Unhappy MMI Upgrade to 5570

Hi All,

Firstly sorry because I know this info is on here somewhere but I just want to make double sure I don't brick my system.

My car has 1110 software. I have genuine 4L0 998 961 CD's which I believe is 5570 or there abouts. Can I load this into my MMI or do I need to do it in steps
(3370 etc).

Advise greatly appreciated as I would hate to stuff it all.

Chris

You should be able to go direct, no need for the other version.

You can skip the second CD if you do not have a bluetooth phone kit.

Bump what Manny said.
I was a newbie (weren't we all once), grabbed the bullet and just went through the three CDs. I actually did each CD three times before passing on to the next one, but then I am well known for over engineering everything that I do. I don't have bluetooth so the second CD was not needed but I still did it three times even though each pass reported nothing to upgrade.
Cannot remember how long it took me but it was certainly a Saturday morning used up. But then I have a beautiful SWMBO (she is watching me type this) that kept bringing me cuppas.
The main thing not to forget, you must have some kind of power supply to the car. Some folk keep the engine running but I always use a battery charger. This is a good idea whenever you are doing something deep on these big girls.

Echo the power front, I did mine with the engine running. Took several hours to go through, so I made sure there was plenty of fuel as well.
