3rd party units are an unknown quantity unfortunately. I have a Chinese 8' NAV unit in my wife's MkV however I had already upgraded the CANbus gateway as I had previously installed an RCD310.

Your first step will be to do a scan with VCDS (ask your friendly local VCDS cable owner near you) and find out the part number and revision of the gateway in your car. If it is already up to date, you have no issue. If it is older and you do decide to install a 3rd party head unit, you can just install it and see if your battery is being drained if you can afford to recharge your battery, or just get a newer one off ebay and install it.
