Listen to your favourite media apps including Google Play Music, Spotify, TuneIn, and many more Audio apps. Reversing sensor disply works. Bluetooth is fantastic, and audio quality is equivalent to the old 510. The RCD360 Pro is an stereo which is originally only produced for cars exported to Asian countries, not UK or Europe. The beauty of this head unit is that it offers Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and Mirror Link at the same price of an App Connect activation. It is compatible with most PQ 35/46 cars (details on compatibility are below). Please note these units are different than the cheaper RCD360 units with Apple CarPlay only If you don’t have the wireless carplay unit installed, you don’t need to install it, 5532 is also a good choice for you. 5532 is free.

If your Car Model is before 2009 or has 8 Buttons MFSW Steering Wheel, the buttons may not work with RCD330, you will need to buy a CANBUS simulator adapter. All buttons will work and it would solve any possibility of a battery drain. Send me a message and I'll let you know where you can buy this from. Please note that if your car is older than 2009, it may be compatible, however you will need the canbus adapter cable, which we sell separately. Because the RCD330 system is CAN linked, you will also see the visualization of the original VW parking sensors on this system. Hands-free and Bluetooth connection works with all (smart) phones with Bluetooth, including the iPhone and all Android & Windows devices. This RCD330 is code free (MIB Platform) and does not have an AF and TP function. No user operation / manual is supplied with this product. After mounting in your Volkswagen, plug and play. There is no CD player in the device, so the screen is extra large (12.5 cm diagonal).Step 1 - Installing the new boot release: To start, remove the boot door interior lining. This is held in by many trim clips that pop out when pulled. Once this is done, there is also a Torx screw holding in the inside boot handle which ideally needs to be removed. Once this is done, you will be able to see the boot release from the inside. Remove the connector in the original boot release.

Then simply connect the two connectors together and pull the wiring from inside the car. You need to have as much of the wiring in the car as possible so you can connect it to the 12v+ and ground sources. The RCA cable is more than long enough. You can also operate this RCD330 via Android auto, this is an extra option, extra software is then added to the device. If you install the wireless carplay unit and automatically booting and firmware is 5532, you need to install 5536 firmware to solve this problem.Do you have an iPhone and would you like to use Apple Carplay in your Volkswagen? Then this RCD330 Apple Carplay from autopar has the solution, we have a version that also includes the Apple Carplay function. You can then connect your iPhone to your Volkswagen radio RCD330 using your USB iPhone charging cable, making apps from your iPhone available on the RCD330. Think of Whatsapp, Waze, Flitsmeister, iOS Maps, Youtube Music, TuneIn radio, Music, Messages, Phone etc etc. Aside from this hitch, which took me 20 minutes to correct, the rest of the install was easy as pie. 40 minutes all up. On which iPhone does Apple Carplay actually work? Apple CarPlay works on the following iPhone types: iPhone 11, Xr, Xs, iPhone 10, iPhone 8, iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone SE, iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c and iPhone 5.

Plug in the RCA connections and it is all connected. The red tail wire attached to the RCA is needed for other aftermarket head units that have a reverse signal wire. As the RCD330 has been coded for a reverse camera and the RCD330 interacts seamlessly with the CANBUS, there is no need for a reverse signal. Send and receive messages through voice actions using SMS, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and many more messaging apps. For this particular camera, there is a connection between the camera and the main wiring (RCA, 12v+, ground) as shown in the second attached picture. This made it slightly easier for this next step. You also need to attach the antenna adapter, as the factory radio has a double fakra connection and the RCD330 only has one. Again, simply plug in.

In addition to Bluetooth and Apple carplay, this device also supports standard Mirror link, but not all Android mobile phones are suitable for mirror link. Step 2 - Threading wire from the car to the boot: Patience at the ready because this step is a *****. You will need to thread the main wiring --> camera connector through the rubber tailgate tunnel and up through the tunnel running along the side of the tailgate. You will need something long, thin and strong (I used an old wire coat hanger). You will also need to peel away the head lining, and I also ended up removing the C pillar trim ( this is already covered at the bottom of another post named rear camera wiring for 2011 fabia). I did this part in three steps: Key Features -Apple CarPlay / Android Auto / Mirror Link - Touchscreen display - Built in Bluetooth | Integrated microphone - AM / FM channel Apple CarPlay Attention! The version with only Apple Carplay runs on Windows, not the Windows that you are used to from your computer, but a modified version for optimal use on smaller screens in combination with a touchscreen. These are encrypted operating systems, therefore they cannot be updated in the future. The version with Apple Carplay and Android Auto has an operating system based on Linux, these can be updated and are not encrypted. Linux ‘runs’ a bit more stable in practice than Windows. I installed the RCD330 (B) in my '14 Tiguan R-Line (I had the RNS 315). It's a simple install and CarPlay is great (aside from the post-Siri volume adjustment), but my only issue is that I can't get the rear view camera (OEM) to work.
