Hey Kamold,

I have a Volkswagen Passat 2.0 TDI from january 2008.
The RNS510 setup shows the following version information:
Delivery part number: 1T0 035 680A
HW-Version: H04
SW-Version: 1020
SV SW-Version: C_EU_5.540_t730
HW Vehile: 0xC001
SW Vehicle: 0x44261C02
HW Radio: 0003

Can I upgrade to Firmware 4020 modified?
I would like to use the new functionality like Speed Limit display etc.
Are there positive test results for my configuration?

The information on other sides like my-gti.com and vwnavi.com is confusing me because some users say that fw 4020 can only be used for 1T0 035 680D of higher.
If the upgrade would go wrong, can I reinstall the current version 1020 which I have on CD?

I will be gratefull if you could give me information if I can/should do this.

Hi Kamold,

I´ve read that the fw5238 gives TMC problems in the European units and resolve with fw 5274 (not available for "A" units, I think).

Currently I have a modified version of your fw4020 working perfectly in my old RNS 510 "A" unit.

You recommend upgrading to 5238? Are there new improvements?

Thanks again from Spain.

We don't have working TMC here in Australia so I don't know about TMC issues unfortunately. But you cannot use 5274 on A units. So if you use TMC you would possibly be better off staying where you are, or testing 5238 and downgrading if you have problems...

I am running 5238 on my A unit. No TMC, but 5238 is a very stable platform
