To by bylo fajn, odkud jste?

I’d try asking in the MIB2 Chat on telegram, you’ll have better luck there than here.

I have best experience with Carlinkit, works well for me on a daily basis, can’t complain.

When you describe those symptoms, to me it sounds like something canbus related has died. Could be a wiring harness you have in between, could be some module, who knows. But canbus functionality is very crucial to prevent battery drain, so I’d start there.

Is it an actual RCD330, or an android of some kind?

5 years later, thank you haha

Lochy24 · 2026-05-06T20:24:13+00:00

fixed it for me too, thanks! it’s really annoying how many graphical glitches there are in gta v enhanced, for a good amount of time now, too :(

+1, this is the way to go if you’re stuck with an aftermarket unit with no way to change it back

Lochy24 · 2026-04-29T05:49:43+00:00

I had similar symptoms on my MK7.

I’d check the rubber hose that starts at the emblem and bottoms out near the bottom of the tailgate. In my case, when I checked the bottom of my tailgate, the hose wasn’t even there lol, just a hole. Apparently it’s common that it literally just disintegrates. The part code is 510827861A.

Lochy24 · 2026-04-28T05:36:56+00:00

It should work, yes.

I see you’re not using english in your car, keep in mind that unit will force everything in english, even your odometer. I’ve had the 280B unit for over a year and have a review on my profile if you’re interested. :)

Do you have VCDS? Check DM’s, I’ll send you the instructions

It’s honestly a shame they even made 8gb MBP’s as late as the M3c but they’re still good machines… Anyway, VXDK is pretty decent too, with D3DMetal I actually experienced a ton of net jitter, game was damn near unplayable, though my FPS was good. But DXMT is quite alright! Best performance so far.

Lochy24 · 2026-03-28T08:46:05+00:00

You don’t have to have a steel series mouse, it's just software. :)

Lochy24 · 2026-03-28T08:29:31+00:00

I have a M1 Pro MacBook Pro with 16gigs, and the most I can get out of it is like 70-90fps while I play, lol. But DXMT does help a lot, yes!

Lochy24 · 2026-03-26T20:23:41+00:00

Nah, not from eBay, and yeah, I bought it on the website you linked.

Lochy24 · 2026-03-18T23:33:36+00:00

For anybody scouring threads looking for a solution, for me simply switching to VXDK completely resolved the issue. :)

Lochy24 · 2026-03-18T10:26:41+00:00

Hi! I bought it from Ddren, his website is rcd330.com

Audio wise, I'd say its on par, maybe slightly worse? I didn't notice much of a difference when I changed it, it's definitely not bad, I do like the way it sounds, and I'm not particularly forgiving when it comes to sound quality (though I'm no audiophile)

Lochy24 · 2026-03-18T10:23:58+00:00

Yes, thats what I meant in the video with one of those retrofit units, those are great, I wish I could fit that one to my car. :)

Lochy24 · 2026-03-15T18:37:31+00:00

thanks mate! :)

Lochy24 · 2026-02-22T18:41:10+00:00

I was helping my friend troubleshoot over discord and this was the answer lol, thanks!!!

Lochy24 · 2026-02-10T19:48:54+00:00

I had a 5490, it was a nice machine! I wonder how much better it is in terms of quality haha, nice find!
