Title: a bit of advice please RCD510
Post by: NEWEY on August 05, 2009, 05:28:49 pm

Hi all im looking at buying the RCD510 the main reason for this is that im fed up with the rcd300. i have got the ipod dock in the car in the arm rest. this listing says that it will play and show the ipod track name etc. is this true? as this is something that i really want.

Yes it's true you can get touchscreen control over the iPod with the RCD510, however you need the VW MDI cable which are currently fetching around £200 on eBay.  :happy2:
