Canbus help :)
« on: December 30, 2012, 07:21:13 am »
I have the correct Canbus in my old car running the RCD510 but now I've bought a new car, 2005 GTI. The old gateway is coded for the old car which has different equipment inside. Will this work as a 'plug and play' or will I have to re code it!

You will need to edit the coding for the 2005 car unless both cars have identical hardware specs.

Haha! Yeah man! Is a mk5, was just hoping (as much as I'm sure I couldn't) that it would work! Haha
