How much did u pay fit the unit if you don mind me asking ...

The unit cost £550 plus postage, I paid a local fitter £30 to fit it, you could do it youreself its quite easy but you do need VAGCOM for somr coding.


Cheers,


Jim

If you get no takers on here then there a few lists of people willing to help out:

That's great got a few guys from Scotland!

I went in and had a chat with the dealer, I am hoping they will at least be able to get the disk out for me and then I can retry installing the old firmware!

All else fails looks like I'll be buying a new unit, anyone selling one ? :-)



If you do need a replacement speak to 'N13KKF' I recently bought a Version C LED RNS510 and the service was superb, he is all over the R32 owners club website if you wanted to check him out first.  I'd recommened him every time.

Me too. I bought the same as Jim and it is spot on and a good price

Also Darren (Mortygt140) - another guy with a top notch reputation

Wow - Dealer just replaced my unit under warranty, I will never ever say a bad word against them ever again in my life  :cool:

Lesson Learned : Leave the Firmware alone unless you have the proper to tools/equipment to fix it when it goes wrong.  I've spoke to a lot of people the past few days - vw navi guys, dealer technician and they all say they are fragile beasts.
