is it possible to use the oem microphone rather than using aftermarket do you know? shame to have to add another in my eyes, also, does the steering wheel functions work for the dab?? great vid btw, and super bonus wending up with x2 units haha
@whatsdavedone1049 ай бұрын
Unfortunately yes you have to use the aftermarket mic as factory mic is part of the factory radio. Yes steering controls work with dab

Dave did you get the battery drain from this also.?? Is the piggy back video the solution to fix it.
@whatsdavedone1042 жыл бұрын
If I leave my mk5 and mk6 undriven for 5 days I get battery drain...piggy backing off fuse 2 (not fuse 15) stops it and is the solution 👍

Dave, does the Dab+ go in to the normal charging usb slot or the CarPlay usb slot?
@whatsdavedone1042 жыл бұрын
It should work in both slots....it does on mine anyway

Do you need an amp for these head units? I bought one from Podofo and now my speakers are much quieter and I barely get any bass... do I have to instal an aftermarket amp or something?
@whatsdavedone10411 ай бұрын
I have never needed an amp with any of my android units 🤔 Podofo are quite cheap units and use very cheap components

Hello, Did you solved the sound problem? I have the same problem. I went back to the original RNS315 radio and even there the sound is much quieter and almost no bass.

Hi mate, do you know if the optical parking system still displays on android aftermarket screens?
@whatsdavedone1047 ай бұрын
As long as the unit is VW specific and has a canbus box then yes it will display parking sensors front and back. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/msyVdst-r7uxdZs.htmlsi=dXcuIpZhajLEUiC5

Do the steering wheel buttons still work ? Looking at buying one
@whatsdavedone1043 ай бұрын
Yes steering controls and factory parking sensors work straight out the box. If you are looking to purchase an android headunit for your MK6 I would recommend the Eonon VWA12S6G...unlike other head units it's running genuine android 13, cheaper units advertise android 13 but they are not, its android 10 made to look like android 13. If you check out my more recent videos you will see I have teamed up with Eonon and offer my subscribers a discount using code Dave10 at checkout. See link tidd.ly/3tBjQZK

You can purchase an adapter to connect the factory USB...I have one laying around that I never used....it connects to the green plug that was in back of your old unit. I don't use any of my usbs for connecting my phone as my current unit has wireless android auto

What's the head unit brand ?
@whatsdavedone104 Жыл бұрын
The unit that I installed is branded by Pumpkin. Unfortunately it's no longer available. If you are looking for a 9" VW specific headunit I would recommend the Eonon Q53pro, available on amazon, eBay or directly from Eonon.

If its not sitting flush in mk6 then something like a wire or rca jack is blocking it from going completely back
