Firmware updates for RNS510 units in Australia/NZ

[PeteC]

Just updated the firmware to 5238 from 4120.
I didn't need to load the V8 maps again after the update, also all my music stayed on the HDD and POIs.
Is this normal?

Plus I couldn't update my boot screen, it shows downgrade error message at the end of the update process. I used the link above to create the iso.

Turn unit on. Wait until all modules are working.
Press these 3 buttons at the same time: 1. Eject. 2. Setup & 3. "Info/Mic" (next to "eject"). Unit will reboot.
After re-booting has completed...insert your disc with new splashscreen. Wait for 2 minutes. Voila.

If you were already running the same custom partitions it won't delete maps or music.

Hi guys

Just a quick question on the RNS 510 on my PAssat CC MY12 with the following details

Delivert PArt Number 1T0035680D
HW-VErsion H55
DW Version 3970
Map Version HDD 7679

How do I go about upgrading this unit. I don't have any maps CD. Also what will be the benefits of upgrading the firmware.

Not a lot but from the OP follow instructions to get 5238 firmware and buy a $55 V8 map. Dont ask for copies. You need a DVD for firmware and follow instructions.

Just updated the firmware to 5238 from 4120 on my D model. That went OK, but no maps. Tried to load new v.8 map disc. Wouldn't load maps, and no info on the screen. Tried rebooting, but no good.

When I zoomed out the map scale to 700km I found that Europe could be seen as a deep purple colour and the oceans were all black. That's why I said i thought I had a black screen. Weird.

I'm trying to find a working link to go back to 4120 with the 95/5/5 partitions. Can't find the disc I burnt a couple of years ago anywhere.

As always, any help much appreciated.

You shouldnt have lost the map Go for a drive and let it reorient itself If that doesnt work load an older map disk and if that loads then load V8
You cant load the same map over itself I found that out last year

Thanks Hillbilly. I just got out my v.7 maps, and was going to try to load that disc, but I'll try the drive first.... In the morning.

Just need a GPS signal top reorient the system. At worst have seen it take up to an hour. Driving around shouldnt take more than a few mins.
