully be able to get rid of it.
