Faulty Infotainment System

Featured Replies

My dad has a 2015 Octavia estate. His infotainment system has developed a fault. It won’t connect to his (or anyone’s) phone via Bluetooth.

If we do either a manual delete of all paired phones or a hard reset all the old settings reappear the next to the system is booted up.

Any ideas if this is fixable or a terminal problem?

Also is there a cheap way of allowing Apple CarPlay etc… to run without visiting a main dealer (should it be repairable).

Thanks

We need to know what system you have.

I can't remember how to bring up the system info.

System information is displayed on the screen in 'settings' I think.

I recommend upgrading to a navigation unit, HW4. You can Patch IT own

With the HW2 Bolero unit you have, you can activate Smart Link, but it runs somewhat sluggishly. And you have To Open the Unit for the Patch

I have an HW4 Bolero unit at home, fully unlocked and working perfectly.

It just needs to be coded to the vehicle.

Where are you from?
