MK3 (06) standard CD player / MP3 compatibility
Discussion
Bit of niche question and have tried various searches...
I have a very nice standard Mk3 2006 Mk5 with most of the toys. The head unit is the standard single CD player with MP3 marked on the unit. The manual is quiet badly written... and I can't for the life of me get the MP3s to read from a burned CD.
Have tried (all from a Mac) various burn settings, putting MP3s in folders, etc.
Can anyone give me some tips as to the right settings?
Many thanks

I've got exactly the same problem. I have read on line that some cars have mislabeled units fitted, but haven't been able to find a clear answer on how to identify if this is really the case or if I've just burned the disc incorrectly.
