Dunno how the plate system works in the UK, so are we talking about a Mk5? If so, you won't have any of those things show up on the RCD510 unless you retrofit the Mk6 climatronic controls.
I did exactly this myself in my Mk5 GTI. Upgraded to RCD510 initially and then when I retrofitted in Mk6 climatronic controls I then got it displaying on the RCD510.
