IPhone 5
« on: 14 April 2013, 15:33 »
Does anyone know if we will be getting a cable to connect the iPhone 5 to our new GTIs?

This is a very good question. I remember with the mk 6 & the iPhone 4 my dealer gave me the lead on the day I picked the car up, hopefully this will happen again! I remember I had to request it though, will do the same nearer delivery day.

It would be so handy for charging and music play back.

You'll definitely get an iPod cable, but I'll bet it will be the old 30-pin type so you'll need a 30-pin to lighting connector to plug your iPhone 5 in.  I'm using the Apple lighting connector in my partner's Cooper SD and it works a treat with the old iPod lead.

The iPhone 5 cab,e is due this month. I emailed VW UK and asked the same question and that is what I was told, so I suspect at least it'll be here by the time you get your cars?

When I bought my scirocco I got different types of leads so perhaps yes?

In the past I had both a USB and an iPhone cable supplied with the car at no extra cost.

I got this supplied as standard with my Scirocco (USB and 30 pin iPhone 3/4 cable).

Lets hope they've moved with the times and supply the new lightning connector - without having to use an adaptor!!!
