Ready to race!
So I took the plunge and purchased the Idatalink Maestro for my GTI. I replaced the stock HU with a Kenwood DMX7704s. Love the unit. My issue comes in with the factory integrated Bluetooth. I really wanted to keep the factory Bluetooth for hands free calls. I have followed all instructions and spoken to Idatalink to confirm I have it all set up correctly, but still I can only get the hands free calling to work through my kenwood not the VW Phone option. I completely lose the phone menu in the MFD. I also lose the navigation menu, but I am not concerned with that. '
The unit I am replacing is the RNS315. I have read conflicting information that this particular unit has the Bluetooth built in. If this is the case, it would make sense that I lose the VW phone hands free option. Can anyone confirm this, or possibly point out where I might have messed up? As of right now, the phone button and the voice activation button on my steering wheel are completely useless.
Like I said about navigation, I am not to worried about it. This unit doesn't have built in nav, but it does have Android auto and I will be using google maps for this. If it is possible to have this sent to the MFD that would be great, but it is not necessary.
If @phd-12v is still active, that would be super helpful as I think he works for Idatalink?
