Review on 🎧 Airdual Bluetooth 5.0 Adapter for Audi MMI 3G AMI Music Interface, Symphony, Concert, VW MDI, Mercedes Media Interface by John Destruction

Revainrating 2 out of 5

(not working) good for a 2010 VW EOS

Edit: (2 stars) It worked really well on start up (when it was originally plugged in and synced) but when it came back to the car the next morning it stayed it stuck in "initialization" mode and didn't work. Something like this should work just fine - as does the vintage iPod I'm trying to replace (which I might just be growing old with). As mentioned, the connector doesn't pull out easily (I needed pliers to remove it), so disconnecting and reconnecting isn't a viable solution. If I played around with it for 5 minutes every time I got in the car, maybe it could work, but it's not realistic. I'll try the one that plugs into the 30 pin adapter (fingers crossed), otherwise I just use a 3.5mm Lightning to AUX cable. that's for only $8. (4 stars) This worked immediately on my 2010 VW EOS. It has two modes: Easy and Advanced. It defaults to basic, connects and plays instantly. If you follow the instructions, the advanced mode is also quite functional with some additional benefits when using Apple Music. However, the plug head itself isn't as well constructed as the original, and it's quite difficult to get it in the socket, let alone out. In fact, I'm not sure I can pull it out effectively without breaking the original attachment point, so I'm hoping, that it continues to work properly. It would be a better decision/purchase to connect a nugget to the original cable's 30-pin connector. It defaults to basic, connects and plays instantly.
