Specifying DAB radio.
« on: 05 July 2010, 08:50 »
I've just looked at the VW webpage and it seems that DAB radio can now be specified with the RNS510 and the RCD310. I seem to remember that DAB could only be specified with the RCD510 previously.
Interesting.

Ohhhhhhhhhh, now I can get the RNS510 upgrade and keep my DAB. Well spotted mate.

Just need to find someone that can get the part.

Its been specified for a while though the sales persons don't tell you this.

I'd hazard a guess it will be the whole unit rather than an add on.

You are probably right as it may have to be a factory order. :rolleyes:
