Firmware updates for RNS510 units in Australia/NZ

[Hillbilly]

Tried a version of 4020 firmware today to downgrade and had success loading V8 maps! Thanks for your help. Now the question is whether I should try updating to a newer firmware or stick with 4020. Cheers!

Dont bother 4120 was ok and upgrading past that doesnt make buggar all difference

5238 is the most stable and complete firmware version for most units.

I thought 5274 would be better if the car is post-2008?

Oh I didn't mean to be disrespectful at all, I am just purely asking a question.

The answer is 5238 for the reasons he said above Support for that unit is over by VW and no more maps either so its toast really.

5269 and 5274 can be very unstable on some units, causing random reboots etc.
By all means try them (there are no feature differences to 523 but in general 5238 is the most broadly compatible version.

Thanks for the info and I took your wise advice and updated to 5238 without a glitch. Had to reload the map but all my addresses remained. Parking sensor and climate control on-screen display are all present.

One weird phenomenon is that the headunit will jump back to display bluetooth audio randomly when I have it on a map. It happens when my iPhone switches between songs, but does not happen with every song...

Hi, I have a 2014 VW Jetta TDI that I just purchased.
Delivery port number: 1T0035680L
Hardware version: H09,
SW: 5269,
Map HDD : 8035.

I wish to update my Australian maps to the latest version. I dont think updating the firmware would be necessary since theres no significant upgrade after that. Does anyone know where I could get it? Further what version of maps does 8035 correspond to? V9?? Thanks for your help.

V9 was on sale for about $500 and apparently wasnt a lot different to V8 which most of us use as no one is going to pay for V9
VW no longer support versions of maps for the RNS 510

Illegal software (Copied maps) are not allowed on here any more.
