Troublesome Headunit

Hi all

I took delivery of my 2007 Leon Cupra yesterday and have been struggling with the headunit in it.

Firstly, can someone tell me if this is a standard fit Seat unit for the mk2 Leon?

It has a large touchscreen, 3 buttons on either side (Left - Radio, Media, Phone; Right - TIM, TP, Setup), and two knobs in the bottom corners. CD slot at the top with 6-cd changer, and an SD card bottom centre.

I cannot get it to pick up any radio stations well, and it doesn't recognise the station names when I manually tune it.

Also, and more pressingly, It seems to have the option for Bluetooth media, but I cannot for the life of me get it to even be seen by my phone.

The BT Media option is always greyed out and I cannot find the radio when I scan for devices on my Android phone.


Third and final issue is that the AUX in is crackly and staticky, to the point of being unusable. It gets worse if the 12v supply is in use, or if the headlights (Xenons) are switched on.

Any thoughts, pointers or advice? If I could get the bluetooth working I would be incredibly happy!

Thanks in advance

Hi and thanks for the info!

A quick google image search and it does indeed look like I have a non-DAB RCD510. The power on screen of the unit does show "Seat Sound System", so although maybe not standard fit on my car, it was standard somewhere in the Seat range. Perhaps a later year?

If I source a Bluetooth unit, is it a plug and play option? Is the wiring there and would it need coding?

Any good websites for sourcing part numbers for VAG?

Thanks!

Thanks! That would be great!
