Columbus firmware update without dealer?

[rhysperry111]

Is there any way to update the firmware without a dealer? All the dealers in my area say they're booked for a few weeks in advance, and I'm not patient enough for that 😛

 

There was a guide for upgrading Columbus firmware and maps, but all the sources listed on there seem to have gone/been taken down. Would you recommend finding stock firmware, or are there any cool third-party firmwares that I might want to look into?

 

Device part number: 3V0035020D

Hardware: H50

Software: 0924

Don't know how I missed that - seems like the perfect guide. Thanks for the help
