BEFORE START
Caution: Use this guide at your own risk, we are not responsible
Important: Connect your car with a battery charger or leave the engine running

Important: Some users report problems when copying files from Mac OS / Linux,
Its better if you use Windows for all file copy process. You can use a virtual
machine for that.

We recommend: Backup your old FSC using FSC Backup script.

We recommend: Read the complete guide before the start, recheck all the steps
and do it carefully.

THIS MEANS A PHYSICAL BUTTON > A button that you can touch with your hands
THIS IS A GREEN MENU ITEM > It indicates the path in the hidden menu

WHAT YOU NEED

Firmware files
Map files
Activation script
A quality SD, Class 10 for faster (and safer) file operations.
(Optional) VagCom cable or similar

UPDATING FIRMWARE
Format your SD in FAT32.
Copy the root of your firmware in the SD (like picture below)

and dont know how to recode it we recommend that you unselect it from list
(using User-Defined Mode) before update.

Scroll to bottom and press Start Update

After several minutes/hours (it depends that what it has to update and the speed of your
SD) the firmware update will be done
Select the Abort documentation and the MMI will reboot

UPDATING THE MAP


Optional: Removing the old map is optional. However, is highly recommendable.
Benefits are:

Avoid the not removable Fault Code 03175 - Invalid Data Set error
Avoid errors while copying the map (out of size, slow write speed)
There are no files of the old map into the new map

Open Green Menu (Press CAR and MENU and hold it)

ACTIVATING THE MAP


Caution: Do NOT insert the SD until MMI has fully booted you can brick your
unit!
Caution: Please double check that youre using the correct activator for your
firmware, using incorrect activator will result in a bricked (dead) MMI unit

Caution: If you already have an activator installed (like Carsons Patch) DONT
apply another activator. Youll need to clean your firmware before doing an
emergency update or just inject the FSC using FSC injector. Multiple activators
will lead to a bricked (dead) MMI unit

Format your SD in FAT32.


Copy the root of your activation in the SD (like picture below)

Make sure that MMI is fully booted (press all buttons once RADIO CAR NAV MEDIA TEL).
Wait until all options are ok (no options in gray) even when all options are ok wait a
minute more.
Is the moment for insert the SD in slot 1.
Dont touch anything
After a few seconds a screen will pop up, press any key (we suggest the big knob) once

15

Dont touch anything again (the script are copying files and doing stuff)
After some seconds/minutes the script will finish and another screen will appear.

Remove the SD before doing anything

21

EMERGENCY UPDATE (AND OPTIONAL REGION CHANGE)


Emergency update is useful if you have an activator installed (like Carsons patch) and you
want to update your firmware or install another patch without problems.
We recommend: Do the emergency update with the same firmware that are
currently installed.
Open Green Menu (Press CAR and MENU and hold it)
Important: This step are only required if you need to change the region of your
car (e.g. USA->Europe)
Go to system/internal
Change internal region code to "Rest of the world" and press return

Important: This step are only required if you need to change the region of your
car (USA->Europe e.g.)
Go to swdl and tick ignore region and variant

22

Format your SD in FAT32.


Copy the root of your firmware in the SD (like picture below)

Insert your new firmware update into the MMI unit slot SD1
Go to system and press emergency update, and then click Yes

23

MMI will now reboot and enter into Emergency Update mode.

Important: The deletion and programming processes are performed several


times, until all components of the MMI have been updated. Wait until the
programming process is finished and the system automatically restarts. Your
input is not necessary. The flash tool will begin deleting all the existing flash
information in this step.

24

Once the above step is completed the programming screen will appear
Important: No input is necessary from you, the update tool will perform
everything automatically.

Some users reported that EmergencyUpdate only install a few (basic) functions on your
MMI, while other functions (like Google Maps) are not installed.
Once the MMI emergency update is completed, you will need to re-install your firmware
as normal using the procedure showed in this manual for install all secondary functions.

25

REMOVE VIN NUMBER IN MMI MENU


Open Green Menu (Press CAR and MENU and hold it)
Go to car/carextdevicelist
Uncheck VIN

Go back (click in )
Go to car/carmenuoperation
Scroll down to VIN and set VIN value to 0

26

Exit from Green Menu with the CAR button.


Reboot your MMI using the 3 button

27

REMOVE ERROR 03276 PLEASE CHECK SOFTWARE


VERSION MANAGEMENT
Open VCDS and inside Select Control Module click on Select button

Select module 5F

Click on Adaption 10

28

Enter 15 for the channel and press the Read button

Copy the number in Count field

Using a scientific calculator make the next formula:


29

YourCountNumber ^ 51666
Or
YourCountNumber XOR 51666
You can also use the calculator in
http://www.audienthusiasts.com/Application_SVMError.html
Now enter the result into the New Value field and click Test and Save
Note that only Save may be available in which case you would ignore the Test button

Exit Adaptations and return to the main screen (Click Done, Go Back)
Click Fault Codes 02

30

If you see any Faults click Clear Codes 05 then Done, Go Back

Now check Fault Codes one more time and the SVM error should be gone. If not, repeat
the steps again.
In the event you go to Channel 15 and there is no Count value, clear your errors and then
go back recheck. Sometimes the count will not be present until the error is cleared. Of
course the error will return until you complete all the above steps again.

31

USER DEFINED UPDATE


Sometimes things go wrong and maybe the update is not completed. When this happen
you can use the User Defined mode for make a manual selection of what upgrade or
install.
This is also useful for some Bose audio users that want to update all functions in MMI
except Bose modules (Bose updating sometimes will trigger component protection and
you will need to recode the unit).
For enable this mode:
Open Green Menu (Press CAR and MENU and hold it)
Go to swdl and tick user defined mode

Don't reboot, just exit with any button (I usually use RADIO)
Proceed with firmware-upgrade as normal.
When the update starts, you can select User Defined instead of Standard

32

And now you can select every module manually.
