Media in MDI adaptor cable RNS510

[ian]

This question I suppose has been asked before , I have a VW golf Gt 2008/09 fitted with a RNS510 C, I suppose its from a 2010 or latter, I can't seem to find on that's suitable for a 2008 golf there all 2009 or latter.
Or should I just take a chance and see if it will work ?

Thanks Hillbilly this should plug straight into the MDI cable in the glove box ,I hope ?

[Hillbilly]

I bought that cable but it does not fit my vehicle ,as it has a iPhone connection already in the glove box but its not compatible ,so what do I do to correct the situation ?I'll have to send that cable back as its no good to me .picture of glove box cable.

Thanks hillbilly I know its a pain but how do I get it to work because when I plug it into the iPhone 4s it says its not compatible ,is there some firmware which just might fix the problem?

If you have an MDI connection it the glove box you should be able to use the black cable you posted in your original post.
It goes in with the cable to the right and connects to your iphone .

I had one in the Passat but rarely used it as it was in a dropdown box in the glovebox and a pain to use.

I have my music on the HDD in the nav unit and also on an SD card.

Sold the cable when I swapped phones.

What I meant about the power pad was the phone used to show a message saying that "the attached ??? was not compatible" so I just cancelled it and it still charged and meant if you get a similar message with the MDI cable cancel it and see what happens.

Maybe the MDI unit is not enabled in VCDS.
If that white cable is already plugged into the MDI it maybe should work unless its just a charging cable otherwise the black one should as its the same as the one I had
The one you have just posted only transfers from the headphone connector on the phone doesn't it Not much good
