SW for MIB1 Head Unit

Dec 30, 2021

Hi, I recently purchased a used 2014 Seat Leon FR (1.4 manual, 3 doors) and I noticed that the head unit lacks a lot of features ( i.e. the menus are missing a lot of options, ESC and ECO menus are throwing a "Function not available" error, etc.).

Now I did my research and figured out that I have a MIB1 media system, and I am pretty sure that I do not have the tech pack / plus version of it. However, I also figured out that Seat probably released a software update as I saw people mention here that their MIB1 systems are on version 0480 while mine is on 0148.

I was wondering if there is any information available online about the process of upgrading the software of the head unit to a newer version, or if it is possible to replace it with another more feature-packed version of the MIB1 system.

Part Number: 5F0035869B
HV: 180
SV: 0148
BV: C840

Just to clarify, I am not looking to replace my MIB1 system with a MIB2 one. From what I understand it is too complicated and not worth my time or money.
