just been into my dealer and spotted this
http://www.kenwood-electronics.co.uk/car/vw
Navigation units £942 (fitted)
part no.ZGB000035520
Ipod lead (£34)
ZGB000035521
They tell me vw has taken this product on as a genuine part as it contains all the bluetooth etc etc without costing £3k

I think someone has one of those for sale on here.
Look very OEM+ too
-
Will it work after the digital switch over ?.
-
lol!!
well i got a reply from kenwood. it doesn't talk to a MFL or MFL+1 for freeview lovers

I was talking to my mate who sub works for vw apparently this new kenny will not work with what vw have to offer at the moment he said its 5 years too late...will not work with mdi or rear camera or the highline or mf steering wheel.

It looks the biz , I must admit. How much is the OEM VW Nav? The RNS510 i think it is?

new its about £1900 as an option, but you can get them for between £450-£600 depending on what version you want

My local dealer fitted there first one today and said they have had a lot of interest in the units, certainly not a bad option for a boggo spec car :smiley:
-
the system is reasonably priced (for VW), and the connectivity is very good. It looks ace. The big downside of this unit is the interface. when comparing it to the RNS510 which is great, this is just awkward to use. but then its around half the price of the RNS510 new, and connects to more things . i guess its horses for courses really.

Pioneer have a new VW sized unit very nice my mates a Pioneer Rep and he has it in his MK5 tdi.
Better than their first attempt.

Their prices look ok , £600 to supply and fit a RNS 510 - surely these wont be genuine at this price?

Hi Newbie here...
Just had mine fitted and wow its great. :jumping:. I have steering wheel controls and they all work fine? so not sure about above post? Yes you do loose air con display from the radio unit and audio display from the head up display. but all the the features from the head with sat nav, bluetooth etc out way this. :grin:
