My Blackvue DR400G turned up in record time from eBay (2 days) and installation was a doddle. Here's a quick informal review.
The quality of the hardware seems to be above average. The plastics...
That looks perfect. Hidden behind the rear-view mirror? I've run the bluetooth mic up through the trim, so I'm comfortable doing that again for a dash cam.
Ed: just saw some videos on youtube and...
I've been looking at getting a dash cam. I've seen some cheapies on ebay - $35 for a 1.3MP camera with SD slot (32GB max). Unfortunately they use suction cups and cigarette chargers, so they'd look...
It's all sorted out. My father got his genuine VW towball fitted last week. The dealer had just received the software upgrade.
Yes it does, thank you. You have the F model and I have the C model. That's almost certainly the important difference.
I can upgrade the 9W7 to an F model for about $299 but I'm not that keen....
I would very much like to know how you're getting Album, Artist, Track names to appear over Bluetooth. I have an iPhone 4 with IOS5, 9W7 and RNS510 and all I get on the display is "Bluetooth Audio"....
Nah, the VW bluetooth unit generates the ring tone, it completely ignores the phone's ringtone. Very annoying if you use the iPhone feature of unique ringtones for different callers.
Has anybody heard about a rumour about the Passat (2011) Towball being recalled? I was going to buy one (Hayman Reece doesn't make an aftermarket towball for Passat 2006+). But the dealer said...
The POI button is grayed out on mine. I've never had a satnav before so didn't realise this feature was supposed to work.
So that's a bit of a bummer.
No, the maps somehow survived, even though the instructions said the maps are deleted by the upgrade.
Lucky me.
Personal value, sure. Resale value, not so much. You won't add $1500 of resale value to the car.
I bought one from sat_nav_online and it hasn't exploded so far.
I have an RNS510 version C which I've upgraded to 3930. I'm using the V3 Australian maps which still work.
No observed problems so far, knock on wood. I haven't personalised any POIs.
I stuck the bluetooth behind the climate controls. Didn't even consider putting it under the seat because I thought the foam looked ugly (I'm tall with long legs so my seat goes all the way back)....
SOLD
I have an RCD510 for sale. Condition is immaculate. Comes with the security code as supplied by the dealer. Bought new with a car in January 2011 and recently replaced with an RNS510.

Can I ask how much you paid?
You might need to swap some pins because VW changed the AUX pins between gen-2 and gen-3 radios.

Looking for an OEM boot mat (aka cargo liner) to fit Passat Wagon MY10. Local stores have no stock and shipping doubles the price. I've investigated other options (e.g. the supercheap generic mats)...
Anybody know a good place to buy the RNS510 maps? I upgraded the firmware on my refurbished RNS510 and it deleted the onboard maps. I didn't get a map disc with the satnav because it's second hand...
Not just R36s. The used car market is bleak (for sellers) right now.
I had a similar problem with my MDI. From the dealer it was fine, but in the process of installing my Bluetooth I stuffed the MDI. Crystal clear audio from CD and bluetooth streaming, but crackling...
Nothing to do with the radio stations. It's when she says "Main Menu". It sounds more like "Ma-a-ai-in Me-enu".
Everything works fine after that though.
I installed it myself. Bought the 9W7 off eBay. Coded with my own vagcom.
There's no fault when using the Bluetooth. Only the voice menus are garbled.
Mine comes out garbled. :(
