Method for connecting a phone to Volkswagen Passat via Bluetooth: 1. Before connecting your phone, first turn on the car's Bluetooth via the central control screen; 2. Set the car's Bluetooth to be discoverable by nearby devices, then turn on your phone's Bluetooth; 3. Set your phone's Bluetooth to be discoverable by nearby devices as well, then pair and connect. The U.S. version of the new Passat features noticeable changes in appearance compared to the current model, including added muscular lines on the engine hood, a mesh-patterned front grille, and adjusted internal structure of the headlight assembly with added light strip design. Additionally, the front bumper style has been updated. At the rear, the U.S. version of the new Passat has an adjusted internal structure for the taillight assembly, along with added chrome trim and reflectors on the rear bumper. In terms of powertrain, the U.S. version of the new Passat will retain the current model's powertrain system, including three different engines, with the top trim model equipped with a 3.6L V6 engine delivering a maximum output of 280 horsepower.
I remember the first time I connected Bluetooth to my Passat, I was afraid of making mistakes. Actually, it's quite simple: first, start the car and sit in the driver's seat without moving. Then look at the large screen on the center console, tap the settings icon, find the Bluetooth option and turn it on to make the car discoverable. Next, take your phone, go to settings, turn on Bluetooth, and scan for devices. When your phone name appears on the screen, tap it to pair. Sometimes a password box pops up, just enter 0000 or 1234. Once connected, playing music or taking calls in the car becomes convenient, and you can also set it to auto-connect to avoid repeating the process every time. I recommend trying this in a parking lot so you won’t be distracted while driving—safety first. If it fails multiple times, it might be due to your phone’s Bluetooth being occupied; turn it off and restart before trying again. I’ve used this method for years, perfect for daily commutes with some background music.
