Dension 500

[bdiamond001]

I recently had the Dension 500 installed at my local shop. The Ipod connection is great. I was told that Porshce has to enable the phone in order for the Dension to work in blue tooth mode. My dealer claims no knowlege of this. I have read many of the posts but did not see this addressed. I would appreciate any suggestions.

Don't know your MY but presume you have a 997.1...

To my knowledge, only way to get phone option is to also buy the add on Bluetooth accessory kit for Dension. This is completely separate from the OEM phone option (which is only applicable for Europe cars/phones) built in our cars... thus why your dealer probably has no idea. I don't think Porsche offered factory phone integration (aka BlueTooth) on 997s until the 997.2 in '09 (though I think it was available in peppers prior). Eric @ bumperplugs.com is a Dension distributor and can provide you w/ the accessory and more info as you need.

Good luck :)

I also bought the blue tooth link. After striking out at my dealer, I called another dealer. He said no problrm we do them all the time. After the 10minute enabling of my phone module, he invited me into service area so that they could pair my phone.

I recently got an 08 TT. I have the telephone module on mine but it requires a separate SIM card. I also have the steering wheel controls for telephone, but I haven't been using it. Is there a way to tie the bluetooth into the telephone module?
