Firmware updates for European RNS510 units

[RoccoDude]

Hi guys,

New to all of this but done a fair of research. I'm from the UK, recently bought a late 2009 Scirocco with a RNS510 in it. Obtained version info from the unit:

Part no: 1T0035680C
HW Version: H04
SW Version: 2660
HW Vehicle: 0xC801
HW Radio: 0006

Based on a thread here, I believe I have a version C unit. Looking to update to get full postcode input for the nav system. According to the first post, the best firmware for my unit would be 4120 - can someone confirm this is correct? If so, the link is dead - should it point to http://www.rnsfirmware.com/downloads...FW_70_25_5.ISO linked to from here RNS Firmware » RNS510 firmware 4120 modified for Europe? Is one of the mods in these firmwares to prevent the factory coding being applied during update?

I have read that people have experienced battery drain with firmware > 3xxx with older CANbus gateways - is this likely with 4120?

Thanks in advance for any assistance

No recoding required. No battery drain in vehicles 2008 and later. The link is fine. Try again. You will also need your map DVD on hand to reload. Check gpsunderground for v9.

Thanks a lot for your advice kamold. Could you confirm that fw 4120 is ok for my rev C please?

Tried the link for 4120 again and get a 404 not found - when looking at the link it also has Australia in the URL. The 4020 link also gives a 404 not found but that has Europe in the URL

4120 is fine for your unit. The isos are working. Try going to rnsfirmware .com and follow the link there.

Thanks for confirming that, much appreciated.

I think you misunderstood which link is dead - the links to the ISOs on rnsfirmware.com are fine as I have downloaded the 4120 firmware, its the links to rnsfirmware.com in post 1 of this thread that are dead. I had to click on the banner and then find the appropriate article to get to the ISO...

Hopefully thats a bit clearer

[kamold]

Ah now I understand. I will have to update the post.

Hi,

By checking the version menu I notised
HW DAB: 255
SW DAB: NOTAVAILABLE

I'm wondering if I should install 5269 on my RBS510, who can advice?
I understood that 5269 is the improved version 5238 both supporting DAB.

Does your unit have a DAB board in it as none of the Australian ones do. There apparently is a new model on the way which has the required hardware
