    RNS-E unlocking CD

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I´m looking for the CD or file to download the program that is said to unlock RNS-E units made by Aisin. Does anyone know how to get it? or where to purchase it? There is an italian website that sells it, but not sure if they are good.

    Since I´m already posting, here is the funny story that goes with my request: My family took a long summer vacation and when we came back, guess what: dead battery on my 2005 A4 B6.
    Charged the battery and had it running the next day, but the RNS-E unit was locked up. I purchased it from ebay in 2008, so after moving a couple of times I forgot where the code is.
    Went to the dealer and they wanted $160 to unlock it. Went to ebay and found sellers stating that they can unlock it for $7.95. My problem is I know this is going to happen again, so I wanted a more ¨permanent¨solution. I remember reading a while back that there is a CD that, once inserted, shows the code on the screen. Had a business trip coming, so I just left it like that.

    The funny part of the story: this morning my wife wanted to use the car, and the battery was dead again (a few weeks sitting in the garage). She recharged it and ´voila¨!!! the RNS-E is working again. Asked her what did she do?... she said nothing... just charged the battery.
    So I´m now searching for this CD cause I know next vacation is the same story again.

    Thanks guys!

    pay the guy $7.95, and write the code in several places. It will not change for the same unit. Factory installed RNS-E are code paired to the car ECU, most retrofitted are not.
