Re: B6 Estate OEM DAB Aerial Install

When upgraded my b6 Passat to a RNS315 the DAB was just there all I did was add a DAB Ariel £10 on eBay?

Re: Rage Against The Machines! SPACE TO VENT HERE

Yes but what about there being no spaces and just a many unused disabled spaces? It could be argued there are the proportions in many cases are wrong... also...
People who take up two spaces, really annoying.

Re: B6 Head unit, need blue tooth.

RNS315 does it all. Don’t pay more than £300

Re: Which aftermarket RNS style for B6

I have fitted the RNS315 DAB in my B6 and it's brilliant. Streaming music from my phone, nav, Bluetooth and Dab is a must.

Re: RNS 315

Yes I have discovered the only way is to go into setup and set nav volume to zero. Bit long winded but it works.

Re: RNS 315

Hi. Yes but what if you wanted route planner visual only? There lies the problem. Appreciate your input.

Re: RNS 315

Hi, thank you for your reply. That does reduce the sat nav voice volume but it still interrupts the radio, media etc by muting it, that's the problem. You would think that by turning it right down to zero it wouldn't interfere but unfortunatley it does? Maybe you need the steering wheel controls fac...

RNS 315

Hi everyone, I have the RNS315 unit retro fitted to my 56 B6 estate. Now I love the unit and it all works perfectly but I cannot mute the nav. So if I don't want the voice interrupting my radio or music what do I do. My model has the traffic button not the mute as seems common. No steering wheel con...

Re: Nav unit question for AUX/IPOD

Sorry for delay. I'm not familiar with this unit at all. Is thi would have thought that a nav unit would have aux as standard?

Re: Nav unit question for AUX/IPOD

Is it a VW nav unit? If so it is either the RN510 or RNS 315 if so they have the facility you need.

Re: RNS315 Nav Problem

Hi, no it is a retro fit on an 56 B6 Estate. I bought and fitted the RNS315 and the gps module and it sits behind the unit in the dash. The previous unit was an RDS 510 DAB fitted by the previous owner but I think the factory fit was just a basic radio cd unit. It's so strange how it randomly decide...

Re: What are the best OEM stereos to fit in a B6

Yes 40mins is possible if you are fully set up for it and experienced. It me about two hours in two bites but well worth the trouble. I don't understand why the 510 seems to achieve the money they do compared to the 315?

Re: B6 aftermarket head unit not working

I unplugged mine as well when trying to fit a Bluetooth adapter. My mechanic plugged in his diagnostic and fixed it in two minutes. Light gone!
