Hi ventoman,

Its located on the left side within boot of Vento. Here is picture of the same, I believe your car will have the same module. This does not support OPS display.

As mentioned earlier you can buy either 4K module to support only rear sensors of 8K module if you plan to install front parking sensors. You will have to replace existing module with new one and route wire from 12 pin connector to CANBUS powertrain (BCM).

Regards.

Hey all,
I installed the 330 plus, and the rvc but when slotted into reverse i get a black screen showing brightness adjustment and '' look! Safe to move?", but no image :(

Hi Guys,

I have a question, and it is not related to Polo/Vento.

If I buy RCD 330G, will I be able to install it in my Toyota Corolla 2006? And if yes, will the steering controls also work with this?

I have the stock stereo now with 6 CD changer with steering controls, but I am missing features of USB, BT & Aux.

Edit: Space there is sufficient for 5 inch system.

Quoting my own post. Please help on my query.

Hi KK_HakunaMatata,

I believe this head unit might not be compatible with your car since this is CANBUS enabled. Several functions are dependent on CANBUS connection. Also I am not sure if this will fit in the OE location of your car.

Most of the folks using this in VW are doing this mainly for OE look and functions. You will have far more options in the aftermarket head units.

Regards.

Hi leprechaun,

Please try to click on this black/blank screen and see if you notice any disturbance in audio (radio/media playing on head unit) and then try to reset again.

Regards.

Try again with Boot and all doors closed. Happened with me also. If you don't close boot this happens. Hope it helps you.

Hey Maddy, finally I got it working. Now the thing is, it works only once after the car is started. Like if I disengage reverse and engage it again, there's no change in the screen, the car has to switched off and back on for it work again.

I got a sweet deal from seller and luckily it's cheaper than RCD 330 G.

I got it for $100 with free shipping by aramex (express shipping). I got my package within 5 days.

Congratulations the system looks very awesome. I have just booked my GT TSi which is due for delivery next week. Got lucky and didn't have to wait for it. Can you please PM me the link for the HU and the cables I might need for it to work?

Thanks.

Hi All,

I see a lot of people installing reverse camera in their Vento/Polo. Does using the Vagtune Setup mentioned in some of the earlier posts ( link here) creates any issues with the warranty?

Totally satisfied with the installation. I was happy with RCD 330G unit. I didnt want to change the head unit for the camera. They were able to install the camera with Park pilot on RCD 330G head unit.

Hello dsinz,
can you kindly share the address and / or contact numbers of Vagtune Bangalore? Thanks in advance.
Regards, Seshadri.

Guys,

Is there any way to enable Android Auto on the RCD 330G?

I had heard that VW had some "App Connect" package which enabled this?

Thanks

Thanks, but i had already seen that thread before i posted. That thread talks about older versions of the passat/polo/vento.

My cars year of manufacture is 2016 and has mirrorlink, android auto however doesn't work.
