  • Quick Run-Through Of What Is Involved When Activating Genuine App Connect With License & ODIS On The VW Transporter T6.
    So first up, this isn't a How-To but just more to show what is involved when a VAG Approved Workshop (Like Us) Activate Using ODIS and Genuine License the VW App-Connect System.
    With this upgrade you need to have either the Discover Media or Discover Nav System (With or Without APP Button). As long as you can see it on screen and it says the below, we can activate it. This is done with the Genuine VW Diagnostics System (ODIS)
    "App-Connect" - You can activate the function by means of an activation key. Please consult your dealer.
    On the Transporter T6 you need to ensure a few other things:
    1 - You have the correct USB Port which has the Part Number 5Q0035726E. Typically the USB/Aux Combo is correct and will always have a Green Connector at the rear.
    2 - Have either of the following PR-Codes:
    • 7UP - NAV Navigation system MIB2 Standard PQ (EU/ROW)
    • I7A - RAO MIB2 Standard PQ radio Plus EU/ROW
    This upgrade is suitable for other vehicles so if you're interested comment below or get in touch with us on the link below:

    Great upload and helped me understand why my head unit displayed "contact dealer" when trying to open Apple Car Play on a 2018 Passat. But as your comment - This is the 21st centry and VW should not be charging customers £250 for some lines of code which should already be there from factory? It's just a shameless rip-off retro fit extra VW owners have to pay dealers to make the head unit fully function. Most other car makers don't do this 🤓

    Hi, today I paid a fortune for VW to activate app connect on my discovery media head unit in my T6. After a 3 hour wait while this work was being done ( after being told it’s a 30min job ) I was told the install had been unsuccessful ! I was told a software update was needed at an additional cost of £60 which would hopefully fix the issue… it didn’t! I wasn’t charged the £60 due to failure of the installation. I can now see app connect on the screen but unable to use it. When I select app connect I’m asked to select a device which isn’t possible ? When I plug my iPhone into the usb it says ‘device not supported’. My phone is capable of charging using this usb but doesn’t seem to sync with the head unit ?? I was told by VW that I would have to rebook my van in for a day for further investigation works and possibly a new usb socket installed at my cost. Is there anything you can advise as to why this is happening or if you have seen this problem before and know how to fix it ? I have used genuine iPhone cable to connect as well as other aftermarket cables with no success… Any help would be much appreciated. Cheers Dan

    I factory reset my car to try and get Bluetooth to work and now its telling me I need a new activation key to contact my dealer. They are trying to charge me 175 an hour. is this a normal thing? I feel like when you spent 30- 40 thousand you shouldn't have to pay if you reset your car!

    • @AdvancedInCarTechnologies

      If your vehicle is out of warranty then most dealerships will have certain costs per hour for their labour. If your vehicle came with App Connect from factory it can simply be restored via Online Connection. If it was activated after the car was delivered and activated correctly online via ODIS and activation document again it will be restored. IF however this was done by a 3rd party who have "Hacked" the vehicle to give it App Connect then this will be lost and VW Will not restore it.

      The license is a one use item that gets assigned to the chassis number of the vehicle. Once it’s applied it can’t be transferred.

    My 2017 Volkswagen Golf suddenly disconnected from app-connect and I get the app-connect message saying I need to buy an activation key from my dealer. But when i went to see them they had no idea what the problem was or what an activation key even was.... Does anyone know why my app-connect would suddenly disconnect and what I could do to get a new activation key or fix this issue? Thank you!

    • @AdvancedInCarTechnologies
      @AdvancedInCarTechnologies  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      If the vehicle had the Official Activation with a licence it's stored online with VW so if the vehicle is plugged in at a Dealer it knows it has App-Connect and would automatically reactivate it.
      To me it sounds like you've encountered the situation of where somebody at some point has hacked the system to give it CarPlay. AS this wasn't done via Genuine means with an official licence it can be lost and not recovered.

      Because in the UK you are not allowed to use or touch your phone whilst driving. This allows you to have CarPlay apps on your main screen that links to your vehicle.
