Rns510 version and software
« on: 17 March 2013, 22:01 »
Ok, got a 59 plate mk6 golf gti, i beleive the software on the rns maps is old, as i read people can now use postcode to serch their locations and etc on theirs, and mine does not have that!

How do i find out what rns i have? What software and how do i get updates for it??

Cheers steve x

Not really, the best thing to buy although expensive is VCDS, you buy the cable and get the sofware for free, it's fully supported by ross-tech.

The cheap ones on ebay are very unreliable so i'd either get the above or ask around for someone who has it already and can help out for a few beer tokens.
