#23 of 32 Re: Bluetooth function on VW Passat 2008 "Komfort" [rv65] by passatgal25 Dec 11, 2008 (6:57 pm)
Replying to: rv65 (Dec 05, 2008 1:20 am) Thank you for your help, I am not technical nor do I know much about cars! Should I ask my dealer about this new Skoda kit that is available in the US - would this be better than the Volk-l? Replies to this message: rv65 (Dec 12, 2008 12:54 am)

Replying to: passatgal25 (Dec 11, 2008 6:57 pm) There is a US part number on 1 revision of this unit but it's not for sale right now. It's listed in the ETKA. The ETKA is the VW parts databse. Yes it does have more functionality. There is a voice dialing system where you can call people by voice. It has full English support. You can use voice tags like Call so on and so forth. It does need programming which reassigns the mute button to voice dial. It also has MFD integration which you can access your phonebook right in the MFD. For those with the new RNS-510 which is the all new Navigation system for 2009 you get integration via touch screen. It works just fine without a nav system. Everything is integrated in the MFD. The guy in the UK is selling the parts as a kit. You could find 1Z0 035 729 A but that might just include the module. You would have to buy the harness, and all the other required things. Hope this helps.
#25 of 32 Skoda kit and Dealer by rv65 Dec 30, 2008 (2:37 pm)
I think a dealer can install the Skoda unit. Installation wise it's similar to the VolkL kit which means it can be done at a dealer. A car stereo shop could but then you would need VCDS to program the unit. Dealers have VAS the official tool that runs on their tablet. VCDS is a 3rd party consumer diagnostic software that runs on a laptop or a PC with Windows.
#26 of 32 Bluetooth by rv65 Jan 09, 2009 (11:27 pm)
passatgal25,   A factory bluetooth system has been released. Cars made after CW 45 will get a factory bluetooth system. CW is Calendar Week. It will have MFD integration and it will integrate with the new RNS-510 navigation system. VW has made a revision to the RNS-510 that has the Mute button replaced with Phone. Phone will enable a touch screen menu. Mute is also the Phone button on the older RNS-510's if this unit were to be installed. It will have bluetooth audio streaming and all that jazz. Finally VW is going to make it available but it will be an expensive retrofit.
#27 of 32 US Skoda unit is avaliable by rv65 Jan 28, 2009 (2:16 pm)
Worldimpex.com now sells the USA Skoda module for $554.64. For CC owners use 1K8 035 730 B which is also the same price. Part number for the US Skoda module is 1Z0 035 729 A. Both units are the same price. No word if it's a kit. Should provide better integration than the volk-L but who knows.
#28 of 32 Don't use 1K8 035 730 B by rv65 Mar 16, 2009 (9:05 am)
Looks like 1K8 035 730 B is used by the Volk-L kit.   Here are the recommended parts   1Z0 035 729 A 1Z0 035 729 B   The A revision kit is for White dot display cars which is the Passat CC. For the CC you must use the A revision or else it won't display right. The B version is for the red dot display cars which includes the regular passat.

Had dealer install one in my 06 VR6 4Motion Pack #2 and it works super. Check out the list of compatible cell phones prior to purchase and you'll be fine. Nothing better than to be able to say who or to just do a voice activated dial by number. It handshakes and uses the address list within your cell. Don't have to take my eyes off of the traffic or stick an earpiece in my ear. Took them longer than it should of - but it's a good product and it's OEM.

Replying to: rv65 (Mar 16, 2009 9:05 am) I just purchased a 2009 Komfort Passat the MFD in dash is white so I would get the Skoda A kit is that correct? I keep seeing everywhere that it is for the CC not the Passat B6

Replying to: 2006vr6 (Apr 19, 2009 1:40 pm) Which part did you actually install? Is your car a CC or Passatt? Does it matter? Also, which dealer did you take the car to? I would like to get the Skoda BT kit installed in my CC. Thanks!
#32 of 32 Bluetooth and steering wheel controls by floucka Sep 01, 2009 (9:02 am)
We recently purchased a 2009 Passat wagon and with some help from the dealer figured out how to make calls using factory installed Bluetooth capability.   We have not been able to use the steering wheel controls or access the Phone menu through the MFD. We can access the main Phone menu but cannot scroll through the options. The phone controls on the steering wheel simply do not work. Any suggestions? Thanks.
