Steve, mine came with there's instructions, i just wondered if there's an easy way
Updates Etka 7 from build 710 to 731.
Step 1 - Unrar
Step 2 - Open ETKA7 Updates directory
Step 3 - You now have 4 folders that need to have the contents moved to
the proper directory.
Open & Move all files in each directory to the following paths.
Audi.Updates.711-731 -> C:etkaDATAAUUpdate
Seat.Updates.240-260 -> C:etkaDATASEUpdate
Skoda.Updates.246-266 -> C:etkaDATASKUpdate
VW.Updates.711-731 -> C:etkaDATASKUpdate
Step 4 - Now comes the part where you will sit through a bunch of update
installs. Please know in advance this will take aproximately about
30 minutes or more in time depending on your system and patience!
Once you start the first update it will continue to install each
update one after the other so be patient and install everything.
** The password you need to install is case sensitive so copy it
exactly as shown below and paste it each time the updates ask
you for it. IF THE SETUP PROGRAM STYLE CHANGES, THE PASSWORD
ALSO CHANGES.

Go to:
http://files.mytouareg.info/autoindex.php
They have all the updates for ETKA V7 and V7.1 The V7 updates are really up to date. Currently Version 740 from 12/2/09.
Note you will need to register (but it's free) to get access and also the password for the installation.
Just make sure that in the directory - ETKA/DATA/VW there is a folder called "UPDATE". This is where the update files from the above web site need to be copied. Upon restarting ETKA, it will see there is an update there and ask if you want to update. It really is as easy as that.

nice one, BUT my update folder has a temp folder there (thats empty), i assume i dont put the files in there ?
-
Hmm, just signed up and still cant download the files ?????, also what different with Etka 7.1 ?, and how do i get that as mine is saying version 7.0
-
Ok, managed to log in, got the files now :happy2:
-
My copy of ETKA downloads the updates straight from the VAG server! :D Unfortunately, I borrowed the CD from someone and didn't copy it.
I also have ETOS which covers VW, Audi, SEAT and Skoda, but thats at work and costs £20+VAT a month. They send us update discs monthly in that price. A bargain when you think about it!
-
Been running it on my vista'd netbook for ages without problems nothing special done to get it to work.

Many thanks for the link, I have been looking for those updates for ages :happy2:
-
Only issue I had was downloading all 150 ish updates seperately, they should do a whole download file For them all, now to install them all individually !!!
-
20 updates takes ages!!! and the worst part, you cant have them running in the background!!!

you wasnt hoping on going to bed tonight was you LOL, ps my version of etka doesnt have skoda or Seat on the first page ?, why is this LOL
-
Nor mine???
(PS - I have mine running on a Virtual Machine so can pause the process and pick-up where i left off in the morning :P)
-
Haha, glad the site worked for you guys.
Yeah, it's a real PITA doing all the updates seperately, but i don't yet know of another way to do it ?
182blue, wait until you get to the later updates, the model year now includes 2010 !!! :laugh:
-

(PS - I have mine running on a Virtual Machine so can pause the process and pick-up where i left off in the morning :P)
you need a file to fix that...
-
Cheers Dan, I have just found it :happy2:
-
For anyone hoping for trick stuff on the MK6 will be disappointed, I went through the whole catalogue yesterday and the only thing I want is MDI. I'd like a look at the RNS310 as well, to see what's not on it.
If you guys ever need help looking for anything, drop me a PM and I'll be glad to help. I spend my working hours using ETOS, so I know where everything is hidden now.
-
Finally finished my updates at 11.30pm :surprised:
-
^^^ I gave up at 11:00 as I had only reached 660, just restarted it now :indifferent: :indifferent: :indifferent:

i wish they would just run themselves !!!
-
That would be nice, I found a script program that was meant to do it but can't get it to work.
Have you tried the patch for adding Seat and Skoda in to ETKA?
-

nope, where is that, do you have it ?, the programs seem to be there, but theres no buttons to press to get them up, i had the Seat version ages back when i had the Cupra and that had all 4 on

Shaun if you have an external HDD to hand then just copy the etka file from the c: drive to the external hdd, then you can drag it from the external onto another pc/laptop this will keep all the updates you've done. This took me a couple of days to update all VW, Audi, SEAT and Skoda but worth it in the end just to compare prices through the vag range. Also if you go into the etka file and open the prog folder in there you will find 4 files ETKA_AU, ETKA_VW, ETKA_SK and ETKA_SE you need to page down to where you will see this:
[KONZERN]
firmen=VW,AU,SE,SK
defaultmarkt=RDW
firma=AU
The Firmen line will just have a single name in it you need it to look like the above, once you've done that Skoda and SEAT will be on the front page

Ok, got it all updated, i now have just this minute acquired version 7.2 etka, anyone know how to get updates for this ?
-
I've just acquired this version too, but it seems to have a number of gaps so I guess it needs updates. Anyone know where to get them and how to apply? From this thread i guess I'll need to write off a whole evening (or more)!
Thanks.

i dont know where to get updates for 7.2, although it is pretty upto date anyway, i also got version 7.0 and have all the updates for this
-

http://*********
7.2 is newer but not sure where to get updates, for updates 7.0 or 7.1 is easier , also ELSA is better if you just want to know how to dismantle things
-
Thanks. Where can I get ELSA from?

Hi guys .. to cut a long story short - had to set up a partition on my laptop to install xp, ended up overwriting vista :sick: took all day to sort out dual boot yesterday - NIGHTMARE OF ALL NIGHTMARES.
Anyway ETKA 7.0 is up and running - am having difficulty patching past 679 - am being told I need to upgrade to 7.1 ???? Any ideas ????
Regards,
Gareth
-
Just located update from 597 on net - sorry guys !
Regards,
Gareth
-
Gareth why did you install xp? im running Etka 7.0-740 with Vista just fine, infact im running it on an Acer aspire one 150 netbook apart from having to ajust the screen size in Etka every time I start it every thing is fine.
For every one else...just found out the prices are way out on the updates, I needed a part for the arm rest the bit that goes just under and behind the fabric/leather cover my Etka update 740 says £6.55 went to dealer and they charged £17.60 :scared: :sad:

-
i dont know about anybody else, but i never use etka for pricing. mines in euros too i think with 16% TAX for germany. is it me thats doing it wrong or does everyone else get accurate prices from etka?
-
Can anyone with ETKA help me out? I was wondering if the mk5 golf seat supports( the raised bits that the seat runners bolt to) have part no's. Its a long shot but I am trying to find something to fit into my mkII for the gti seats.
-
Any of these parts ?

Thanks mate, see the bolt numbered 31. Its the bit that would bolt onto, so the bolt goes thru the runner then into the bit i want if that makes sense? :happy2:

Right guys, can't patch past build 678, I have downloaded the patches via torrent as far as 731 but I cannot patch any further. When doing it manualy it states Windows cannot find "winupd.exe", and then "could not execute the external program \winupd.exe! ?? tried running it in background and then clicking update file to no avail. Initially when downloading manually it did say I needed v7.1 to patch past 678 ??? So confused ......
