Think of the numerous auto-related modifications, and the ubiquitous addition of a sound system is definitely one that pops up almost immediately. With such importance placed on in-car entertainment these days, Volkswagen is offering its Plug and Play sound system as an option on a number of its models.
Available on the Polo, Beetle, Jetta, Golf Mk6 and Mk7 along with the Scirocco, the system bears no resemblance to an afterthought as it boasts a quick, flush installation setup in the spare wheel well (wonder what happens to the spare?).
Kit comprises an integrated digital sound processor and a “high-performance” subwoofer. The Volkswagen Plug and Play sound system features a total of five channels – one for the subwoofer and four for the speakers – and the aforementioned digital sound processing capability to handle bass, treble, balance and fader criteria. The entire package comes with the necessary wiring harnesses, assembly materials and instructions.
An additional package is also available for the Volkswagen up!, with two variations to cater for the different trim lines of said model. Customers need not worry about fitment issues, as the company assures that each order is “individually matched” to the respective vehicle at all authorised dealerships.
Unfortunately, a check with Volkswagen Malaysia has revealed that the option isn’t available here for the time being, but we’ll be sure to run an update if the system becomes available.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
But the system still uses stock speakers to drive the mid range and treble…hmmm not so effective IMHO since those el-cheapo speakers that come with our cars can only do so much. Plus what about insulation? The more louder and better the sound gets, there’s gonna be vibrations felt in the car and surely outside noise will effect the quality if your volume is lowered.
Why do all this and that but DSG also cannot solve VGM?
Repair your DSG first. Everyday got more than 10 cases of DSG breaking down according to the SC I go to. And that is just 1 SC in Klang Valley. Whatmore nationwide?
Hey dude,please read the title properly. here we talk about the sound system rather than gearbox.
Update yourself please, VW already fixed all DSG issues by changing the gearbox oil with mineral-based oil. Recently, did you see any VW break down due to DSG issue?
Hey, bro~ don’t give people shot! if you don’t have any proof to say that the DSG issues are still continuing happen, please stop saying that! All the DSG issues have been solved and bro please see back the title that was saying about Volkswagen Plug and Play sound system!
Every car manufacturers also have their own technical issues, not only VW.
Well.. at least VW had took initiative to improve their after sales service as well as product quality which is a good move for VW.
