One thing that I would love to know is this. Does it say where the RNS 315 is made? Like a country of origin? Thank you so much and great video!

great vid, easy to follow — I have/bought a USB charger (for the lower, unused button areas down by ESP control) I want to install, do you have a DIY for heater control removal, and/or lower shifter trim removal?

Hi, I have bought an RNS510 unit to replace the stock radio in my mk6 Golf GT TDI. How do I know if it has a compass to remove as you indicate in your tutorial?

Hi:

I have a 2013 Tiguan with an RCD510 unit and i want to install an RNS510 and i just wander if my tiguan has bluetooth but no steering wheel controls (e.g. the bluetooth buttons are in the front dome light module), would it be able to control any functions (e.g. pairing, dailing, answering) through the RNS510 unit ?

Thanks for a very useful tutorial. Ive just started to fit an RNS510 to my Mk 6 Golf and managed to remove the old unit. The surrounding trim does need a strong pull to come free. I’m stuck with the vent panel. The 2 star screws are out but the panel refuses to come more than an inch free. Seems stuck along the top edge. Is there any other clip there? Your help would be much appreciated. David.

serginietor says:

I think so. they all seem to use up the same space, and they fit in the same place, so it’ll screw in just as the other radios. I myself am going to swap one of these (rcd 310) for an RCD510

cool you are awsome

Risa Chuman says:

Your video is awesome and super helpful! I had 3 questions…
First, how do I find out what the radio code is to my new rns 315?
second, In an unfortunate accident, i smashed the screen of my original rns 315 in my 2012 golf TDI…. :[ is it possible to just relace the screen or does the entire console have to be replaced?
Lastly, where is the best place to find a brand new or good condition rns 315?
Thank you! <3

Davy Van de Voorde says:

roddyrodrodrod says:

It will be supplied with the unit. 

skyspydude1 says:

I have the stock head unit in a MK5 GTI and was wondering if I did this swap, would I still get all the same functionality (still use iPod connector and such) and would I gain any other functionality (Bluetooth, phone button on steering wheel working?

clarkinthedark1 says:

Awesome video… out of curiosity, if my car came with the RNS 315, is an upgrade to the RNS-510 a simple swap? or more?

Essam amhimed says:

I have a radio with ISO installation for just two plugs.
And I want to install rns210, what should I do? because the plugs do not match, can you maybe help me please?

ph03n1xcanada says:

the stock radio in is actually the rcd-310. the 510 is the touchscreen w/out nav.

myturbodieseldotcom says:

It said antenna error on sirius because the car was not equipped with a sirius antenna nor was the owner interested in subscibing.

datooch says:

Why did it say antenna error and where did you get this unit?
