RNS510 - 4020 Firmware Performance Increase?
« on: October 06, 2012, 09:51:43 pm »
Hi all, Can anyone tell me if there is a performance increase upgrading from firmware 3810 to 4020?

I have a Version C RNS 510 which is now Version D after the 3810 firmware update. Will be upgrading to V8 maps soon.

Did you download the 4120 from www.my-gti.com?

Also for anyone who has upgraded to 4020, has new destination option been disabled as you drive?

Doing some research I find people have trouble with this firmware where there finding no POI's being uploaded. Does anyone have the right 4020 firmware for EU RNS 510 C?

I'm running 4024 as I'm on a Skoda RNS (Columbus).

POI's work correctly. Not sure about new destination though.
