Thanks for your replies folks - Ive pinged a message into Dynamic Sounds as a starter - I know its gonna be a DIY job with the lockdown - but Im cool with that.
Looks like some fun to be had with connectors....seeing I have the BOSE speakers etc - will see what they say - if anyone has any other...
Hi,
recently acquired a 2010 A3 sportback (8P3), which has Bose speakers, but a standard concert head (no Bluetooth, DAB etc.)
im looking at options for changing out the head unit with something that will at very least offer DAB (yes, aware there will be antenna work) and hopefully hands free...
Being the person I am....I have emailed Aberdeen Audi service to ask what the update changed/improved.
Will let you all know when I get a response.
I did do a quick search on the net for any info on that update and all I got was a forum page in german - I dont speak german....but using...
Well - its only been two weeks so far - I cant say any real noticable performance improvements - the turbo might be kicking in a little earlier possibly - but that could just be me looking for something that isnt there.
The new version number is 23B9 (taken from my service note) - anyone know...
Just to say - car went in - all fine, they never even mentioned it!
They did a firmware update to the car, but I presume this has nothing to do with the rns e.
Cheers

Hi Folks,
I retrofitted my RNS-e soon after I got my A4 (about 9 months or so ago) - and the car is just starting to tell me its gonna need its first service soon (900 miles or 350 days as of today).
Anyway - I will be taking it to Aberdeen Audi (where I bought the car) and I just wondered -...
Yeah - Kind of knew that when I bought it (not going to expect it when you look at what I paid for it).
But had heard of some people who have had some success with them - so thought it was worth a try - Win some, loose some.
Nae sure if there is a dedicated forum for asking if anyone local...
My first car was a 3 door X reg (as in 1981/82 X) Austin Metro L! (996cc....oooh the power!!)
Need to have a hunt to see if I have any pics...it was class - My Gran bought it for me for £200 quid on my 16th birthday and me and my Dad spent the next year doing it up and restoring it with a view...
Hi mavala - sent you a pm with it.
I wanted to say though that it did arrive quickly (next day!) and was exactly as described etc....I think I was just unlucky and might have got a duff one! - Will let you know if I get it replaced.
Cheers

Cheers Dave - Sussed that out after I had a good look at the connectors - All in and working now - Just need to do the VAG COM bit now - although everything seems to be working DIS (guess I need to code it for NAV though??), Steering Wheel, GSM/Bluetooth.
Unfortunately I think my VAG COM (yes...
Thanks PetrolDave :thumbsup:
:sorry: I do appreciate your assistance - just trying to be careful so not to fry my car a month after getting it
So out with the wire cutters then - fingers crossed!
Cheers Again

Hi Again,
Been doing a bit further digging - whipped out my concert II+ and its pin outs are exactly as is shown here
Looking at these there is no obvious mention of a "K-Line" on connector B(apart from Connector C there is a "K-LTG" on pin 7 ????)
On the RNS-E there is the following pin...
Is that a definite for the b7 a4?
Dont think I have bose (guessing the speakers would have a bose logo on them if I did)?
going to be doing it tonight (my HEX CAN VAGCOM arrived this morning....is there wire cutting involved - had a look and all the connectors are the same no need for the...
Thanks for the quick reply Isaac
Managed to get a quiet moment in the office so have done a bit further digging this afternoon - looks like Im sorted.
Still a little nervous about the VAG COM stuff though - Ive bought a VAG COM connector (and software) from ebay so will see how I get on - I...
