Well I finally got the rns e in and working today...felt good going to work...felt like the inside of a different car....lol

At present I have the rns e working in so much as it plays music from the sd cards, the sat nav works and the screen lights up with the lights and starts when I turn the ignition.

I don't have DIS working, but to be honest I m not missing it as much as I thought I would.....but thats would be a big project in itself...maybe one day....

I still have to integrate the bluetooth....stuck on the vag com coding at present...as it isnt quite integrating fully as yet.

I am half happy at present, but once I have the bluetooth working then I will be very happy indeed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shown below are pics of the rns e, and also I included a picture of where the mirror memory control module lives as this where I got the reverse wire feed from....pin 3 red/blue wire.....this was easier than connecting to the reverse light wire at the back of the car....

Nice one Ranj, why have you got Bruno Mars on your SD card? Going to delete that next time I get in the car.

Cable routed into boot under the rubber lip seal - dead easy as long as you go sideways.
Here's a picture showing "dead" original and it's excellent near-invisible replacement:

Is the OEM GPS aerial housing hollow? Or if not, you could take it apart, hollow it out and fit your aftermarket receiver in it. So the GPS receiver houses the aftermarket item.

Just looks more OEM.

First thing I thought of doing, but having taken it off and dismantled it, it soon became obvious that wasn't practical.
I can't recall now exactly why as it was some years ago (I'm on my 2nd replacement aerial now), but basically Audi designed something that really was virtually impossible to hack about.

I'm not unhappy about the solution, in reality you just don't notice it.

finally got the bluetooth working...but no contacts for now
 
Well I finally got everything back together today. This hasnt been the case since I have owned the car, which well over a year and half.

I had a good look online last night at how to code the bluetooth module....and i came up with the following bits of code::

module 77 0000522

adaptation values 133 - 1, 134 - 0, 135 - 1234

128 - 3
129 - 0
131 - 4

Module 37 0509753

9 told the rns e I had bose
7 eu module

I cant remember the logic behind the other values, but will post more information on these soon.

After doing the above, I came out of vagcom.

Turned off the engine.
Restarted the engine.
When the rns e came on went to the telephone screen...which told me telephone not connected.
Then promptly reset the rns e by holding down the radio and setup keys down for about 10 seconds until the screen went blank and came back on again.

Now when ever I start the car the phone connect with the rns e via bluetooth.

Contacts havent download as yet...but this is a software issue which I will deal with later....

Now this was working I went on to position the microphone.

Luckily the the microphone wire was long enough to feed from the boot of the car. where the bluetooth module sits, to the front of the car. I placed the microphone next to the sunroof switch behind the plastic cover for sunroof motor...as there were some vent type holes which seemed perfect.

I fed the microphone wire along the passenger side, up the B Pillar, Under the headlining and fed it through to this position. I have included some pics below of this process of how i got the headlining bits off.

The main points are:

1. Screw out coat hook
2. Remove door handle and top on passenger side
3.Now headlining can be pull away as it is only held in by clips
4.Remove cover for lights on the sunroof motor cover
5.Undo the two philips holding the cover in place and slide it forward and down to release

Top notch work there, this car must be a keeper then, if the gearbox etc goes you will have to replace it consdering how much you've spent. Must be the most pampered no expense spared pre facelift around even if it has got the odd battlescar on the bodywork but consdering you do 40k miles a year in it that isn't a surprise. +++
