Title: Charging iPod with MDI+RNS510..
Post by: damoegan on September 18, 2011, 01:16:15 am
Will the MDI charger the newer range of iPod's?

Need to replace my iPod nano (2nd gen) with the latest version due to the very poor sound quality of the 2nd gen....

There is an update for the MDI from VW you need to download it to a usb stick then get your usb lead in the MDI and download the update.

Look on My-GTI-com for the update of the MDI

Damoegan may have the old update which is stopping the Iphone charging, I do know a few in the past who have had this problem.
