Check VCDS settings for radio generation III and you CAN gateway. Otherwise your RCD510 will
suck your battery till it's empty.  :wink:

If you change settings via VCDS you may set the RCD510 this way by pressing 'Setup' longer:
 








CAN speed (same as shown on E-MFA). I experienced it to work more precisely than
standard sat navs:

My 2008 GTI already had the right gateway, so we just had change the antenna plug
and set it to ''Gen. III'. I still don't know any details cos I went for the RCD510 in 2008.
