VW Scirocco Radio Codes

Scirocco radios lock the moment power drops, and coupe owners tend to find out after winter storage. RCD and RNS units from the 2008 to 2017 cars decode from the VWZ serial on the casing.

Step 1 of 3

How to find your Volkswagen serial number

The guide below will show you exactly where to find your Volkswagen radio serial number.

Remove your radio
Step 1
Remove your radio
Use a trim prying tool to release the surround, remove the mounting screws and slide the unit forward. You do not need to disconnect any wires. The radio only needs to come out far enough to read the label on the casing.
Find your serial number on the label
Step 2
Find your serial number on the label
Your serial number is on a sticker on the side or rear of the casing. It starts with VWZ and is 14 characters long, for example VWZ1Z2H1234567.

Enter it into the box above and we will do the rest.

Note: the capital letter I and the number 1 look very similar on these labels. Check carefully before entering.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Why does my VW Scirocco radio say SAFE?
SAFE is the anti-theft lock mode. It appears when the radio loses power, for example after a flat battery or a battery change, and clears once the correct 4-digit code is entered.
The car sat in the garage all winter and now the radio wants a code. Why?
Batteries self-discharge in storage, and once the voltage drops far enough the radio treats it as a power cut and locks. The code from your VWZ serial clears it.
What does the serial number look like?
All VW radio serials begin with VWZ and are 14 characters long, for example VWZ1Z2H1234567. The label is on the side or back of the casing. Watch out for the capital letter I and the digit 1, which look almost identical on these labels.
The radio shows 2 SAFE and will not take the code. What now?
The unit has locked after too many wrong attempts. Leave the radio switched on for about an hour and it will accept the code again. Enter it carefully using the preset buttons.
