How to code
your RNS 510 in a 2010 GTI:
Select the CAN Gateway and put a check in the
box beside NAVIGATION.

Unselect Position
Sensing and disconnect the compass in the rear
of the headliner. |

Open the rear
hatch and pull off the trim piece at the top on
the rear of the headliner. The connection is on
the drivers side connected to the Shark Fin
Antenna. I had to use two hands to disconnect
it. The trim piece just pops back on when you’re
done.
Select Navigation or Radio (both have the same
settings) and code it to the accessories in your
vehicle. My GTI has Dynaudio, MDI, Aux-in, and
9W2 Bluetooth.
Check the box labelled AUX-input to activate the
AUX input. |

At the next Byte
you’ll need to select the sound system you have.
Either Dynaudio or VW I believe. |

Check the box next
to Shortpress Steering Wheel Buttons to activate
the Steering Wheel Buttons. Check the boxes for
Bits 2 & 3 to activate the Speed Threshold
features on the RNS 510. The drop down for Bits
4-5 changes the color of the screen on the unit.
The highline option makes the preset boxes
silver, I never tried sportline, but I’ve read
that it’s bright. Premium makes the preset boxes
black and red (pictured below). Check the box
next to Bit 7 to get the navigation information
to show up on the cluster. |



You don't need
to check the CD changer/iPod box unless you have
a CD changer. The MDI input does not need it.
I forgot to take a screen shot of the workshop
code screen, but I just put 01234 or something
like that in each box to prevent it from
throwing a code. I'll get a shot of it when I
get a chance.
