VW 2011 Volkswagen Passat Sport sat nav

Kirium

Hi, I have a VW Passat Sport on order, it's arriving in approx 5 weeks. It's comes with the rns315 sat nav fitted, my question is can I put personal poi's on ? Namely speed cams ?

Any advice gratefully received, Matt

You can add them to a RNS 510, so I don't see why not.

It is a bit more involved than just copying some files though.

Best port of call is probably the vwnavi.com forums for specialist advice.

Have you tried the same method as for the RNS-510 and using POInspect0r and putting them on SD Card?

Hi, The short answer is no....

Depending on which software version you get you can't even navigate to a 7 digit postcode let alone put custom poi's on... I'm assuming the cars new so you'll probably have the lastest software (W031), in which case you will be able to use 7 Digit postcodes.

An interesting thread:

I still use my iPhone Navigon software and CamerAlert to take me to where I'm going and the RNS315 and CamerAlert to get me back... Glad I didn't pay for the VW unit.

Is this the same unit as the Skoda Amundsen?

If so, new software and maps have just been released on SD card. It appears the SD Cards are encrypted and are a one time use only.

I can't find anything anywhere about importing POIs for these though Crying or Very sad
