@mr-fix -- I have a 2017 VW Golf R in the U.S. -- I have since removed the stock Fender Subwoofer and replaced it with an aftermarket subwoofer that plugs directly into the stock amplifier. Since the stock VW Fender Bassman subwoofer driver is just 6", there is an EQ curve applied to the subwoofer inside the stereo MIB2/5F control unit, that protects the small 6" subwoofer from being overdriven as one turns up the stereo volume. Have you seen anything inside this Developer Mode or the Green Engineering Menu where I could defeat or change this stock EQ curve? Thanks for the great videos! (I'm gonna have to go get the OBDII bluetooth dongle and get the developer mode activated on mine).

[@mrfixpl]

hi! Sadly no, I haven't seen anything related to the EQ curve over there.

[@ryanthomastew]

@@mrfixpl thanks for your reply! I should also like to ask, do you see any long coding options via the OBD2 Port and the Bluetooth app? Thanks again!!

That's VW solution to everything - part out. Start with enabling developer mode, then go into hidden menu and check if all installed FEC/SWAP codes are valid.

Hello , Can you help me , where to find link for dowload frimware last version MST2_EU_VW_P0 XXX ? THANK YOU

[@The-Explorer..]

Dear mr-fix, I hope my question is not too hard to answer but I am dealing a very long time with an unknown mystery; Sometimes(once a week) when I unlock or lock the car, I hear an very short but loud 'pop' sound from the speakers and it sounds to me like some 'electric voltage'(?) was released to the speakers. Would replacing my infotainment help? because when I took it out I did not hear anything anymore. It is an Golf mk7 build 2013/2014 with navigation and bluetooth so I guess it's an MIB1 Discover Pro(?), everything is functional (rear vw logo flip camera, auto parking(right side), detachable towbar)

[@mrfixpl]

Hi, I believe that early units had some issues with the amplifier. I've seen some info about no sound issue which was later fixed with software update. Maybe this relates to your problem as well?

[@mrfixpl]

One thing that you can try is to remove all SD cards and USB drives from the headunit. If filesystems on those are corrupted, they might cause such issues.

Hey there, one question, favour to ask. You have posted many interesting videos but I need to ask you one more regarding this GPS unit: could you please post a video with the content of the navigation card? I was trying to create on navigation card for this the same unit...and I had no success , in the end I download whatever VW is making available but still no success. It will help me to see how is the software deployed on to the card, so will suffice even a photo of the card content taken on your pc. Thank you in advance Gelu

[@mrfixpl]

Check which Navi unit you have. If it’s discover Media MIB2 (same as mine) you need original VW card (with correct CID) as it is the storage for the maps. If you have Discover Pro MIB2, then you can use any card as it is only needed for the update process when maps are copied to the headunit internal memory.
