Posted by ZhuBin on

Hi everyone👋 today let’s talk about a popular head unit upgrade for Volkswagen owners — the SCUMAXCON RCD330, along with the newer SCUMAXCON RCD340 and SCUMAXCON RCD360.
When  searching online,you’ll often see part numbers like 6RD 035 187B or 187E, as well as terms like RCD330G Plus or the Desay version. It can get confusing, so let’s break it down:

RCD330 187B and 187E: models are the most common, both supporting CarPlay and Android Auto.

RCD330 Desay version: stands out because it allows firmware updates for better stability.

RCD340 and RCD360: are considered upgraded options, offering broader compatibility.

Why the RCD330 is so popular?

The appeal of the SCUMAXCON RCD330 is that it brings modern features to older Volkswagen models such as the Golf MK5, MK6 GTI, Tiguan, and Amarok. With it, you can enjoy CarPlay, Android Auto, reverse camera support, Bluetooth, USB, CD playback, and even Sirius radio. For many owners, it’s a cost-effective way to modernize their vehicles.
Of course, one of the most discussed topics in forums is battery drain. To address this, the SCUMAXCON RCD330 now comes with anti-drain technology, designed to prevent battery discharge during long parking periods. This makes the SCUMAXCON edition more reliable for daily use.

Looking for wireless?

And what if you don’t want to rely on wired CarPlay? That’s where the SCUMAXCON RCD360 PRO3S comes in. It integrates wireless CarPlay and Android Auto, and it’s also fully compatible with premium audio systems such as Dynaudio and Fender.

Summary
✅The SCUMAXCON RCD330 is a practical, budget-friendly upgrade that adds modern smartphone integration and includes anti-drain technology.
✅The SCUMAXCON RCD340/RCD360 extend compatibility and, in some cases, support more features.
✅The SCUMAXCON RCD360 PRO3S offers the most complete solution, with wireless connectivity and premium audio support.

In the end, the right choice depends on what you value most — wired stability, wireless convenience, or enhanced audio performance. Either way, the SCUMAXCON lineup delivers reliable, factory-style upgrades for your Volkswagen. 🚗✹
