No i dont think you would need anymore adaptors, and yes the front usb charges very slow as its purpose wasnt intended to be a charger its just for connection for android auto and apple car play mainly
Thank you for that. Any ideas how I could get a fast charge and use the Apple CarPlay at the same time. The unit I’ve bought has the option for a rear USB.

@@thedeballeurdepc7835 thanks, i think it might be a bug, unless you mean full reboot as in hold down the power button fully and it restarts then this will release some settings. Otherwise its a bug will just need a software update
@@MrWaheedulHaque Thanks a lot for the answer I meant restart long press on the button so it's not a bug... but it's a bit weird that we have to reactivate it every time 😅 but anyway thanks for your help!
Haha yh long pressing is basically a soft reset, its for when the device freezes or whatever so its restarts and clears the ram and some basic settings are reset its very normal. Its done to hopefully get your device working again in the event some piece of software caused it to freeze or whatever
Nope unless you can get custom software to run that on otherwise no only way to play videos currently is through mirrorlink. Yes parking sensors show up fine. I will be posting videos over next few days on everything in detail
Informative video, thanks! I have one more question: Is it possible to use carplay with this but let the audio still come out of the iphone? I want to use my bluetooth headset instead of my shitty car sound, that's why I ask :)
Great video. Im thinking of getting a model like this myself, i did try the link in description but wasnt valid. Do you happen to know what the latest/best model of this is right now? 👍🏼
kind of yu will have to use a line out converter. You splice it into the rear speaker wires and it converts the signal to RCA outputs which you run to the amplifier. There are guides on golfmk6.com for wiring a line out converter.
Yes there is right here www.ebay.com/itm/Rear-USB-V3-0-Android-Auto-RCD330-Plus-Noname-187B-CarPlay-Jetta-MK5-MK6-Passat-/184102426890?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0
I got either a 310 or a 330. It looks exactly like yours. It's in my car, which is a Seat Altea from 06. I got a few issues with it after swapping from the original to this. 9/10 times when i browse in the board computer, checking my fuel usage etc, it reacts as forward/backward when i'm listening to music through it. The board computer still browse through whatever as normal. When i receive a call through the radio, i often have to turn it off/on, and/or remove the usb cable in order to hear the person talking, while i use Apple CarPlay with my iPhone plugged in. Last one. I have terrible FM reception. I have to tap the plastic house a few times and somehow it often yeld in better reception, but it is not guaranteed. Any idea what is causing this issues? I got the radio antenna adapter and a quadlock adapter
@@P_DOGG_ALI Hi mate. If you refer to my issue, there's no update yet. I got a canbus adapter on mine so prevent battery drain i suppose, and thats about it. The guy i bought it from is doing engine boost service, so he know a little about cars, and when i told him about the issue he say i probably bought a wrong model from someone, so he refuse to admit anything or help me with it, so i guess its just a thing i have to live with
No didn't bother me at all as losing this tiny feature wasn't much loss compared to all the new features the new radio had, and go for it honestly its worth it and no problem
Went througj 3 adaptors and one worked, Installed the adaptor and then 1 week later it stopped working the box died, so hunted for new adaptor box and yh
Oh if you got one off ebay then its pretty simple to do, the issue with mine is i want to use my oem one which needs converting from the old signal to the new signal, rgb to cvbs or something and finding a working adaptor is all the issue. I just been using parking sensors all this time they work very well so im not too bothered about it

Mine is noname version, but its very hard to get nowadays with all the right features, and this is normal price of the radios haha, this is what i paid but i got heavy discount for youtube
@@MrWaheedulHaque what do you think about the RCD 360/360 Pro? Do you have any experience with them or know of anyone who has experience with them? Recommend?
great review, but what about the sat nav ?
Sat nav only works if phone connected
Hello I bought a RCD 360 but after each complete reboot of the radio the "screen of in 10 s" option disables itself can you tell me if this is the same with the rcd 330?
thank you very much.
What do you mean screen off in 10 seconds, where is this setting found?
@@MrWaheedulHaque You can find the parameter under Setting > Screen > Screen of. tks
@@thedeballeurdepc7835 thanks, i think it might be a bug, unless you mean full reboot as in hold down the power button fully and it restarts then this will release some settings. Otherwise its a bug will just need a software update
@@MrWaheedulHaque Thanks a lot for the answer I meant restart long press on the button so it's not a bug... but it's a bit weird that we have to reactivate it every time 😅 but anyway thanks for your help!
Haha yh long pressing is basically a soft reset, its for when the device freezes or whatever so its restarts and clears the ram and some basic settings are reset its very normal. Its done to hopefully get your device working again in the event some piece of software caused it to freeze or whatever
Would you suggest this or the RCD 340?
330
Does it link to the MFD display?
Yes
Hey mate super helpful video, I’ve got a good with the parking sensors and I’m wondering if they still work on this head unit
Yes parking sensors work amazing on this system and thanks for the nice comment
Does it support mp4 from usb? And does it show parking sensors on screen
Nope unless you can get custom software to run that on otherwise no only way to play videos currently is through mirrorlink. Yes parking sensors show up fine. I will be posting videos over next few days on everything in detail
Hey dude, thanks for the review. What's the Bluetooth calling quality like? Can the other person hear you clearly?
Yes very clear sound quality is good and on other end it is very clear too
Cheers mate. I'm guessing the mic is built in or do you have an external one wired in?
@@digita11y yes built into the radio system its pretty good to say its quite far away from the driver side
Does it work with my back camera? Mk6 Gti
Not without adaptor i have made video on how to do it
Do these fit in the mark 5 gtis
Yes fits fine in mk5 gti's, it will drain battery though so you will need to buy a canbus adaptor, its all plug and play
Informative video, thanks!
I have one more question: Is it possible to use carplay with this but let the audio still come out of the iphone? I want to use my bluetooth headset instead of my shitty car sound, that's why I ask :)
You try might be possible
@@MrWaheedulHaque Can you try? I don’t have it yet 😄
@@jemand8462 ok
Great video. Im thinking of getting a model like this myself, i did try the link in description but wasnt valid. Do you happen to know what the latest/best model of this is right now? 👍🏼

does this have subwoofer output?
kind of yu will have to use a line out converter. You splice it into the rear speaker wires and it converts the signal to RCA outputs which you run to the amplifier. There are guides on golfmk6.com for wiring a line out converter.
Bro, do you remember if there’s an option to run a usb from the back
No there was no option bro
Yes there is right here

Will it fit my 2010 scirocco
Yes will fit fine
I got either a 310 or a 330. It looks exactly like yours. It's in my car, which is a Seat Altea from 06. I got a few issues with it after swapping from the original to this. 9/10 times when i browse in the board computer, checking my fuel usage etc, it reacts as forward/backward when i'm listening to music through it. The board computer still browse through whatever as normal. When i receive a call through the radio, i often have to turn it off/on, and/or remove the usb cable in order to hear the person talking, while i use Apple CarPlay with my iPhone plugged in. Last one. I have terrible FM reception. I have to tap the plastic house a few times and somehow it often yeld in better reception, but it is not guaranteed. Any idea what is causing this issues? I got the radio antenna adapter and a quadlock adapter
Hmmm you might need a canbus adaptor as your car is very old for this system, so look online for that it might fix your issues
@@MrWaheedulHaque Thanks for your reply mate. I got a canbus adapter, that's the quadlock, like one of the videoes you're showing
Any up date on this
@@P_DOGG_ALI Hi mate. If you refer to my issue, there's no update yet. I got a canbus adapter on mine so prevent battery drain i suppose, and thats about it. The guy i bought it from is doing engine boost service, so he know a little about cars, and when i told him about the issue he say i probably bought a wrong model from someone, so he refuse to admit anything or help me with it, so i guess its just a thing i have to live with
@@nicklasdamsgaard4655 fair enough. I liked the idea of seeing a call on my MFD display so this has changed my mind about forking £300 out for one
Will this still show when I adjust my heating and AC on the screen?
No
Did you find that it bothered you? I’m on the bench about buying! Thanks for quick reply
No didn't bother me at all as losing this tiny feature wasn't much loss compared to all the new features the new radio had, and go for it honestly its worth it and no problem
Just ordered it!
Nice hope u enjoy it
Bro how did you get on with your reverse camera? Got the same system
Went througj 3 adaptors and one worked, Installed the adaptor and then 1 week later it stopped working the box died, so hunted for new adaptor box and yh
Im fed up with it so i might just post the video on how to wire it but finding a adaptor box that works is up to the viewer i guess
@@MrWaheedulHaque yeah bro I got one off eBay need to wire it up, just managing with parking sensors atm but it’s not too bad
Oh if you got one off ebay then its pretty simple to do, the issue with mine is i want to use my oem one which needs converting from the old signal to the new signal, rgb to cvbs or something and finding a working adaptor is all the issue. I just been using parking sensors all this time they work very well so im not too bothered about it
You ever tried to add wireless CarPlay adapters such as MMB?
Yes they work but very slow to connect everytime so not worth it
@@MrWaheedulHaque ah I wanted to be able to watch Netflix and that lala. I might just get an android unit
@@P_DOGG_ALI oh yh a normal android unit is better for that
How abouth the park sensors still showing on the screen ?
Yes still showing on screen
where did you buy it from?
This one was from aliexpress as it wasnt as well known back then so it was very rare to find on ebay and amazon at the time
@@MrWaheedulHaque i dont know which one to choose. I chose the lemon shark no name 187b and it stopped working after a month or two.
@@Adam-pt8ry you probs just got a faulty one, all of them wont be like this dont worry
My one has orange accents it is no name as well, the original auxiliary doesn’t work
@@MrWaheedulHaque bro I plugged mine in after a month and it started to work for an hour but then overheated, so i’m guessing it has an overheat issue. Is there a way you know to fix this? Would adding a higher fuse do the trick?
Beautiful 2000HP car ))))))
Thank you brother
When you plug in your phone to the USB does that charge the phone?
Yes it does
@@MrWaheedulHaque thanks for the swift response!
Ok... 1.5 years in of use,and you dont have any stations memorized.... LoL... I wonder does it have any logos on stations Rds functionality or maybe dab+
Oh cos i never use radio no need to i use spotify on bluetooth haha, and the logos do show up depending on if you got internet connection
@@MrWaheedulHaque could you please test it if it shows? I am looking for reviews.. about it
@@elvisvwvw logos do show
@@MrWaheedulHaque thank you buddy
6:00 it is what it is lol
Fo sho
this is for park sensors audio lowering so you can hear sensor beeps
No bro it's not worth it at this time the price for this thing is over 300 dollar now.
They over priced it. Just use a phone holder man , don't spend that much money just to use Android auto .
Haha they still around 180 from aliexpress just downside is the wait which is 2 to 3 months. But worth it
i have a mk5 2008 polo, what do i need to stop battery drain? and is the battery drain considerable? will it severely impact the battery?
You need to fit a canbus adaptor, its literally plug and play, easy install, just search online for your car one
@@MrWaheedulHaque hi bro i just put RCD330 plus into 2012 jetta 2.5l
I am worried about same battery drain will happen to my Car or ? Do i need to use Can bus or its okey for 2012 model? Please reply
Your car is fine no drain will happen
@@MrWaheedulHaque Thanks Bro Will share if something happened i am excited coz just bought my car one week before so 😮 and going to use RCD330 plus
