Thanks, I will check that out -
The battery drain is becoming chronic, think I am going to have to rip the head unit out

VCDS Owners in Trafford / Manchester

Hi, Is there nobody who could please do this? The issue is becoming chronic, with the battery draining after 48 hours at most Thanks -
Thanks. It's an estate. Now I just need to find someone who knows what they are doing when it comes to VCDS, as the fella I went to didn't have a clue how to program the new unit, he told me it was incompatible
-
Thanks, I don't have the output from the old CAN Bus unit, but I do have the code that was generated, is that what I need to use to create the 3-byte one? Are there any online resources/guide for doing this. I'm beginning to think that the guy I went to had little idea what he was doing, at least not "outside the box"!
-
the issue is (I think) that the new unit 3 bytes and not 6 bytes like the original.

Are there any VCDS owners in the Trafford / Manchester area who could please help me with copying the settings from my existing CAM control unit to a new one? I've just had my fingers burnt with a local guy I found on ebay who told me my new unit was incompatible, but still charged me anyway. Thanks
-
Can anyone confirm that the can bus unit 7N0 907 530 AG should work with a 2006 plate please? The guy who tried to code it said the functionality was different and it said it was incompatible with the vehicle, but I'm a bit skeptical about his level of knowledge.
-
So, I got one of these, but the bloke I went to couldn't program it as it was reporting as incompatible with my car. He still charged me, so I'm £50 out of pockets, have to return this Cam unit, and still left with a chronic battery issue 😞

Cheers, I'm in Trafford, so a bit far
-
Can anyone in the Manchester area kindly do a quick VCDS mod in exchange for some kind of renumeration please?
-
Thanks. Sounds expensive

Long time since an update, but it would appear that I am experiencing the dreading "battery drain" issue, and will have to change the CAN BUS Gateway Control Unit. Would something like this do the trick, and how much programming / VCDS stuff will I have to do / have done? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Volkswagen-CAN-BUS-Gateway-Control-Unit-No-Battery-Drain-RNS510-RCD510-RNS315/163488190831?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908105057%26meid%3D57f2382690a94bd1a2a750c5d2073d7e%26pid%3D100675%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D15%26mehot%3Dnone%26sd%3D162888403807%26itm%3D163488190831%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2380057&_trksid=p2380057.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci%3A674eaaba-4761-11ea-9a81-74dbd180a863|parentrq%3A10c6c07d1700a4e8e0b6ec75ffec8e36|iid%3A1

Yes, the HU settings.

You mean connect it to a pc and check the settings? Anything in particular?
