Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • You're stuck without RDS unless you want to roll the dice and hope that 4120 doesn't kill your radio board.

        • What ssd did you go for? I had a hard time finding a ide ssd for a reasonable price. OCZ has something for older Macs but $$$

            • So I tried to roll the dice with 4120 but I get SWL Error. I have tried burning it again but same issue which I don't get with the older 3xx. I assume the radio wont allow it or the iso I have is no good....

                      • please confirm. You have a 1T0 035 680 B HW004 with radio board 0003, and its successfully running 5238? So no dab isn't a show stopper?

                        • Its not the no DAB that is the issue.
                          Older radio boards use a different flash chip which is more susceptible to premature death by flashing.

                          • Yes I can confirm that I have a 1T0 035 680 B HW004 with radio board 0003, and its successfully running 5238. It loaded fine and everything is working including RDS.

                              • I have a 2011 B7 Passat.
                                The RNS510 doesn't show in the secret menu its firmware version. Only shows the AM/FM radio manager settings. I don't have a cable to interrogate the computer so I'm guessing the only way I can see what firmware version the unit is sitting on is to open the thing up and look at the sticker.

                                Question though is, how? How do I get about getting at the unit? Is there a guide showing me potentially what tools I'll need which will let me get the covering surround off without damaging the clips so I can unscrew and look at the sticker?
