It was working when I posted it back in 2019.

I found this post in tdiclub by a member who's offering it.

Try PM'ing him.
thank you!

Glad you got it sorted. Any specific tips for future adventurers? Sharing is caring!

For reference, this thread (use Google Translate) seems to have all the 5238 goodies you could ever want, available for free download.

Hi, yes the firmware should resolve this assuming the amp isn't damaged.
Please send me an email and I can help.

I have all of the RNS-510 firmware updates. You can download the appropriate version for your unit from my server or I can mail the disc out to you. I can help you determine the correct version for your unit if you're unsure.

I also have the most current NAV update V.12M (version is 8534) and this is good for any RNS510 unit, it doesn't matter which firmware version you're running or how old your unit is.

I do also have the VIM hack also but you can get that from a number of sites anyways. It's free if you want it.

Message me if you're looking for any updates or have any RNS510 issues. There hasn't been a unit I couldn't assist with to date.
do you still have the firmware? i think the latest is 5382.

Just a quick reminder to anyone experiencing bootup issues, random reboots, distorted Fender bootup image, wonky Bluetooth connectivity, slow backup camera, etc. I can assist if you reach out to me via email. I don't always receive message notifications in this forum for some reason.
Thank you!

Someone trying to get rich !

I can get this mailed to me on a CD/DVD for $ 30.00 from the USA. Did that 2 years ago and it came with a VIM disk with software which would let you watch videos while under way. The OEM will not allow video playing in motion.
To anyone still interested, I shared them on dropbox in another thread here:
https://forums.tdiclub.com/index.ph...-update-sw-v4366-download.498454/post-5817093

Money would be nice (LOL), but honestly, I don't want anyone's money. I didn't pay for these, and neither should y'all.

And if you read through that page, it specifies it is NOT for North American RNS-510 headunits. More than likely, those firmware revisions just won't load. Worst case scenario, you'll brick your headunit.

For some reason I don't always get notified when there's a new comment added in this thread, as is the case in this instance, I wasn't notified I just happened to see it today when searching the forum.
Thank you

Fair enough, here is the part from VW to order for the NAR 5382 update disc:

5N0919360BCDROM





And the V12M maps are 7L6919859, available for around the same price: https://www.ebay.com/p/1922081286



Alternatively I'd give it another year or two before someone finally posts free dumps online.

Hi, I need 5382 firmware for VW 3C0 035 684 Q HW: H27 SW: 5378 , please share the link, thanks!! mantas.puskorius@gmail.com
I bought it on ebay and I've been too lazy to create an ISO for it, or rather, test it out first and then make an ISO. But I'd stick it on here for free. No need to email me (I don't want your money).

I’m in the GTA and looking for a copy. Problem is I can’t get past my frozen screen to determine what my software version is. Any suggestions?

Hi all, I have been searching for a fix for my car stereo and just signed up....I too am suddenly having problems with my 15 TDI stereo w/NAV (Canadian) caught in a reboot loop...for me it starts up (the VW logo is messed up) and becomes unresponsive after about 15 seconds and continues to play the radio until it crashes and starts the cycle again. Ugh. This car is getting "old" and having trouble finding someone who can sell or provide the update. Details below if anyone is able to help:
HW: H04
SW: 5374
Model: 1K8035684

Thanks!

I have the same model and year and have been down this road a few times assisting others.
Just flip me an email to jayski 99 ATTTTTT Hotmail DOTTTTR com

Email address is split up to avoid any spam.

Also my favourite Ed the Sock comment was "Brittney Spears, she's seen more shaft than an elevator" hahaha.

Thank you
