Anyone has a 508 SW or Saloon ?

[J B L]

Hello all,

I'll replace the Passat with another company car early next year and I am quite attracted to the 508SW.

I've read reviews online but would like to hear from real life experience if you can share them.

Car i am looking at is the Allure HDi 163 SW.

Anyone has any problem with the Bluetooth system? I've read couple of reviews where people said it didn't work very well or that the sound was appaling. any truth in there.

Anyone has the JBL audio? Does it come with a great big sub in the boot?(which I don't like much by the way)

Thanks for your views and help.

Hiya, our demo is always a 163 HDi auto. I like the car, it's not a 607 in terms of comfort but miles better than a 407.

I've never experienced a problem with the Bluetooth. My only real complaint is that I find the steering a bit light for a bigger car but I think that's just part of modern motoring. The Allure is a nice spec as I'm sure you're aware and still pretty good for the P11D.

Don't have an EGC though, stick with the larger engine.

Thanks. It will be a 2.0l engine.

There aren't many forum threads yet but some people complained about the RT6 head unit dropping calls or disconnecting the phone after 15mn.

I would agree with the poster who said that there will be an update for this by now. It is very common for glitches such as this to just require a ten minute download.
