My March 07 built Jetta (K gateway) has been fine too.

One thing I did find that while the modified firmware didn't cause battery drain on my Mk5 (with ver E gateway) it won't work with the Rear Camera so updated it to a AD and all it good  :happy2:

However i had a Mar 2007 car previously and i never suffered battery drain. It depends on when your car was built and if it is a MY2007 car or a MY2006 that was just registered in Mar 2007. Hopefully you will be lucky and it will be fine  :happy2:

Well fingers crossed! It shows as a 2007 car on the VIN no..

Thanks Carl and Steve

I meant to add my update to this post... The local VW dealer (Benfiled Newcastle) did me proud in the end... on the last day of warranty they gave me a new Sat Nav unit, replaced a couple of faulty units with the Immobiliser and a few other minor points...

Regarding the Sat Nav... they told me the HDD was corrupt hence why it appeared to have 0 memory and why the only means of using the Nav was to have the NAv disc permenantly in the player... anyway all is good now... I appear to have a working unit... my only small gripe is that I can only still use memory cards with a maximum of 2GB... I've decided that I will not mess with the firmware anymore and just get on with driving the car...

Lesson Learnt  :happy2:

Hi all,
My first post :-)

I've got a Sept 2007 GT Sport Tdi 170 that was fitted with a rnc310.

I've since fitted a rns510B firmware 1120, v7 maps. No battery issue.

I really want 6 digit postcode search and so I have upgraded sw to josi 2270 battery drain fix.

My first question is, how can I tell if I will suffer from the battery drainproblem or not?

Second question is, would I be better off installing sw 1300 instead and are there any issues downgrading firmware?

All the best

John

On a Sept 07 car you shouldn't have any issues  :happy2:
