My11 118tsi: is Bluetooth standard?

[TSIfan]

Hi all, looking at a 2010 (my11) 118tsi octavia with factory Columbus nav.... Should this come with Bluetooth standard?

[BottomScratcher]

No standard BT in the MY11.

Bugger!!

If it has the columbus, then I think it does have Bluetooth????

Actually...best way to tell is to try pairing / searching for the device I guess...

not the case.
as bottomscratcher said already - my11 did not come with bt standard.

i retrofitted mine. works just like factory fit

I started out looking at Fiscon as well. Fitted an OEM unit from Poland. Plenty of BT info on equipment and its suppliers via the link here. Scroll down to Bluetooth information, and off you go.

i got the 9WZ unit, however i bought mine off a forum member for a bargain $150.
i bought the bt wiring harness seperately from ebay.
more info here on my install.

The OEM units that bottomscratcher mentions is from carsystems.pl

my MY12.5 columbus has the "factory" bluetooth, and it is great.
quite seemless really...

except, when I turn on the ignition, it takes approx 5 seconds before pairing, and that takes a further 5 seconds to actually pair.
so the music etc goes mute, then the pairing happens, then the music comes back...

Is that normal?
