Today I fitted an rns315 but not got it working properly yet, put my new wheels on and changed the numberplate lights to led's.

Anyone else done the rns315 in an older mk5? Got a question or two.

Where did you buy the Rev G DV from? And how much for if you don't mind me asking. It's on my to do list.
Cheers.

Today my dash centre display has stopped working! Had someone try to code my rns315 but it won't show up as being there on vcds :-/. Display stopped working after the coding attempt could this be related?

Engine cover had developed a crack so removed it and tried to fix it with some mouldable glue, it's improved but not great. Cleaned the engine bag whilst I was at it


Washed the car and applied some gtechniq c4 to restore my faded grill


Clean pescaras after a refurb last month
