Just Saying Hello

Post by Paci Maginness »

Hi folks, just saying hello. I previously owned an older (2005) Passat that I had to sell years ago to trade down to a small engine car and assist my son (firstly) to get insurance and then my daughter after him when she also passed her test. However, they are experienced drivers these days and after owning a 3 series BMW for the last few years, I have decided to return to VW and since just before Christmas, I am now the proud owner of a 2016 Passat SE Business 2.0 TDI BMT. Its a lot more refined than my previous Passat but alas Android Auto hasn't been configured so I'll be digging into this forum to look for advice and pointers to get this set up as I really enjoyed it in my Bimmer. Needless to say, I'd prefer not to have to pay VW to do it as the price will be typically extortionate. So thanks for adding me as I know car forums can save me a lot of money by their invaluable advice and experience and whilst I'm no mechanic, I have a decent toolkit and I'm not afraid to have a go at basic stuff.

I'm from Newry, Co. Down btw.
