The first department (A) is the performance upgrade, to better the driveability and power delivery, especially after the EA189 'fix'. So had a remap done on the TDI engine to get a boost of 30% or more BHP and Torque with Pete's stage 1 remap.
The second department (B) is about improving the lighting effectiveness of the headlights. For this, I had tried 2 different LED headlights and on second try, got the perfect LED type headlight. The third department (C) is still ongoing. I will post the updates (A+B+C) on my ownership thread.įor the last department (D), the stock RCD510 has become too dated, is sluggish, touchscreen is not very responsive, UI is boring and adding upgrades such as bluetooth, USB, maps or CarPlay are expensive with additional modules. And not to miss the absence of a reverse camera option. After a long deliberation, finally decided to upgrade to RCD330g Plus (one with noname, green LED/menus with Carplay, Android Auto) + a sony CCD RVC. There ain't much options out there in OEM that integrates with Carplay, AA even if you have a limitless budget. For a mere budget of ~ 20K or less in total (headunit + RVC), it's a obvious upgrade path.Ĭomponents that I bought from AliExpress: The only drawback is I would lose radio/address book entries in maxi-dot (which is anyway, redundant and I don't use it practically). RCD330g GREEN, NoName (6RD 035 187B) - Though it is bit expensive than the red ones by 3-4K, I wanted to preserve and match the stock green backlit of the dash. I also wanted the possibility to upgrade the firmware to support any changes to CarPlay, Android Auto in future and hence opted for the NoName variant, which runs linux OS instead of Win CE based Desay Units.
