MFD3/RCD510

On the RNS 510 can someone tell me please how it handles files and folders structure when mp3s are played off the HD? How are the artists etc listed? Is it a similiar layout to an ipod for example? Cheers. 

2007GTI seems to have one...would just need to wait till her replies...

Has anyone seen the new touch screen RCD500 that they are now fitting to the Tiguan? (not the SatNav version)

spoke to VW today the rcd510 is £1600 plus you have to buy the nav cd to.
now as this works of a cd the unit will still have to posit itself so i take it must have an antenna, is this internal dash mounted or is it shark fin on roof as this would incur a wee bit of work.

its called an RNS 510!

£1100 off ebay, with nav info already installed.  considering nav DVD is £200 from stealer, thats a big saving.

not sure what you mean by "now as this works of a cd the unit", the data is stored on the internal hard drive, but yes it must have a GPS antenna.

as for antenna, you can just mount it in the dash below the top vent as I did, no need to put shark fin on roof.

one thing you cant do on an RNS 510 (and we cant find a fix for it yet) is to enter a full UK postcode.  strange but true.

loads of info here:  www.vwnavi.com

I am having the Kenwood DDX-7029 fitted this week, same and DNX-7200 but without the sat nav and a few hundred quid cheaper. Have a Tom tom which i am happy with and like the flexibility of being able to take it in work vehicles. My main reason for change is the whole i-pod issue, it completely does my head in not displaying tracks etc.,

Iv got a DNX 7200 and i must say its great but...lets see how the RNS510 works
