    Hi,
    I would advise you give a few more details about your car especially the year model .... Does it have the full sized MFD or only half size ? If it only has the half sized MFD then you could have a few issues, not only with trying to get the song titles etc... to show but chances are if it is only a half sized display then you could also find that you will have the battery drain issue and will either need to change the head unit or change the CANBUS. Not trying to cause you any undue worries but without knowing a few more details about the car it's pretty much impossible to know exactly what's happening. If you do have the later CANBUS and the full sized MFD then the chances are you will need someone with VAGCOM to make suitable adjustments to enable the functions, failing this you'll have to take it to a VW dealer and get them to look at it for you.

    Didn't you check to see if it had Australian and New zealand maps , the best thing you can do is get in touch with the seller and explain your predicament if your lucky they might send you the correct maps, they should of realized that they were posting it to Australia it just might be their mistake and they might correct it

    Best bet is go to your dealer or wait for a friendly melbourne member
    Dealer will just do the code for the rns and if you beg they should allow you to borrow their map disk to load while your car is there.All up about 5-10mins only.
    Alternatively you can buy the disc from a business for a few bucks but i can't remember the link.Search the forum here or in mytiguan.com as i am pretty sure i read it in either of these forums about 2-3 months ago. Goodluck

    Also check your canbus number incase you need a canbus adaptor to avoid battery drain.A few more dollars 40-80 I think from what i have read.I guess if you have not had any issues so far you are safe as it should become self evident in 2-3days

    Hi Marko91,

    I can help with the coding as long as you have the right codes!!

    I have VCDS with Micro-CAN interface and will be in traveling through Knox on my way to Warrandyte this Saturday afternoon, happy to swing by and give it a shot!!

    But, sorry I can't help you with the maps, as I don't have a CD..

    I've been looking for a Aus map download for a while, but no luck so far, but most dealers are pretty good about letting you use theirs (at a small cost)
