Someone I know has a second hand RNS510 they are selling at a very good price. They had to take it out their T5 as they were having the following issues...
a fault code scan always showed the unit to be incorrectly coded as it does not match the T5 electrical architecture. From what I could tell I think the internally provided voltage output to the GPS antenna is too high and is damaging the antenna which is why the new one failed so quickly. When I checked the voltage I read 8 volts and as far as I can find out it should be 5 volts.
does anyone know what would cause this? Im not clued up on stereos so would I have this same issue with my mk5 Golf?
Also what do I need exactly to install it? Do I need...
1. a new antenna for my car? (currently has MFD2 stereo fitted)
2. a bluetooth kit (wheres the best place to get this from)?
3. A Canubus upgrade (which part number is this?)
appreciate theres a few articles on this stereo but im struggling to find all the info I need.

I can provide both precoded can gateway and bluetooth kit. You would need arial adapter and GPS arial. :happy2:
