Hi, i currently have a GTD on order and i have the RNS310 coming with it.
I was just wondering has anybody else used this sat nav system and if so, what do they think of it?
By the way, this is my first post and i have been reading the forum a lot lately and i find it really helpful!
Thanks,
Chris

Wellcome to the forum mate!! Not sure about the rns310, but I have the 510 and its excllent. Can you not change to the 510? :cool: You have chosen a top motor by the way!!
-
Hey steve thanks for the reply!
How do you find the GTD?
Nope i cant change to the RCD510, too late now and i wanted a sat nav system but i thought the RNS510 was a bit too expensive!!
Car was ordered in mid february and i have been given week 23 build so not long to wait now!!!

That's the same build week as my GTI. I've been told by my dealer that my new car is going to come with the rear LED Lights. Do you know or can you confirm if this is the same with your car.
-
Yeah, i have been told also that my car will come with LED's, Hill hold, and multi function steering wheel as standard. I'm delighted about it!!
Here in Ireland the Multi function steering wheel wasn't standard until these changes!!
-
How do you find the GTD?
Well I came from an ED30 to the GTD and lets just say there are no regreats at all, I love the motor. It took a bit of getting use to, I did 300 miles at the weekend cost me 35 quid diesel ed30 would have been about 80. The one I would recomend is getting the DSG box it just complements the car. What spec have you orderd? :cool:
-
Steve,
I have ordered White, 3 door, parking sensors front and rear, privacy glass, multifunction steering wheel, RNS310 and because the car is being built week 23 it is also coming with Hill hold function and rear LED lights.
I was going to order leather but i perfered the look of the cloth.

Im getting it in manual, forgot to add that!

There are problems with the gear box on the gtd, other guys on the forum are experancing problems with the gear box?
This may not be the Case with your order!! :cool:

Ajmoir36 he's having problems with his gear box, You can change the spec it's not to late?

I don't think we get the choice of an RNS310?
I've seen it in German photos - but never the UK ones.

Thats dealer fit though...
The OP says his GTD is on order and coming with an RCD310.

I see your point. You are right there is no mention of it on the VW website for speccing it on the car as a factory fit!
He has probably got his wires crossed and is having it as a dealer fit option. :rolleyes:

What about the GTI?
-
I havent tested a GTI or anything but that was my first choice car to get but with the price of petrol here in ireand (134.9 cpl) i think that it would just be too expensive to run so i decided to go with the GTD because i would get more mgp with comparable performance to the GTI.

The GTD is a brilliant car , Its better than the gti by far , bring on the comments from the GTI boys!! :grin:

Excellent decision. Even if the leather had been a no-cost option, I'd still have got the cloth :cool:

Do I detect gratuitous provocation here? :wink: The GTI has crap fuel economy and range (I barely get 400 miles between fill-ups), but I do feel slightly superior whenever I go past a GTD :smiley:

And i would presume 'R' drivers feel slightly superior when they drive past a GTI!!!!

Haha im just waiting for a few nasty comments from the GTI lads!!!
-

Of course, that's the natural pecking order. When I'm in the GTI and get overtaken by an Aston Martin, or a Bentley, I feel like a commoner :grin:

Yeah definetly, i currently have a MK5 GT Sport, 3 door, white and i love the colour. I could'nt possible have changed colour when getting the GTD!!

Boys, boys or should I say now, now ladies. :laugh:
GTi crap range and economy.
R even crappier than above.
GTD excellent range and economy.
I don't have a superiority complex or an inferiority one.
If you like sticking a bloody expensive nozzle in your pipe regularly, then go for the first two.
For sensible fun, go for the GTD + DSG. I have driven one and it is superb. :smiley:

How did you get round the ECU, also what about your warrenty, i know you work for VW but whats your views on remapping?? :wink:

Its all about who you know really, I am very good friends with the warranty guy in our dealership we play golf alot together. Would I get it done if I didnt know him probably not unless I knew my dealer very well and trusted them. You have just got to trust the product you have bought will be fine which out of all the people with mk6's out there or on here how many engine related issues have there been?
