    Bluetooth & Car kit

    Hi All

    If you ever have a problem with pairing your iPhone with the VW Car kit, here is the solution. I found the answer in an Apple forum.

    The problem - I paired my iPhone with the VW car kit (mine was the normal car kit and not the premium) and was receiving and making calls over the handsfree feature and listening to bluetooth audio in the media. However while trying to pair the new Tom Tom car kit (Iphone, I noted only pairs with one device at a time), I accidentally hit the "forget this device" button on the iPhone. The result was that I could not pair the iPhone again with the VW car kit.

    I raised this problem earlier in one off the segments here, but the recommended answer (to reset network settings on the iPhone)did not resolve the problem.

    The Solution - Hit "reset all settings" on the iPhone (Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings). It will not erase any data but only settings like your home screen etc. Once you have reset, you then pair the iPhone again with the VW car kit as usual.

    To the Moderator - Feel free to move it to the right segment, if it not an appropriate new thread. I think it will be an ongoing issue and should stay on the forum, maybe in "Tiguan accessory". I also feel it will be useful for the entire forum.

    Thanks.

    Believe it or not there are those people that don't and won't join the iphone and ipod circus and will buy their products based on features and usability!

    You might want to edit the title and add in more information to make this thread more useful, something like "bluetooth pairing problem with iphone/ipod with vw car kit and audio" as more people will find it and those that don't have iphone/ipod's can ignore it.

    I've moved this thread from the Tiguan section to the Car Audio and Electronics section as there are others that might find this useful.
