How to connect Bluetooth VW - Volkswagen Passat and Touareg

How to Connect Bluetooth VW Passat and Touareg
Our lifestyles have increasingly become more and more busy. You are not the only one talking on the telephone while driving, as it helps us better make use of our driving time.  That said, handling your phone while driving is dangerous and in many places, it is illegal.  Fortunately, many Volkswagen models are equipped with Bluetooth technology allowing you to connect your phone to your car wirelessly.  Make calls, answer calls and listen to the music on your mobile phone all through your cars stereo system and microphone with the wireless bluetooth technology.  There are two main ways to connect your phone to your VW.  Active and Passive connections are available depending on your phone model.


Active connections - initiated by your Volkswagen radio system.  
  1. Set Bluetooth to “On” in your Phone Settings and make phone “Discoverable” or “Visible” by other devices.  (Typically it makes your phone available to be discovered for a minute)
  2. Turn on electrical system to car or start car
  3. Turn Radio System power to “On” (only necessary if radio is off)
  4. To active Bluetooth pairing, touch “Phone Button” on left side of VW steering wheel
  5. Using steering wheel “Selection Buttons” on right hand side of steering wheel, select “Phone Search”
  6. When Phone is discovered, you’ll see it displayed under "Device List".  
  7. Navigate to your phone name or model using right hand steering wheel buttons and select your phone.
  8. Enter PIN number displayed into your mobile phone.  Typically, you’ll check notifications within your phone to find the “VW would like to connect to your Phone” or something of the sort.  Once selected, you’ll be prompted to input your passcode.  (often 0000 or 1234 etc…)  Be sure to confirm passcode on both devices.
Passive connections - initiated by your phone

  1. Set Bluetooth to “On” in your Phone Settings and make phone “Discoverable” or “Visible” by other devices.  (Typically it makes your phone available to be discovered for a minute)
  2. Turn on electrical system to car or start car
  3. Turn Radio System power to “On” (only necessary if radio is off)
  4. Press “Phone Button” on radio system
  5. Press “Setup Button”
  6. Select “Bluetooth Settings” on touchscreen
  7. Select “set BT visibility”
  8. Search for “Bluetooth audio accessories” on your phone
  9. Accept pairing request from VW Phone request
  10. Confirm pairing on your phone by entering the PIN provided in the touchscreen area into your phone system.  Confirm on both devices.

The entire process, regardless of which setup process you use, shouldn't take more than five minutes from start to finish. When you've done it before, you'll execute the entire process in less than three minutes. If you have any questions or concerns related to your VW Bluetooth connectivity, please feel free to contact Vorderman Volkswagen and ask to speak to one of our Master Certified VW Sales and Leasing Consultants.

Waterfest Moves to Atco Dragway

Waterfest 24 will be held at Atco Dragway, in Atco, New Jersey. The summer event will take place at its new venue on July 21 and 22. Long held in Englishtown, New Jersey, the festival has been such a large part of the VW scene that the latest iteration of the Golf even comes with optional “Englishtown” wheels . The new venue, however, is an NHRA drag track a scant 52 miles southwest of Englishtown. The ¼ mile drag track opened in 1960, which makes it the oldest drag strip in New Jersey. The announcement came today on a social media post that announced the new location. Waterfest is North America’s largest VW/Audi show. As many 20,000 people show up for the annual show, making the second largest show in the world—with Worthersee being number one. 2018 will be Waterfest’s 24 th year in existence.

Macau Gets Messy with 16-Car Pileup

The Macau Grand Prix is always good for an accident or two or 16— you may remember Audi’s race ending crash last year —and this year’s event didn’t disappoint. It didn’t take long for things to get messy on the tight road circuit. On the opening lap of the qualifying race a 16-car pileup caused the race to be suspended. Things kicked off when Daniel Juncadella hit a wall on the exit of Police bend, one of the tightest parts of the already tight circuit. The following car of Raffaele Marciello was able to avoid the carnage, but Laurens Vanthoor, who was in the upside-down Audi that ended the race last year, could not avoid Juncadella and together they blocked up the road pretty much completely. “I couldn’t see him [Juncadella] at first. Then I saw the car standing still,” Vanthoor told Motorsport. “I tried to brake but it was just understeering and I couldn’t do anything. There’s room for one car there and you’re blind.” Fourteen more cars would eventually crash into the corner c

The First of its Kind: Integrated Engineering Releases Highly-Anticipated IE450T MK6 Golf R Turbo Kit

After two long years of development, the team at Integrated Engineering has finally announced the release of their IE450T kit for the MK6 Golf R. With their turbo kit bolted on right out of the box, the sport AWD hatch is transformed into a 450bhp monster, with hardly any noticeable increase in spool time. In fact, 435 ft-lbs of torque are achieved at all four wheels, at a mere 3300rpm! By now you are probably asking yourself how this is even possible on a 2.0L engine that made nearly half that power from the factory. By employing true twin-scroll technology into the cast turbo manifold and pairing it with a state-of-the-art BorgWarner EFR turbocharger, IE was able to keep spool time at a minimum and bring the fastest-spooling big turbo setup to the market. “We wanted to offer a kit that would dramatically increase the power output without making the car lose its amazing street-friendly drivability,” mentioned one of the IE engineers. We are told the IE450T leaves the car driving jus
