discover media

I upgraded recently to this newer version which has WLAN. And the app button so assumed it had wireless CarPlay, IT DOESNT So can anyone explain what the wlan is for?

I've recently changed phones and my previous phone charged albeit slowly when using Android Auto and GPS. New phone actually loses power when plugged in. I think the head unit can only supply around 500ma which seems is not enough to run AA, GPS and charge. Has anyone else seen this and come up...

Help!! All of a sudden my Discover Media system no longer tracks my position. When I first switched on it finds my location fine but then never moves. Tried holding down the power button for 10 seconds and resetting the unit but it doesn't solve the problem.

Hi, My 2019 Caravelle seems to be stuck in a loop trying to update the software. The above results in the head unit resetting itself (usually) 3 times every time you start the van. The head unit powers off for around 10 seconds, then reboots, then thinks about connecting (or not) to Andriod...

Howdy all, I've got a discovery media headunit part number 5C0035680G it's a high spec OEM unit. I bought it for nearly 700 bones refurbished with a new digitiser. I had it in my T6 for a few months but it has now gone into a boot loop fault. Some days it would work as normal for a while then...

Evening, my upgrade is now complete so anyone interested in my Discover Media system just removed from my 2021 T6.1 Highline, perfect working order it was a £1400 option, Apple CarPlay, Navigation etc etc, only selling as I’ve upgraded to Alpine Halo. £600 or open to offers, must go, I’m in Somerset

Hey everyone. Does anyone know if the discover media internal amp can be replaced? Blown mine after an emergency jump start. Sad

Good evening. I've purchased a volkswagen reverse camera input interface harness. I have a discover media radio. I'm wanting to add a reverse camera to the radio. The description for the harness says: Adapter harness to add a reverse camera to an original volkswagen transporter T6...

Evening all, just wondering if there is any interest in this, I’m having an upgrade at Absolut5 Audio in July and the Discovery Media system with Sat Nav, CarPlay, streaming etc, a £1115 plus vat option, will be available end of July, it will be removed from my 2021 T6.1 Highline with just 15k...

Hi guys I had the infotainment system replaced a couple of week back under the all in warranty due to the failed touch screen issue but I've just gone to use the sat nav and it thinks I'm in northern Germany!! before i take it back to VW again... anything simple I'm missing? ta

Hi guys hope all is well. My media touch screen will freeze every time I turn the engine off and back on again. The side buttons on the media unit work as they should (radio / media / phone etc), but all the options on the touch screen just freeze. I then do a hard reset and the buttons on the...

Hi all, just returned from a 640 mile round trip to Sunderland, on the way up after a stop at services the sound has gone on my Discovery plus system, I’ve tried the press on button for a soft reset but still nothing, I can turn the radio on, see it going up when I increase the volume but...

Looking at upgrading the standard composition media to a discover media. I’ve looked at the alpines and the halos and whilst they look extremely good, I’m preferring he oem look. Reasons for upgrading, 1) wireless Apple car play 2) digital dash is on the wanted list and 3) I love the look of...

Wanted; Discover head unit or aftermarket replacement to suit 2016 T6. Must be in good condition. I'm located in the Costswolds but willing to travel to see / pick up.

Afternoon all. So, as a rainy day project I thought I'd update my radio station logos. I downloaded the latest software from VW's website onto an SD card, inserted said card into SD card slot and system tells me that there is new software on the card. So far so good, but the system seems to...

Hello, After an epic day with @Dav-Tec doing some heavy involved work on my van the only thing standing in the way of a clean sweep was a head unit seemingly not compatible with reverse camera input. Thus looking for a reasonably priced headunit to swap out for an xtrons unit. Discover media...

I know there is a post somewhere guiding you through the DIY repair of a touchscreen by adding an overlay. However this one provides a screw by screw guide with no missing bits to cause confusion. Literally just finished mine and it was a breeze.

I have a t6 2016 shuttle which has been fitted with a later discover head unit. When I did the conversion to camper I ran an aftermarket Co ax cable with single core cable from the tailgate to the back of the dash. I'm at the stage now when I'd like to install a reverse camera. It currently has...

I have just had a Kenwood DNX5190DABS 6.8” GPS CD Player fitted to my van as the touchscreen had failed on the original VW oneI I was wondering if the one which was removed is any good for spares?
