OK, this might be a bit of an "out there" question, but does anyone know what the various firmwares are for the 8" Nav Pro in the Golf 7, what they added / fixed with each one and what hardware they might work with ?
Mine came with 0172 from the factory and was updated to 0200 by the dealer a couple of months back following some "glitches" with the unit, but I didn't actually see anything new as such (maybe it was just bug fixes) ?
I notice some newer cars are coming with 0362 firmware which is much later than mine, and was wondering what these add over 0200, and whether it only works with newer hardware ?
Specifically I'm looking to see if the DAB artwork auto generation in "station info" and "slideshow" modes actually works on the later firmwares and downloads the artwork automatically over the airways on the latest generation units ? I'm not referring to the station pre-set logo's, as I can download these from SD card (and have done), but according to what I've read on line, even those are supposed to be available automatically once you have assigned a pre-set to a station, but it never worked that way on mine. When I first got the car (September 2013), the "station info" and "slideshow" artwork used to work, and I would get for instance, artwork of the currently playing album on the radio appear automatically, but for some reason it just stopped a couple of months after getting the car and has never worked again.
I'm just trying to see if this was fixed in later (late 2014 early 2015) models of if it still doesn't work. If it does, my friendly dealer said they would enquire once I give them the firmware number with the factory to see if that particular firmware would work with my hardware ?
I know this has sort of been discussed before, but I'm on a bit of a mission having rejuvenated by enthusiasm for the car.
Thanks.
