How to get talksport via dab radio

Post by pjayy »

I have seen a picture of talksport on dab on a scirocco on google.

I have a 64 plate model, and if I go to radio - band - dablist, I can't find talksport on the list

So I'm wondering how do I scan the radio to find a specific station

Quick edit I googled my owners maunal for my car and it says I have rcd310 model and in the pictures Volkswagen show it says nothing about dab listing so why do I have dab stations ?

Back in 2011 when I ordered my car DAB was a relatively cheap option so was a no brained for me to add it. I have the RCD510 DAB in my car.

Within DAB there are different "channels" which give different station lists therefore change channels and you'll find Talksport somewhere.

Are you sure it's an RCD310 and not an RCD510, the latter having the integrated 6CD changer?

Managed to find it. Went into dab list and. You have national, Birmingham and BBC, I was in BBC all along


I believe it has the 6cd never had a look though Becuase I'll never use it

My owners manual says rds310, and the pictures don't show the dab and under dab it says needs a model with dab, so either the car has had the upgrade or the manual is wrong

If it has the integrated 6 CD changer it's definitely the RCD510 so the manual must be wrong.

Glad you got it sorted anyway.
