Ladies ( If there are any here) and Gentlemen,

 

I've recently purchased a Superb 3.6 4x4, which I am trying to gain some knowledge on.

 

I've been a long time BMW man, so very new to the VAG world.

 

I have a couple of smaller issues I am trying to get an understanding of.

 

First of all, I have the Columbus unit and can connect to Bluetooth audio, but the "Phone" options do not appear on the Maxidot, nor do they appear on the Columbus.

 

I've tried looking under the seats for the Bluetooth module to disconnect, but couldn't find anything. I disconnected the Columbus unit from the wiring at the back of the unit, but this has no changed anything.

 

Another issue that's come up today is that I had to remove the gauge cluster to change the front parking speaker. When the cluster was reconnected, the mileage seems to have increased?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Pls share VIN so I can check BT module version you have.

Thanks pab567,

 

I've PM'd you.

@MisterSkoda it looks that your car was NOT equipped with Bluetooth module when manufactured so it must have been retrofitted and probably located in another place then factory designated. Try to get someone with any diagnostics tool (VCDS, VCP, OBD Eleven etc.) and run a scan to get Bluetooth module info.

@pab567Thank you. I actually have an Icarsoft scanner.

 

The only code I have under "Telephone" is 00446, which I understand to be a voltage issue.

The question is what is your Telephone (Bluetooth) module part number...

@pab567 That is a good question. I have looked everywhere ( under both seats, in dash behind head unit, near dash fuse box, glove box) and can't find any Bluetooth module.

 

Are you saying a VCDS scan will list a Bluetooth module part number?

Yes

The standard place is under the driver’s seat, attached to a metal bracket screwed to the floor. There’s a plastic cover over it that slides off.

 

My Bluetooth module was missing, so I bought one from eBay. It was a five minute job to get everything working. However, my symptoms were slightly different, in that I had no Bluetooth functionality at all - no phone or audio.

Thank you @pab567 I will look into that and respond soon.

@Dr_Mike_Oxgreen Thank you. Unfortunately, I have nothing under the seats, other than the amp sitting under the passenger seat.
