Hello

Some 2008 Golf GTI do not have battery drainage problems. You need to provide your VIN code. I will check your gateway model for you. It would be better if you can query the gateway yourself. The gateway is located directly above the accelerator pedal. If the gateway model starts with “7N0”, then your car does not have a battery drain problem. If you happen to have no multi-function steering wheel, you can not install the CANBUS simulator at all, but if your car has an 8-button multi-function steering wheel , Then, no matter what model your gateway is, you must install the CANBUS simulator and your multi-function steering wheel can work for RCD330 plus.

CANBUS simulator has two functions, one is to solve the battery drainage, and the other is to solve the problem of 8-button multi-function steering wheel control.
You can select a unit from the link below.
