Pairing with Bluetooth

This has just been a right chew on for me. And i've had these cars before!!

Brief reminder for anyone:

1) Insert the key into the ignition and turn the car to ACC ON. Do not start the car.
2) You now have 10 secs to scan on your phone for the Audi kit, otherwise it hides itself again
3) Pin Code by default is 1234. You can change it by going to TEL > SETTINGS > BLUETOOTH SETTINGS > PIN
4) Done!

I was going wrong as I have been using the keyless go, and for some reason it won't detect it if you do it that way!!

So there you go!

if you do it the other way ie set your phone to be visible and ask the audi bt to connect to a new phone you can do it anytime engine running etc

I just find that mine's a bit hit and miss to be honest, sometimes finds it first go, sometimes takes two or three goes to pair.

Once it's paired, it's good 'for ever' though.

I find it's best to wipe all previous Bluetooth connections and start again

ESP after trying to pair a new iPhone and the old one still is switched on in my bag

Doh that was a real blond moment!!!!

Mine pairs every time. In fact so fast I've been wondering if it detects me and my phone (should be a song lyric there) getting into the car.
Google Nexus 1. None of your Apple crapple for me

Having said that, I can't access the contacts folder which is a real pain

Thank you very much for this... god knows why you have to put the key in the ignition, but it did the trick for me.
