I got into my R today and the main screen displayed the message 'Please insert software CD!' Looks like VWlippy found the ShopDAP thread with their cheap RNS-315. My RNS had the firmeware 0235 on it, so I make an update to 0351 with one moddified CD (KD01) and the normal 0351. By updating with the CD 0357 it makes a downgrade to 0235 again. By updating with the CD 0358 it makes a downgrade to 0236. I tried to moddify these CD's while deleting the 0235/ 0236 part.

If you own a Volkswagen with an in-built GPS navigation system then you might be feeling the frustration of finding that the maps are not as reliable as they once were. The reason being is that the maps themselves are loaded onto the system, typically via a DVD, CD, or SD Card. Having to update the maps can be expensive. That’s why we offer you links and instructions on how to get a VW navigation DVD download. Click the link below to get started.

VW Navigation CD: Free Download

Rns 315 Update

If you are looking to download maps for free at GPS Bites then we are sorry to disappoint you, as we don’t physically hold or store any files on our website. What we do instead is link you through to the best place that we have found online where it’s possible to get new VW navigation DVD downloads, or to buy the actual CD itself.

To see if that’s currently possible please click the link towards the top of this page.

VW Navigation DVD Download – How it Works

We are not able to offer you any advice on our website on how to actually download VW navigation maps on DVD or CD, because we are partners of the official map supplier. We do not condone any illegal activity so instead offer you a route into getting an official DVD map update instead.

One word of warning: if you do decide to install a VW navigation update download which is not official or that you have not purchased yourself then you could possibly damage your in-built navigation system.

That’s because hacked software or hacked map downloads can be corrupt. This could mean that you actually end up spending more money in the long-term, especially if you end up having to visit a Volkswagen dealer for them to repair your GPS.

Not only that, but hacked VW navigation CD free downloads could possibly also come with a nasty surprise: malware, or viruses. We have heard of many VW drivers you have ended up not just messing up their in-car GPS navi system, but also their PC or Mac. Is that really a risk you wish to take?

We always recommend installing legitimate map updates, and the following models are available should you wish to buy an official version DVD, rather than download a torrent copy of the DVD, CD, or disc. Those Volkswagen models are as follows:

• Beetle
• CC
• Eos
• eGolf
• Golf
• GTI
• Jetta
• Passat
• Phaeton
• R32
• Routan
• Tiguan
• Touareg

Keep Legal and Safe: Don’t Use Torrent Websites

Thank you for visiting GPS Bites, we hope that you understand how we cannot possibly legitimately link you to downloadable VW GPS maps as that is potentially illegal. Please drive safe and only ever use the official map updates discs that can be purchased annually online.

3. Select the destination folder;
4. Press the Build button, wait for the build to finish and then check the destination folder;
5. Copy the files from the destination folder to an SD Card (except for the XX_sd_to_hdd_fw.iso file);

Copy the maps from SD Card to RNS-510 unit

In this example we will copy the maps version V16, CD_8536 – Western Europe, 2018 maps from SD Card to your RNS-510 unit.

⚠ Make sure you meet the requirements before continuing

Step 1 - On your computer

1. Start MapsTool, select a valid maps ISO (in the Maps Info tab you can check the selected maps details). In this step we assume that the selected file name is CD_8536.iso (can be any name, this is just an example);

2. Select the destination folder.

   ⚠ You can select directly the SD Card but in this case, please note that the build process might take a lot longer, depending on the SD Card speed;

3. Press Build button and wait for the build process to finish;

4. When the build is complete, you will find in the destination folder the following folders and files:

   Item	Type	Info
   MAPS	folder	Contains maps index file hddfiles.log
   MAPSDVD	folder	Full maps content
   welcome.mp3	file	Test sound file
   EU_sd_to_hdd_fw.iso	file	MapsTool firmware image

5. Copy MAPS, MAPSDVD and welcome.mp3 to your SD Card. If at previous step 2 you have selected the SD Card as the destination, you can skip this step;

6. Insert a blank CD/DVD and burn the EU_sd_to_hdd_fw.iso ISO using the slowest burn speed available (recommended 2x speed and Track-at-Once method).

Take the SD Card and the MapsTool firmware CD/DVD to your vehicle.

Step 2 - On the RNS-510 unit of your car

⚠ Make sure the engine is OFF and the key is NOT in the ignition

1. Power on the unit and insert the SD Card into it. Make sure you can hear the short welcome.mp3 playing – that means the SD Card is OK;

2. Restart the unit in Software Upgrade Mode by pressing SETUP + EJECT + MIC (INFO) buttons;

3. Wait ~20 seconds and insert the burned firmware CD/DVD – EU_sd_to_hdd_fw.iso – into the RNS-510 unit;

4. The unit will restart and will display a message about the upgrade/copy process. Confirm upgrade and wait;

5. The unit will start to copy the maps from the SD Card to the HDD. Usually this takes ~60 min;

   ℹ The copy process displays all the time 31% complete, so don’t panic, just wait ~60 min. If something goes wrong, see the troubleshooting section.

6. When the copy is complete, the unit will restart and display a success message. After that, it will eject the firmware DVD and the new maps will be available on your unit;

7. Make a small donation to show your appreciation for the tool and support further development (optional).
