SteveP:
What file extension did the update image have?

The one I used had a .nrg image file whihc had to be burnt to a CD via Nero to get it to work.  :smiley:

I knew there was a chance of bricking the unit as some 'A' versions like mine have mainboards which can be fried during the upgrade, got as far as updating the gateway and hit the infamous '10% gateway Error 202', unit is now buggerred lol!

Imo, unless you are trying to cure any bugs the existing unit has (mine was randomly asking for the code and not auto restarting the nav route after the ignition was off), then i'd not bother lol

Off to find a new unit on ebay....  :sad1:

The file I downloaded is called "rns510fw1100.rar" and is about 228MB in size, this was from the my-gti.com siteusing the nrg version download link.  So it does not have the .nrg extension  :confused:  How do I get the .nrg file? 

Also I don't have Nero, is this a problem?  I can burn to disc using Roxio.
