IOS 11.4 is what my phone is running. Think that’s the most current version. I’ve ran out of ideas tbh.

Might be worth trying with the Bluetooth and wifi off. Just a thought.

So just an update. Was in today tech could not get it to connect either. Going to replace the USB port and take it from there. They need the car for three days which is fine. I’ll get a C Car. If it comes back with a mark on it I’ll be raging.

On another note. Wheels - new Porsche GT3 Matt gold colour?? Tell me your thoughts?

Depends on the colour of the car. IMO matt gold wheels look good on a black car, but I don’t like them on a white car.

Sorry, not for me, but it’s good that we don’t all like the same things, otherwise life would be boring. The car’s great though, and if the wheels were powder coated gunmetal / anthracite that would be a cool combination! :cool:

There’s a current discussion thread over on vwroc.com that suggests it costs around £245 to have App Connect activated. Not all MIB2 infotainment units are App Connect compatible.

Thanks for this. I'll give my dealer a call.

I agree that early ones weren't, but our OP has a CSS - that's last gasp Mk7/MIB2 and definitely will be compatible.

Yes, OP’s should be compatible, but we don’t know if forum member greencode has a compatible infotainment unit in his R; so I was alerting him to the possibility of incompatibility when he asked how much it cost to activate App Connect.
