All I know is the East York’s retrofit guy is top notch. Great bloke and very professional.
Got my eye on ACC and HBA at some point in the future from him
Just been talking to him too this evening. Seems a very nice guy, helpful and happy to answer questions.Having the seat sound system retrofitted by him using I assume vag can pro soon. He's done a lot of work for others so looking good.
Kieran can update your system. I have supplied him version 368.Just been talking to him too this evening. Seems a very nice guy, helpful and happy to answer questions.

Aren't you just the picture of joy and happiness! ? Just kidding you, good point though. OK so you've got me on this one, what is an svm update? And by reseting retrofits do you mean if I have configurations unlocked that weren't original? As they won't upgrade the firmware of the infotainment system to a newer version it seems a bit harsh that they might bother downgrading it back to factory. I'd be interested to hear what people's experience of this is, would seat care? I have a service plan so it's got 3 years off dealership visits.Only negative of these retrofits is if Seat plug into the car and do a SVM update it'll notice that the configuration mismatches with the factory held data and reset any retrofits. Just something to make sure Seat don't do if you use the dealership in future
The dealership does not know how to downgrade firmwareAren't you just the picture of joy and happiness! Just kidding you, good point though. OK so you've got me on this one, what is an svm update?

SVM = software version management. A trumpet can be set in the unit to say it's been messed with. You can reset the flag via a convoluted process that sometimes works. Works on the high, had less success on the standard.
Generally thought that dealers aren't bothered with SVM errors but obviously if there is a firmware update that is rolled out it will wipe out any specific firmware that you have. My experience when I first messed up the high units maps in my backend experiments is the dealer mechanics don't have a clue on the software front. They told me they phone a central number and are told what to do on ODIS. Front desk said re-install the map with the SD card (which I didn't have). That bit was right.... don't think they had the card either. Was told I had the most up-to-date maps by Seat Customer Services - wrong. Booked in for an appointment but sorted it out myself... learning curve.
I think it's really the FeCs that are the issue. If a retrofitter changes these to give additional functionality and they get reset back to what the car was shipped with then issues. Some retrofitters go into ODIS. Not sure whether that changes the blue print record or not, if it does, that's good. Some retrofitters don't have ODIS which can limit what they can do. One told me that, so they couldn't do what I wanted. All those infotainment units sold on as retrofits will have had their FeCs changed for sure or a large proportion of them. I think the bottom line is dealers wont make work for themselves in something they dont understand. Not a good dealer at least.
I've been talking to Kieran about upgrading my H24 SW 0245 to SW 0475, and getting the Sports dials added as well.
You will need to offer up a few more details from your unit. Do you know the hw number, device Id and the current fw version?What is the latest firmware for pfl MIB2 High?
Where can it be obtained from?
Thanks
