Mark's Steel Grey Edition 30 *Dyno Results on Page 3!*
« on: January 23, 2011, 09:28:45 pm »
Hi!

I've just recently treated myself to an Ed30 after owning an Anniversary Mk4 so decided to sign up here! I'm also a member of UK-MkIvs.

It's a 2007 DSG with one previous owner (VW themselves), and it's got quite a number of extras including the Convenience pack, multifunction steering wheel, front armrest, Highline computer, rear tinted windows, rear air vents, metallic paint, Parrot handsfree kit, and the best bit - the RNS-510 touch-screen DVD navigation/entertainment system! :happy2:

I only have pics from the advert at the moment I'll hopefully take some more soon!

Looking great mate
just wondering in that first pic it looks like a normal ariel..?

Does the RNS-510 not need the shark fin antenna for GPS or can you purchase something else instead??

Cheers

Cheers guys!

It has a GPS antenna on the dash (you can see it on the left hand side of the 4th pic).

One thing I am confused about is why it does not have an iPod or CD changer interface. Does this hint that the RNS-510 was installed afterwards?

Not at all, the ipod and cd changer are optional extras, I bought an MDI cable that just plugs into the back of the RNS and gives full ipod control and sits in the glovebox.


One question, on the shot from the passenger side door, what is the black circle on the centre console by the footwell?

Ah, for some reason I thought they came with one of the options as standard. I'm not too fussed about iPod connectivity now - I had my iPod connected to a Pioneer headunit in my Anniversary but due to the fact I had so much music on it I ended up creating playlists of my favourite albums anyway. I've just stuck what I listen to most on a SD card now and it works great! :happy2:

I hadn't noticed that until you said! It's some kind of suction cup mount - I'm guessing it was used for a phone mount or something similar by a previous owner.
