  • Finally got me an R32!!!

    Hi All- just got my new R32 home- Blue DSG, 2008, 19k km's, i-pod, touchscreen stereo...

    Spent many hours on here beforehand so thanks to all for the great information.

    Very, very happy with it so far. No plans to do any mods, quite happy just as it is... although the Lithuanian RNS510 is very tempting!!!

    Quick question if anyone can help- cant seem to get the full ipod (80gb Classic) connectivity through the stereo (not sure what the model is called... think it is the genuine upgraded VW touchscreen but with no GPS???). Read a bit on here and after fiddling plug-in prior to ignition etc managed to get it playing through the 'CD' area but it will only display 'track 19' for instance and I can only skip forward and back. If I try and use AUX area I get nothing (the play button does not even light up). Also notice in the set-up area that if I tick the 'activate aux' icon I get nothing at all- not even able to play through the CD area. Could it be a problem with the Vagcom or am I just being a bit simple????

    Please do not point me in the direction of the manual...I have read many posts that are solved through a good read, but I have already read it cover to cover and no help. In fact the manual I have is for the RNS500 (BTW does that mean that my touchscreen is aftermarket?).

    Thanks and be back soon!!!

      Welcome to the R32 club, hehe. Great colour choice as well

      The stereo you most likely have is an RCD-510 (google image to check), you probably just have an aftermarket iPod input on the HU, which means that it will show up as CD-7 under the stacker selection and all you'll be able to see is Track 19... Track 101, etc. You would need to upgrade to the MDI setup if you wanted track names, etc showing up. All of this of course is I think from what you've described.

        Thanks for the replies guys!

        xc17ed... your right RCD510it is! Also think you are right on the i-pod. When you say upgrade to the MDI setup is that something I can do or do I need vagcom?

        Thanks again!
