Nick Baines Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 Hi all, I've owned my 2011 WRX STI for just over a week now. The previous owner had the original head unit removed from the car and orderd (the one pictured) from subaru as a replacement. Is this unit a Genuine Subaru unit? The reason I ask is beacuse it doens't seem to work properly with the steering wheel controls, it also doesnt seem to work with the USB port or Aux socket. Could it just be a fitting problem? I'm also shocked that this unit also doesn't seem to have Bluetooth. Can anyone offer any advice if this is correct.... Thanks Nick
Gambit Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 It is a genuine one for the 08 09 years, So hopefully just a wiring issue.
Nick Baines Posted February 23, 2016 Author Posted February 23, 2016 @Gambit should it have Bluetooth mate?
salsa-king Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 it's a the Kenwood Head unit out the 330s car. No Bluetooth on it.. and should work perfectly with the steeringwheel controls. 1

Gambit Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 I'm going to say it should if it's built in to the unit

I'f i plug my Mp4 in via the AV sockets It plays on the screen/sound but you can't control the MP4 from the steering wheel or the head unit of course. I know ppl burned music to DVD's and then they can play on the head unit and have the steering wheel controls working.
