this is what i have
IMG 0396
but i get incoming calls information on the screen
if anyone could tell me where i,m going wrong or suggest what i try next before my head explodes :banghead:

please
 
Looks like the RNS-E not coded correctly try 0xxx7xx. x = what ever your current coding is just change the third to end digit to 7

One final thing came to mind what version of bluetooth module to you have, if it's any of the following you will also get that screen regardless of the coding on the RNS-E or bluetooth, only slution to this would be to buy a newer version of the BT module.

Below are the versions that don't fully work with the RNS-E
8P0 862 335 A
8P0 862 335 D
8P0 862 335 E

i have the oem nokia phone cradle in the armrest will check the numbers in the morning
not sure where to look is this on the module or do i look elsewhere?
i,m pretty sure i coded the rns-e as you have said with the 7xxx but will check this aswell
thanks guy,s
any other suggestion i can check in the morning?
 
To get the part number just use VCDS, as shown in the picture below. As you have a B7 you should have the correct module, but could have been replaced at some point by someone and an older module fitted, but I think it's more likely a coding issue. Also post the soft coding of your BT module.

I think you're getting mixed up between the coding for the RNS-E and the phone module.

The phone module needs to be coded 011822, see Audi A3 (8P) Telephone Preparation - Ross-Tech Wiki

And the RNS-E needs to be coded 030x7xx, see Audi Radio/Navigation System (RNS-E) - Ross-Tech Wiki

Check/correct both of those, reset the RNS-E (by pressing and holding RADIO and SETUP until it resets), then clear any fault codes in both the RNS-E and the phone module.

Remember also that you can only pair a new phone for a few minutes after the ignition has been turned on.

ok guys
will try the codes and then start searching for a module

was hopeing not to have to spend anymore for this mod thing is it all works but the phone book i can still speech dial,handsfree,answer call all seems to work!
so very frustrating (can feel another vodka day coming :sadlike:)

anyway thanks for the advice & help petrol Dave, b5nut and anyone else

Code the BT module, code the RNS-E, clear the fault codes on both, and restart the RNS-E.

Then turn the ignition off and back on, and pair your phone with the BT.
 
Dont want to **** on your firework fella, but K modules are known to have issues, so be warned.

no no :keule:not again this really is turning into a nightmare

nigel i got the module for £43.00 would you take a chance on it or would you opt out and go for a different module

are they all faulty? or is it a batch? is there a way of knowing ie a serial number or a batch number?

really beginning to wish i left the single din concert radio in just aint worth the aggro

thanks for the advice anyway nigel
 
Hey for £43 as a kit its worthwhile, you can always goto audi & get them to upgrade firmware, but thats going to cost probably an hour, I would of bought the latest version in the beginning, then you wouldnt potentially have further issues.

Just test it mate as you may find its ok, but K is known to have firmware issues.
 
For £40 it's worth a punt, just stick it in and use it. If you want a new module it's going to set you back at least £200 so if your K works and you pay for a firmware update as nigal say's your still not doing bad. Another option is to put it back on the ebay and buy another module, but I would just use one you have.
 
ok chaps

installed the bluetooth module today

got the bluetooth paired, no sim message now gone and strength signels on the screen

but unable to sync contacts from my iphone 3gs and cant store anything

nothing on this screen works

IMG 0405

seem to be getting closer but i just cant seem to crack it

can you guys suggest what i do next?
 
Its comfort coded as those menu's are there, have you reset the rns-e & also what coding is in rns-e & the bt module now.

Could be one of two things:
- It takes a LONG time to sync contacts initially, try checking again after a long drive (over half an hour).
- The K version module may not be 100% compatible with an iPhone 3GS.
 
audi upgrades
thanks nigel & dave

nigel yes you where correct i think i,ve coded it correctly this time

as i now have phonebook and missed and recieved call ect

my codes are telephone is 0011822

and the rns-e is 0301715

but for some reason it will not let me store numbers

and the mode button will not work

so i seem to be getting closer the good thing is i,m learning about using vag-com i think!
 
Where I never usually disagree with PD :) I've never seen a contact list take 30 mins, then again if you sync your facebook friends with contacts list, you never know lol.

Anyway, make sure the bus is coded in adaptation channel under instruments for telephone & steering wheel is coded for telephone aswell.
 
well guys i think i got there its all up and running i think!

i just got to learn how to use the thing now

only thing thats not working is the mode button, but i,m not sure that was working before i started this mod

i would like to say thank you to the guys who help me get this sorted

it would of gone in the bin if not for nigel, petrolDave, and B5NUT and anybody else who chipped in

so cheers guys i even learned a bit about vagcom also (bonus)

I watched the contact list syncing with my new iPhone 5 last month (sad I know!!!) and it took 25 minutes from pairing to the final contact appearing in the RNS-E.

OK, so I rounded up 25 minutes to 30 minutes :o.k:

What are you expecting the mode button to do?

All it will do when working correctly is switch to/from phone mode from whatever other mode the RNS-E was in - that's all.

i,m not sure bud, i have read it just takes from cd/sd to radio from but its not doing anything at the moment

Whoever wrote that got it wrong because it doesn't do that.

As I said all it does is switch back and forth between phone and whatever other mode the radio/RNS-E is in.
 
thanks mate
won,t worry about that then and thanks again for your help
