Petition to VWA to enable TMC in next map update for RNS510/Columbus

[Idle]

Thank you I will correct the speeling when I can.
As I mentioned in the post this isn't about a discussion of Suna's product. Lets leave that for when we can sample it for ourselves like we should be able to...

What I meant was that in Australia Telematics are implementing the SUNA system, and it seems to be all too often far behind actual traffic events, so you wind up in the same traffic jam whether you have it or not.

It seems the Euro and US systems are much more efficient.

I'll still sign the petition, tho' — and best of luck (IMHO you'll need it...)

Hey kamold,

Signed the petition no problem. Good luck with this - hope it works. If it doesn't the only other option would be to obtain that mythical CD_7703...

I have a tmc tick box but don't get info for anything due to my location. My local stations don't even transmit the normal text of the city stations. Currently, I have fw5218 and coded the DVD to region 0 with some expensive hardware and software I bought.

So what I am trying to say is, does anyone in the cities have the 5218 firmware that can clarify if it does or doesn't work for station ID, current song selection and TMC.

Tmc is only for traffic info. We could only receive it if vw had licensed the correct decryption key from Suna.

Rds displays song and station info.
This is available and working with firmware 4120 and above. This is not encrypted so works for any station that transmits this data.

Signed - thanks kamold!

Signed, this has been going on for way to long. You might have more chance now whilst everything is going on around them, recall for DSG, non recall for TDI, recall for T5 etc and I gather they do not want anymore negative customer impressions.

I had TMC on my old Eclipse head unit, whilst not always 100% accurate it was handy to get some idea of traffic conditions.

Some information is surely better than none.

Personally I always use Google maps with traffic overlay and find that to be accurate to the minute.

But just to read any warnings for the metro area could help to make a decision to choose a different route.
