RNS315 - More problems

Post by oange »

I'm now having a very annoying problem with the DAB radio.

I have a radio station selected, lets say its radio 1. I park the car and go shopping / visit a customer / do something else. I get back to the car and drive somewhere else. The radio still says that Radio 1 is selected, I can press the Radio 1 preset on the console and it beeps to tell me that Radio 1 is selected. However, Radio 1 is not playing. I've had a number of different stations instead of the selected radio station and this is not just happening with Radio 1.

The fix is to choose a different station and then switch back to the required station but this is clearly a bug.

Anyone else having the same problem?

It sounds like VW have canned the RNS315 as they are offering a free upgrade to the 510 on any new models. This is very annoying for those of us that got the car early and have to suffer the 5 digit postcodes, poo routing and dodgy radio station selection amongst other things.
