Hi to all,
Firmware is beta but we are at this moment depuring it.
Next week will be available for all PF03 users, and for old users that bought PF03 for RED cluster too (totally compatible)

Why don't they develop an Audi version :fighting:

This update looks very promising but for the first time I'm going to delay updating till I see more feedback about possible bugs.

This one?

Yup that's the one.
Just noticed how much more expensive it is now compared with at the end of last year.
-
Not sure if anyone else has tried it but I just updated to the latest version as some of the new things listed sounded quite good. I found this update didn't work with the red MFD. The most recent update for this is 2.7 which from what I can gather just adds a few more parameters.
-
A few folk on the polar forum have reported issues with this update on red colour display hence my reluctance to update atm.
-
Just seen this notice from the moderator on the polar forum:
IMPORTANT : This update is only for clusters with WHITE and COLOR (Mk6)
IMPORTANT : If you have RED cluster, you not need to install it.

Hi to all,
Will try to clarify some doubts asked here :)
AUDI SUPPORT
We will start to work in AUDI cars in 1-2 weeks, so is very possible next big update will be added this brand.
Our idea was start with RED CLUSTER (totally supported), now we added WHITE and COLOR CLUSTER (beta was launch this week)
The next platform updated will be AUDI (as i know exists 2 kinds of FIS displays, we will go step by step)
Users who have this product, simply need flash with the correct firmware for his vehicle, you not need any extra cable or hardware.
And upgrade process takes 1 minute with Internet Explorer and a good internet connection (all is made via usb cable)
FIRMWARE V030b1 UPDATE
This firmware has been launched exclusive for WHITE and COLOR clusters.
If you have a RED CLUSTER car, you must keep in 027 version.
Now exists 2 different firmwares in support and i clearified in the name of firmwares (take a look)
Firmware for cars with RED FIS
[PF03]FIS_Adv_v0.2.7(Red_dot)(EN_ES_DE_CZ_FR_IT_PT_DA_RU_SL)
Firmware for cars with WHITE FIS and COLOR FIS
[PF03]FIS_Adv_v0.3.0b1(White_Color_dot)(EN_ES_DE_CZ_FR_IT_PT_DA_RU_SL)
In few days we will update with some nice features for RED FIS cluster.
- Chronometers (for measure of speed 0 to 100, racing, best laps, etc ...)
- Multidesktop support (configure from 0 to 10 virtual desktops)
- And more interesting things ...
With best regards,

Is there a UK stockist for these. I'm after a Polar Fis+ Advanced for Red cluster?

Richn83 on here used to be the UK stockist but I think that he no longer deals with them.
afaik there is no hardware difference between the Polar Fis+ Advanced units, just the firmware used depending on what platform you're using.
Just buy it on line from here http://www.polarteam.net/en/65-polar-fis-advanced.html

^^^^ cheers for that, have all that info but thank you anyway. Looks like i will be getting one from abroad and shipped here.

You are right, hardware is the same.
You simply must choose correct firmware for use with your car.
RED FIS : [PF03]FIS_Adv_v0.2.7(Red_dot)(EN_ES_DE_CZ_FR_IT_PT_DA_RU_SL)

Wendigo,
I am running a 2012 Skoda Octavia VRA with the white display - I am guessing that this is the same as the Mk6 Golf GTI display. Can you confirm that this is true and that the same functionality is there please?
Thanks :happy2:

It will be Dave. PF03 with the firmware from above. :happy2: :wink:

Thanks Ian...I think I have an idea for Santa! :star:
