  • Firmware upgrade for rns 510 - 2760

    Hi All,

    Thought I'd just let everyone know, just in case anyone was thinking about updating their firmware, that I updated my RNS 510 to version 2760 from:

    Volkswagen RNS 510 Firmware Upgrade to version 2760 / 2762 / 2764 / 2766 / 2768 | my-gti.com

    No issues and I am using V3 maps and I am able to use SDHC cards (the main reason why I updated the firmware).

    Cheers.

    Hi l3lazin.

    Hope you can help with a few questions, I want to do the same upgrade.
    - What Model year is your VW ?
    - do you know your RNS 510's version of Hardware and firmware before the upgrade ?
    - Did you lose any music or your maps ?
    - Did you have to reprogram the steering wheel controls after the upgrade ?

    And lastly, did any of these work for you after the upgrade ?
    - digital speed display on MFD
    - Speed limit display on map
    - shows clock when switched off
    - dual zone controller Climatronic control
    - Faster Startup
    - SDHC 32 GB Support


    a bunch of questions, I am just a little cautious before doing the upgrade.

      Hi spanky,

      Sorry mate, haven't checked the forums in a while, I will try and answer your questions the best I can, to the experience that I have with it:
      Hope you can help with a few questions, I want to do the same upgrade.
      - What Model year is your VW ?
      2009 MKV GTI (the last of its kind)
      - do you know your RNS 510's version of Hardware and firmware before the upgrade ?
      Nope, I winged it, at work now but when I get home, I will post you the firmware and hardware versions, I was just banking on the fact that mine was the newest of the MKV.
      - Did you lose any music or your maps ?
      NOPE!, it was just a firmware upgrade
      - Did you have to reprogram the steering wheel controls after the upgrade ?
      NOPE!, no need to do that either.

      Also to note, after the upgrade, the unit doesn't know where it is, so go for a drive and it should find itself. If not then force the restart by holding the 3 buttons, and you should be good to go!

      And lastly, did any of these work for you after the upgrade ?
      - digital speed display on MFD
      Nope. Never did work.
      - Speed limit display on map
      Nope. Never did work.
      - shows clock when switched off
      Nope. Never did work.
      - dual zone controller Climatronic control
      Not sure what you mean, but mine are controlled by the dials.
      - Faster Startup
      Not really.
      - SDHC 32 GB Support
      YES. This is the big draw card for me!, 32GB support!, one thing is, that after I turn off the car and come back, I get a SD CARD read error. I just have to push out the card and back in, and its happy again.

        Time display on after upgrade

        Hi
        After my upgrade I was able to see the clock when the unit was off. You need to change the settings:

        Setup->time display-> on
