An even newer version of US Firmware has come out in January 2010, version HW:1000.
All new units available come with this firmware and HW:04 and support the updates listed below.

In late October, 2009, VW released a new production version of the US spec RNS-510 (3C0-035-684C) that offers some improvements over previous versions. The hardware has been updated to HW:04 and the firmware has been updated to SW:0980. There are vast improvements in this version versus the previous versions, mainly with the following (some are unconfirmed, so please bear with us if they’re not 100% accurate):

  • Improved overall performance, reduced “bugginess” and generally quicker to perform functions such as switching from one media source to another, locking in on HD and other radio stations is quicker.
  • Support for high capacity SD cards up to 32GB.
  • Voice recognition capability (http://www.my-gti.com/1234).
  • Video in motion activation
  • Support for HD Radio sub-channels
  • Display Off on extras tab
  • Climatronic control (if appropriately fitted)
  • Clock display if RNS 510 switched off
  • Excluded roads (under route options)
  • GPS coordinates entry
  • Additional adjustments for video
  • Display (OPS) and rear vehicle camera (RVC) at the same time
  • Larger RVC screen with transparent menus at the side
  • Speed limit display (shows the speed limit in the top right corner in map view)

This new section will help with educating, such as DIYs as well as introduce others to products and options for this RNS-510 Navigation system. While we would like to make this section universal for all products related to the RNS-510, we will focus on only those compatible with the North American versions.
