RCD510 - DAB

Post by mholmes »

Hi Guys,

First post. I am currently looking at buying a 2.0 tsi and was wondering when did the RCd510 start having a DAB radio?

Thanks
Rob

Im almost certain the rcd510 only had dab as an option, it was the rns315 that came with standard dab

As above, DAB was a cost.option with the RCD510. Worth every penny IMO

I've literally just traded my remapped 11 plate 170 GT to a mate, Dab was one of the factory options I specced when I bought it.

Bought a new one on ebay (someone with a new car trading up to RNS 510) and fitted it myself. Parts for fitting cost about £80.00. The new amplifier was the most expensive part as had to go to VW for that. Worth doing though - really good reception.
