another question re voice activation & columbus

Featured Replies

My superb is enroute to my dealer :) built wk 42. I'm assuming that it will have the latest FW that will have the voice control option for columbus.

How does the dealer check this and enable this if it's present?

Not sure if this is a silly question, but I just want to make sure my dealer knows what to check:thumbup:

(I know the mic will need rerouting)

Thanks

The firmware currently available that supports this function is a beta version leaked from the production plant testing facility. Its not been officially released yet, so dont expect to find any voice recognition on your new car. Its also possible, that the feature maybe removed from the final released version.

Thanks mannyo. How do I check if my car has voice control?

It will have the latest official firmware but AFAIK, voice control (as found in 2664) is unnofficial/leaked/pirated?! Has anyone ever had it on Columbus straight off the production line?

Simple enough to do once you get the car though! ...download now in preparation :thumbup:

EDIT:

Damn... beaten by Manny! :P

My excuse - was searching to see if anyone had reported a new car/Columbus with Voice control! :D

Thanks Simbo99 my dealer said he had a disk with new FW on but he's not checked to see what it does. Is there an easy way to check the fw on my columus?

Also, if needed would you be willing to send a copy?

Thanks again:)

One day :(
