After Market Columbus Replacement

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

Does anyone know of an after market replacement for the Columbus unit? I have a Skoda Superb Mk2 and the unit has packed up, so I am wondering if there's a replacement out there that retains ALL FUNCTIONALITY i.e steering wheel controls and full communication with the Maxidot (display radio stations, phone calls, and directions etc.) or would I have to fit another columbus in order to achieve this?

 

Many thanks..

To maintain all the functions you would need to replace with another Columbus. There are aftermarket units but not all maxidot features work. 

 

Best stick with a OEM unit. Speak to @Rustynuts

Thanks Chris,

 

I thought that'd be the case but thought it worth pursuing. I'm already in conversation with Rustynuts over this, hopefully my unit is repairable.. I'm sure I read somewhere that HDD can be replaced with SSD. This would be something I'd consider but probably way too complicated for the likes of me.

 

Anyhow, for now, I've got to figure out how to upload the pics of my units data label for Rustynuts..

 

Thanks for your advice.
