Setup menu rns510

[gazza53]

Hi

Trying to determine my firmware & map revision for my RNS510 (C). Tried
holding the setup button down, but doesn't go further than the radio menu. Is there
another trick to get this info. Also who is the most capable dealer in Perth for upgrading
firmware, maps etc.

Thanks

There are two ways to do this. Explained in the link.

Accessing the Setup Menu on RNS 510 head units with firmware version 2660 / 2662 / 2664 / 2666 / 2668 | my-gti.com

You don't need a dealer to upgrade the firmware or maps. Its an easy job. At worst find a member in Perth to help you out.

What do you want upgraded gazza?

From memory, the VIM iso also has the secret menu enabled.

So you could enable it this way, whilst also enabling VIM.

Firmware Ver.276x also has secret menu.

If it already has 27xx firmware then it won't be able to update without enabling downgrade. Best option for upgrade would be to go to the 39xx custom firmware...

Keeping holding the button down.

I first tried finding the secret menu while driving and held the button down and didn't pay attention to the screen as some traffic was coming up. When i looked at the screen a minute later i had the secret menu (mind you i have loaded the VIM file mentioned by Aussietig above).

Anyway, tried it at home again and held the button and it didn't work. I eventually figured out that I had to keep holding it, I think there are two menus that come up before the secret menu and i was letting go at the first screen that appeared.

My RNS510 is supposed to have voice activation, but can't see how to get it to work, so thought
a firmware upgrade might help.....but unsure how to proceed as there seems to be much
conflicting information on the topic. Also my premium blutooth has low & distorted TX so would
like to address this issue also.

Hey I know this is an old thread but I've been trying to get into the secret menu to see what version RNS510 I have. I don't the coding behind and held the setup button in for over 2 mins and still nothing? Is there another way?

If yours is a stock unit, then based on the MY of your Golf, my guess would be that it's a F unit.

However your easiest option is just to pull the unit out and have a look at the sticker. Pretty easy to do on the Mk6 Golf.
