Title: RNS 510 and Bluetooth Kit
Post by: ben9790 on 21 August 2012, 22:23
hi guys,
ive got an 09 plate mk6. its got an RCD 310 and i want to upgrade it to a RNS 510 with a bluetooth kit. id prefer the RNS 510 to be one of the newer versions where you can watch DVDs while you drive and with updated maps and a bluetooth kit that works with the latest iPhone. anyone know the best place to buy this and to install it?
thanks Ben.

Hi Ben

When you buy a RNS they don't automatically play the DVD's while'st in motion...it's a mod that can be done tho...do a search and you will find out all you need to know!

Not sure where to buy, but you'll need the following:

So, not a complicated job, but you need a few bits of kit to get it all working. I may have left stuff off.

Not sure where to buy, but you'll need the following:
  • RNS510 (http://www.navizip.co.uk/new-vw-rns510-h-1t0-035-680-h--navigation-1-p.asp) (preferably with a * button)
  • Latest Bluetooth module (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-BLUETOOTH-KIT-SEAT-SKODA-MFD3-RNS-510-RNS-310-RCD-510-RNS-315-7P6-35-730-F-/280947176314?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4169c1b37a#ht_1699wt_1057) (goes under driver's seat)
  • Bluetooth module to RNS510 cable (see above)
  • Microphone cable for Bluetooth (see above)
  • GPS antenna for RNS510 (probably comes with RNS510)
  • Bluetooth antenna for module (see above)
  • Firmware 4020 (http://www.my-gti.com/3354/volkswagen-rns-510-firmware-upgrade-to-version-4020-4024-4026-4028), Maps 7.2 (http://gpsunderground.com/forum/volkswagen-seat-skoda/13389-western-europe-v8-final-official-cd-7690-a.html), DVD fix (http://www.robpol86.com/index.php/US_RNS-510_Video_In_Motion) (configured by a CD)
  • Someone with VAG-COM to tell the car you have new kit installed (search this forum for the codes needed)

So, not a complicated job, but you need a few bits of kit to get it all working. I may have left stuff off.

Is it the same Bluetooth related parts to work with the RCD510 as I want to add this ASAP?

I have version 7690 which I thought were v7.2 Western Europe. Some website report this version to be v8.0, but it is tricky to work it out!

Where do you live? I could always pop my VAG-COM cable in the post and you send it back. £20 beer money seems to be the going rate!

PM me if you need help with the maps, firmware or VAG-COM.

If its from Lithuania it's generally the real deal...

Mine came from Lithuania and I've had no probs. Just check the seller's details and take the usual eBay precautions.
