RNS 510 v4 map disks
« on: 17 April 2009, 11:59 »
I've just read that these are now available, does anyone have them and what are the differences to V3? I'm thinking of purchasing them but wanted to know the differences before parting with cash.

correct me if im wrong but it has 5 digit postcode search also upto date maps of the uk. i think these new discs are encrypted so they cant be copyed and burnt to another disc. Also the makers are blauplunk these discs are major money aswell.
If your buying im selling!!!!!!!

Im not sure if I am allowed to mention where but the torrent site currently high profile on the news has it. To be honest after paying so much for a V3 I dont see why VW dont allow a free upgrade, or at least a significantly reduced price!

Is the RNS 510 the standard DVD sat nav in the Mk5?

Sorry no mention in my manual on the model number :(

I think there is another sat nav unit in the MK5 also - the RNS510 was the upgrade to that, and is the current top range OEM system.

One of you guys that has the RNS510 - sell it to me!!!

The original DVD Sat Nav for the MK5 (as below) was the MFD2.




The new one is the RNS 510 (below) as most of you know about, DVD Nav installable to 40GB HD, SD Card reader.




The RCD510 (below) is basically the RNS510 but with a lower resolution screen, no satnav and no hard drive. It does however have the SD Card Reader and builtin 6CD Changer.

synnea - many thanks! Thats cleared that up

(nice to see the map on the examples is of my area too :) )

Is it worth upgrading the RNS 510? Is it even possible to?
