Canbus gateway needed!
« on: February 27, 2013, 08:58:05 pm »
I've recently purchased an rcd510 and have been told i need a newer canbus (L or later apparently) so the unit will work properly.

If anyone could recommend someone who sells them I'd be grateful as I'm not keen on paying 'stealer' prices!

Cheers.

I'm only asking here but will he actually receive your PM if he's not got 10+ posts? I know you need 10+ posts to send a PM.

Scan your car with VCDS to get the part number or physically dig your way to it and see what the label states. You *might* have an L or above being a later 2007.

It's a diagnostic cable made by Ross Tech.
If you ever need one then loads and loads of members have them, as they are expensive (but worth it).
