I'm looking for some info regarding the RNS510. I've specced a RCD510 and am considering purchasing a RNS510 to replace it.
I have also specced Dynaudio and am not sure if I replace the RCD, will the Dynaudio work without having to select a specific version of the RNS to allow the Dynausio to function.
Basically, will the 'any' 'C' version RNS510 work with Dynaudio?
I appreciate the Dynaudio logo may note appear on the start up display but I'm not concerned by that.
thanks in advance,
cheers,
Jon

The dynaudio will work fine after the Rns has been coded properly, even the logo will show on the start screen  :cool:

The Rns doesn't have to be a specific version has the dynaudio has been available since the Rns was fitted to the first vw models.

As you have answered his question Darren, may I jump in ?

do you know of a way of getting the DAB receiver in the RCD510 moved/swapped over into the RNS510 ?

unfortunately its not possible kev, the dab tuner is linked to the motherboard in the Rcd510 so without serious damage to the rcd there is no way oem.

But you could always buy one of these freeview modules on ebay that work with the rns510 have a look on ebay,

If you want the vw one prepare to pay over £1k for the dab box its used on the Rns810 in the pheoton and touereg(sp) for the tv and dab.

Cheers Darren, that looks like just the ticket!! My only concern is that you need a remote to operate it. is there nothing else that VW offer that allows you to control the unit through the rns510? Sorry to be picky:smiley:
