I have a 2008 Passat wagon with factory dvd nav, factory sirius, ipod dock in the glove box, dynaudio, and the factory bluetooth module. If I purchase one of the new RNS510′s is there anything other than installing and plugging in the various stuff to the back of the unit that I would need to do? Would there be any additional coding required?

@Dave,
The packages that we sell include everything needed to retrofit the unit to your Passat. You will need coding for the unit, which can he found in any of the DIY documents or on this website.
You will have to swap some wires for the ipod to work. See the FAQ section for more information.
If we can help, please let us know.
Thanks,

@Flytdiguy, OK, so there is still coding to do regardless whether I already have an existing factory nav albeit the dvd based style? Also, do my existing antennae for nav and sirius work?
Thanks!

@Dave,
Coding is not required, but highly recommended. It should be done at some point.
Your existing antenna will work fine. If you have satellite radio now, you may need the satellite extension cable to route a new line from the existing satellite module to the headunit (the RNS-510 has sirius built in) or purchase a “horse-pill” style satellite antenna and mount it under your dash.
Then, don’t forget to activate your satellite service.
Thanks,
Flytdiguy

I have a 2006 passat with no existing sat radio or nav – dealer is telling me that just for the antenna and wiring is almost 1000 bucks! Is the included antenna and antenna adapter all that is required to modify this car with no existing antennas or wiring, to make the nav unit work?
Thanks!

@Greg,
There’s a much easier and far more cost efficient way to add a GPS (and satellite radio) antenna to your 06 Passat by using the “horse-pill” style GPS antenna that we include with all our kits. Installation is a cinch under the dash with either attaching it to a metal structure piece (antenna back is magnetic) or using a piece or double sided tape. This can also be done by yourself, thus saving any labor charges the dealer would have imposed.
If we can help, please let us know.
Thanks,

Are the newest map versions included in the newest model? Or do i need to purchase those separately?

You would need to purchase those separately. We offer the version 2M and 1M maps currently.

The list of cars that this fits doesn’t seem to include 2010 Mk6 Golf/GTI? Will it work in my 2010 Golf TDI which currently has RCD510 touchscreen stereo?

H Gary,
Yes, the RNS-510 will absolutely work with your MK6 with no problem. I have since updated the original product description to reflect this.
If we can help, please let us know.
Thanks,

Have a Passat with an RCD 510. Okay I am a cheap skate so only got the base model. Does the RNS-510 allow me to use the handsfree (Bluetooth) from the steering wheel and use the head unit’s phone functionality?
