Just curious - anyone else's RNS get confused ?

Like I said Darren, it only happens once in a while so no real biggie for me really, I can live with it.

One more thing that is starting to bug me a little, is that more than occasionally, the MDI input resets it's input volume to minimum. If you hit the set up button, then select [MEDIA], there is an option for the AUX input level, LOW, MEDIUM AND MAX. I have it set to medium as it gives a nice punchy sound with good bass and zero distortion.

Sometimes when I get in , the Ipod sounds very quiet, and if I go into the setup menu, even though it still says MEDIUM, it's actually reset  itself to MINIMUM. this can be confrmed by actually selecting Minimum from the drop down list, the Volume Level doesn't change, but then selecting MEDIUM, the Ipod comes back up to the correct volume.

Maybe my RNS is haunted by JPC's presence as he didn't really want to get rid of his RNS  :grin:

On a more serius note, maybe all these issues are just due to the fact that I'm running an older firmware on my "B" uit (FW 1100). Perhaps I need to get some money laid down to replace the CAN Gateway with a later one (to avoid the battery drain issue) so that I can run that later firmware's that hopefully cure these issues ?

Rob do you or have you done the update for the MDI? There is a file on the VW website regards updating the mdi but will need to dig it out.

I don't know about the update, I've certainly not done it. It's Steve P's old unit. I'll PM him and ask him and let you know.

SteveP:
I never updated the unit so I would follow the instructions on the my-gti.com on how to do this  :happy2:

Ok - thanks for dropping in and answering :happy2:

Rob GTI:
Is this the best version to update:

Any ideas on how to do this without the USB interface on the MDI, as I've got the ipod lead, and the MDI is mounted behind the glovebox so can't easily exchange the leads in any case.
