How to Connect Bluetooth in Old Lavida?
2 Answers
Turn on both the mobile phone Bluetooth and the car Bluetooth, and make sure they are in discoverable mode. On the mobile phone's Bluetooth interface, click "Search for Devices." The mobile phone can then search for the car Bluetooth. Select the car Bluetooth displayed on the mobile phone, click on the car Bluetooth settings to pair, and enter the correct pairing code. Once done, "Connected" will be displayed on the car Bluetooth.
Connecting Bluetooth to an old Lavida isn't actually difficult. Let me share my technical experience. First, ensure the vehicle is in ACC mode—that means turning the key to the power-on position without starting the engine. Next, locate the settings menu on the infotainment screen, select the Bluetooth option, and enable discovery mode to make it visible. Then, turn on Bluetooth on your phone and scan for available devices—the old Lavida usually appears as something like "VW Bluetooth." Tap to pair. The pairing code is typically 0000 or 1234; enter it to complete the connection. If it fails to connect, common causes include an aging Bluetooth module or outdated software. Try restarting the infotainment system, turning all devices off and on again, or deleting old pairing records on your phone and rescanning. Also, remember to select the audio output source after successful pairing to play music or make calls. Ensure stable Bluetooth power by keeping the battery fully charged to avoid disconnections. Don’t get distracted while driving during the process—safety comes first. Once, while helping a friend, his infotainment froze, and we had to gently tap it with a screwdriver to reboot—just pay extra attention to details with older cars.
