I have a 2012 Touareg equipped with RNS850. I bought the car when working abroad in Abu Dhabi UAE as new. Now I returned to Europe and thought it is straight forward to install Europe maps to my navigation but it looks like it is not!
Comment what I got from VW dealer is following:
Touareg / RNS 850 was „blocked“ for continental use and cards, which means – no you cannot upgrade this AGCC-car with European maps at all.
This was state-of-technology with RNS 850 and most Audi-MMI-units (which the RNS 850 bases onto).
Apologies, but this AGCC-sat-nav-unit cannot be used in Europe, and it cannot be changed against an European one as well
Any idea what to do? Is it really so you cannot do anything?
Can you replace the whole unit with some aftermarket unit?
Thanks // Jari
