discover media

My Bluetooth connection has gone wonky! Every time my phone connects it says I have a call active and yet the phone isn’t calling anyone?!? It stops me turning off the head unit, putting radio on or accessing my music! I have disconnected, reconnected and re paired and same issue. It’s...

Background I was looking at how I could use the Discover Media navigation system as backup for my preferred Google maps navigation (via App Connect) for an upcoming trip to Morocco later in the year. Morocco is included in the 'Non-European Countries – Bundle 3' available from the VW maps...

Bin trying to update the discovery media via the VW discovercare site. Keep getting to the end of downloading and then ‘checksum’ error:mad: Happened several times - and it’s a long download. Tried a new SD card but got the same results. Any ideas??

Hi everyone's it possible on the head unit screen to be able to have the big clock with hands showing when its turned off ?Thanks in advance.

I have a 2017 T6 with the Discover Media head unit. I originally thought the satnav was rubbish as I couldnt search for postcodes via "new destination" option, as it seemd to not accept more than 4 characters. After some initial hatred of the unit, I then read on a blog that you have to dig...

This worked fantastic on my Merc, and when I saw the option on the T6 I was thrilled, I prefure to listetern to everything in DAB where possible, mainly BBC Essex. however, in the odd place where the is no DAB signal but a perfectly strong FM signal isn't the radio suppose to switch from DAB to...

Has anybody had experience when trying to activate App Connect ,Car Play or Voice control in the discover media module. It refers me to the dealer for an activation code. On Contacting the dealer they didn't seem to understand what I was asking for and was not forthcoming with any...

Why is there no rear audio output on the bsck of my discovery media system? I.need to wire some rear speakers but have no output! Any ideas??

Just wondering if the more technically minded of you might know if there is an advantage to using something like the VW car stick as opposed to the usual gadget that just plugs into your 12v power as supplied by all the big service providers (based on HUAWEI Balong B720). As the car stick plugs...

Hi guys, just picked up my new T6 highline with the stereo fitted with app connect. I thought this would be a great feature having my phone in my car but I now realise it has to be plugged into the USB which is on the other side of the van??? I've had the stereo out today to see if had a simple...

Hi all, Has anyone else had a problem with their SatNav on their T6? Our has a close proximity sensor which shows a few extra buttons if you swipe your hand near the screen but for some reason, its stopped working. I have gone into setting and clicked the function but its still not working...

I got a amp and sub + all the wires I need to connect RCA+blue wire into head unit but can't see where any of this would fit??? iv got a little thing with some wires on in where the rca wires would go but that had wires that come out of it and would no where to put that either?? can anyone help...

Does anyone use the DiscoverCare software for map updates? I can't seem to get it to run correctly. As it can't seem to connect to it's own servers, regardless of where i try and run it from.

I've got the Discover Media unit in my T6 Caravelle, with everything but NAV. Part number is 5K7035200E. I'm considering buying a unit with Navigation, that also has the current functions, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Cam. Is it worth doing? I know there are 3rd party units available, but i'd like...

Guy's, Just taken delivery of my first VW Transporter, loving it so far, but with the discovery nav system there is a spare SD slot and the USB socket in the glovebox. Has anyone managed to play movies/films off of either the SD2 slot or the USB port in the glove box?? Seems nuts to have...

I appreciate this is not ground-breaking and many will have already sussed this but I use my iPhone as a Nav in my van and at times I like to listen to the verbal directions. When you select 'media' on the head unit you lose the ability to continue listening to the radio if your bluetooth is...

Hi, I have just received my spanking new T6 Kombi :) Very happy with everything, except that the comfort dash only came with a USB for the CarPlay in the glove box, which means every time I jump in the van I have to lean right over to plug my phone in. Is it possible to retrofit a second USB...

After bit of advice and possibly help please. I own a Highline LWB PV and would love to upgrade my standard headhunt to discover media unit. I was thinking to get one of eBay and then get it coded to my van (should I need to) and unlock connect app as well as voice dial button on the steering...
