Fitted an updated Canbus today, a 2011 model from GTI Richard on the forum. Also fitted a Polar Fis+ too. The Fis is working well, but after going for a 15 mile drive I've noticed a few small issues.
I did disconnect the battery so not sure if that might have something to do with it or not. Hoping someone can confirm?
Rear Screen demists, but took 9 miles to do the whole screen and usually it is very quick. Seemed to start well and they hit a brick wall and stop almost.
Front Electric Windows seem to have a mind of their own.
Can't get rid of Can Gateway error on Vagcom, even though I have checked and double checked the Installation List and Coding. I have just put in an aftermarket radio though so could this be the problem?
Thanks

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/272503665758 hey mate I want to get my updated canbus coded and buy the radio in the link as it seems very cheap compared to the others on eBay but want to know it coding on vagcom for the canbus is hard and what is required to fit an updated canbus any help would be gladly appreciated :)

I was having similar issues so just put the original CAN Gateway back in. I only tried a newer one because everyone said you need it for an RNS510 to stop battery drain issues, but it's not true. Why did you need a newer gateway?

Same here.
It came with a radio that I was going to fit so thought I might as well.
Pretty sure I'm there now though as the only fault is the Telematics box and I've just put in a Polar Fis.
Horrendous job in a Manual car though. The clutch pedal couldn't be more in the way if it tried.
