What part numbers have you used Nige?
So far I have identified these -
4L0 980 551 B Reversing Camera
4L0 980 553 Securing Arm, Reversing Camera
4L0 827 574 3FZ Grip Molding
N 909 159 01 Oval HEad Self Tapping Screw
3D0 971 830 F Bracket
1K0 937 545 M Bracket For Connector Housing
8P0 919 475 ? Control Unit for Parking Aid (Some people are using the R8 interface)
And I've listed some controllers, it's just a case of working out their functions -

I do know that 8K is an 8 sensor unit and likewise a 4K is a 4 sensor unit. I don't know what PLA is and I know that 8P0 919 475 F supports park assist.
Have a look at 8P 2011 in ETKA page 919-20 it shows part numbers & the order codes to the right next to them thats shown in the brochure, this will enable you to work out which module does what.
But, it also shows the D module as 7X2 compatible, so this will do OPS aswell IMHO, whether or not this is Front & Rear aswell, as I seem to recall this was maybe an older module with rear only, but need to confirm with others on here if they have this module.
I have the H module & the sensors 4H0919275A all round as per ETKA.
I have a quick question, I only have the rear parking sensors, can I buy the front parking sensors and connect it with the RNS-E so I can have an optical parking system?
In theory yes. You'd need the sensors, possibly a bumper or drill yours, the wiring and also a replacement parking controller. This is another part of the front sensor system which is an on/off switch in the car.
As per Stu has said, but you also will need possibly to rewire the BUS to the drivetrain instead of convenience along with possibly upgrading your gateway to suit, as module 10 wasnt available on older gateway modules, I now have the latest AD version which supports all latest modules.
Nige do you have a front & rear sensor setup or rear only? What parking controller do you have and what options does that have??
It's a pity that VCDS seems to be slipping behind a little at the moment with label files, I tried to code a Bluetooth interface the other day which wasn't supported. I have sent the details to Seb but as yet no reply.
I have fitted front & rear system as thats the only system that seems to support OPS (subject to checks of the D module) if you look at the 8P latest brochure, shows 7X2 as the order code for that system.
Re: RT, same position as always, emails sent but no replies, but see him replying to threads that have been resolved way before his input.
I have a 2010, with front and rear parking assist, with this rnse will I get full functionality or is there more?
That would depend on your pdc module fitted & possibly the sensors aswell, if this is the auto steering you have, then it may clash, TBC.
Meant to ask Nigel, any chance of some video footage when you have time
When I've 100% finished fitting yes mate
Stu, which module was it? I've got a 8P0 862 335 S (coding 0011422) fitted in mine. Hope this helps.
Well latest version is 8P1862335, wonder what this has added as its from 5/10.
John do you happen to know of a controller that will do only the rears but with Optical or Camera support?
The Bluetooth was the new 7P6 interface.
I only know that the D & H module will do OPS & the H is Front & Rear only, as if I have front disconnected it wont work at all, just beep once to signify a fault, when fronts are in then will work fine.
Must be a way to trick the pdc module into thinking the fronts are working ok & no obstacles.
Was that 7P6 on a VW?
Yeah I heard people were using the R8 interface but I was hoping to get an 8P one if possible.
Yes for the camera system they're using the R8 module but this isnt OPS like this system, it was a camera feed with lines.
If you want both then a VW car would be needed as not seen an Audi with the system like VW's have.
Got my hands on a 2010 rns-e and hopefully taking it to hazzydayz tomorrow to have vagcom'd.
I have slipped the unit in and there are a couple problems. OPS is not displayed and the audible alert is only emmiting a repeated high then low beep.
Hopefully will get this sorted tomorrow however Gareth at Hazzy's mentioned I might need to change a module - quoted at £150. I'm hoping not as my S3 has OEM Parking System Plus.
Any thoughts?
My 1st thought is dont goto Gareth.
Well unless you have scanned the car to see what faults are there & modules installed for the pdc, then cant really be specific, but sounds like needs coding properly as it wont just work out of the box, rns has to be coded for this to work & may take few hours to take hold as mine did, about 4-5 hours to be exact for modules to recognise system.
PDC Plus doesnt neccessarily mean yours is compat, you need to check the pdc module fitted & wiring may need changing.
I've got my cat now and I have this controller -
Address 10: Park/Steer Assist (J446) Labels: 8P0-919-475-7X1.clb
Part No SW: 8P0 919 475 G HW: 8P0 919 475
Component: PARKHILFE 4K H06 0120
Revision: 11001001
Coding: 000103
Shop #: WSC 06314 000 00000
VCID: 4280C0B564E4
Which as you can see is a 4 sensor but VCDS didn't seem to have any more coding info. I'll have to see what Ross Tech know about it.
G module is the 7X1 order code & isnt OPS, you'll need to upgrade IMHO.
Cheers Stu, I see you have repeatedly questioned what Parking Controller others have, lol.
Well I have repeatedly emailed & msn'd someone, but I also got no reply, maybe some who are asking for advice & help should bare this in mind next time when they are asking for advice/info IMHO!!!!!
Yeah, the reason I am interested is that so far as I know Optical is only offered with an 8 sensor setup and I only have rears. I don't really want the hassle of adding the fronts so I'm interested to know if the 4 sensor can be made to work with Optical or Camera.
.
If we can check the D pdc module then this may answer your query.
Thanks KKP. I had read that and hence my trying to get to the bottom of what works. I looking for something like this but for the 8P units -
As above.
