Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • SatNav help

    Guys,

    Looking for some advice. My car still hasn't arrived and no one seems to be able to tell me when it will (I found this car in Aust, sure in Victoria rather than NSW but anyway).

    My question though is this - my dealer has insisted that I can only have the old SatNav installed (they were going to charge me $3250!). Anyway, I have said 'no' to that kind offer, but the problem is, I would like the RNS-510 or something like the Pioneer AVIC-HD3 but would like to do it via my finance, rather than purchasing myself after picking the car up (I would rather blow cash on a new exhaust etc ).

    Is there anyway I can ask my dealer to put an invoice through, give em a $100 bucks for the trouble and then get someone else to install?

    Man my dealer was willing to fit Rola racks, mag wheels, the dealer principle even hinted a chip wasn't out of the question. I figure they can do anything you need via finance, depends how much they like you.

    Be nice!

      Cheers Cogdoc. Sounds good. The RNS-510 they wont do - claim they screwed a GTI or R32 trying to install it but if they would organize it or an AVIC, I will be very happy

          also pioneer is close to bringing out a new unit similair to the hd3 but the face is removable and becomes a portable sat nav unit like your navman and so on.....so you might want to consider this option to.....

            Sure you can, as long as the dealer has an account with the supplier you want the goods from. They will just give them a purchase order for the goods.
            I organised accounts for everything on mine, Pro-kit, 19's, Superchip & Kenwood Nav! All financed
            Cheers,
            Jamie
