French Car Forum

Hi all,

As a new member I've been searching and reading through the many threads on this forum. As mentioned in another topic where I was looking to distinguish between the different (nav) systems (thanks @GiveMeABreak), I have an RT6 with maps from 2014.

Before I splurge €130 on maps, I wanted to be sure on the procedure, but currently not...

Hello. I have a 2012 model C4 Grand Picasso. I want to update both my map and fireware. This is very difficult in Turkey. Can anyone share a map and fireware link with me?

Hi everyone.

I bought a new car. 2013 model pegeuot partner tepee zenith. But some buttons on the radio don't work.

For example, I can increase the volume but I can't decrease it.

For example, the numbered buttons for the radio...

Hi to all :)

Have recently bought my 11/2012 Peugeot 308 e-HDI and a few times now it has come up with the attached photo symbol.
Can only be described as an ice cream cone with a scoop of ice cream on top.
Any ideas what it may mean?

Have obviously checked all possible handbooks and have tried googling to know. Got over hundreds pages with...

Hello all,

Hello, I have a 2014 Peugeot RCZ facelift and a few weeks ago the screen, radio, ... Everything stopped working. Also the cd slot made noises like it was trying to pull a cd in. After some research I found it was the sd card fault and removed the radio and the sd card and bought a new one and put it all back together. Since the sd card doesn't...

Hey everyone, and greetings from Norway!
I know most of you are probably watching the Olympic opening ceremony in Paris at this very moment, but I'll go ahead anyway :wink:

It's my first post on the forum, so I hope I'm not stepping on too many toes when I say that I absolutely hate the RT6 system in my DS5.

I've been driving around with a...

Hi everybody,
I’ve red the topic regarding the internal sd card change using Mirascript, and I understood that this process is useful in order to save your specific car configuration.

My question is: if I simply put a new microsd card can I configure the radio using Diagbox as a new unit for example?

Cheers,

Today during the activation of “Shows pop up info as on instrument cluster” and “enable HARM03” functions through DatExplorer i found out another ones that are having the value “0” which means that are disabled, so no info shared on navigation.

As an example:
Display water and oil temp and TPM screen
“List of warnings” in SET-UP menu...

Hi all,

I hope I can get a second opinion I am having a few issues with my navigation system. I recently purchased a Citroen DS5 2012 and noticed that the maps as well as the firmware were never updated. The firmware version is RNEG2.1.G.5 and all the Europe maps are from 2010/2011 . I purchased the updated version of the maps (2023) from a third...

Hi,
i bought my new C5 X7 2015 recently, but while it has almost all i need, it is missing the reversing camera which i was used to in my previous C5.
The multimedia system is RT6, which should have the camera option and i would like to install the original camera.
There is a plastic cover at the place where original camera is normaly placed,...

Hi,

I search to change my RD45 radio by a RNEG2 system. I've got one from a Berlingo XTR (2015 I think ?). When I try to install it, i notice that the brown cable is'nt the same that the original screen from my RD45. I don't really know how everything work. Maybe can I cut the original cable and try to connect it to the screen ? I saw on eBay...

Hello,

Is there a way to check what Sat Nav hardware is on my car?

So it could help me find some potential problems with it, firmware updates or other useful information.

Problems I have:
1) Sat Nav keeps rebooting often.
2) Bluetooth connection is bad. Sound from phone keeps lagging or no sound at all.

My car is 2012 Citroen DS5 2.0 HDi....

Been plucking up the courage for a year to try the mirascripts repair for my SD card but every single line seems counter intuitive so I have to wonder whether it's even referring to my RT6 unit? I have seen units with SD card slot at the front. Mine is inside

Hello,

I have Citroen c5 2012 with RT6 player (I think it's RT6). When playing music from phone, there's very very big latency in audio (on phone music shows playing, but car will start to play in about 1-2sec.)
No problems with phone calls.
Using with iPhone.
What could cause this problem?

Thank you!

Hello 🤝🏽

I have on my DS5 from 2012 the RT6 unit with the software version: RNEG2.31.C.1.
I saw that there are newer versions and my question is if an update to 2.86 for example is recommended or not.

I’m thinking that maybe this version comes with more features unlocked or with a better performance (even if right now the unit moves nice, i’m...

Hi, I would like to know if the Model Citroën C5X7 2014 sedan has an antenna booster already fitted ?? If not, what type of antenna connections does this radio have. Unfortunately, I did not take any pictures when I removed the radio. Does anyone else have problems with poor reception on this radio. If it does NOT have a signal booster I intend to...

Hi All

Vehicle is a Citroen C4 2010 vin in my sig.
I have no issues with the current set up, just want to update the maps and to do that i need to update the firmware and have read the posts about FW 2.86 causing issues.
I think from reading other posts that there is a FW 2.86b which addresses the issue of the Bluetooth echo in FW 2.86.

Current...

Using diagnox shows camera present but nothing shows up when in reverse. All sensors work. Previous owner said it was working but does not know why it stopped or what they did (garage) is there a fuse? I did have to replace rear sensor when i bought it.
Any help or advice would be great
Lee : :?

I have a feeling that my RT6 or the amplifier is on its way out. One issue is that if I go over a big bump (pothole) I loose sound on all sources including navigation, it will then come back some time later. In hot weather, the RT6 will suddenly go blank screen and silent for several seconds, then return. I've pulled the RT6 out, but can't find...

Hello,

Thanks

Hi everyone,
previously i upgraded my 2008 C4's RD4 for a RD45 and everything worked flawlessly. Now i bought a RT6 and i was able to have everything working, even coded the VIN (directly modifying the files on the sdcard since at the start the confirm button did not work). The problem is when i removed my RD45 the 12v switched remote does not...

Just lost the satnav on my wife's 2014 c4 millenium, same car on this thread.

Apparently it stopped working for a day a few weeks ago but now it seems permanent.
The screen shows no satellites visable & unmapped zone .
Any ideas before she takes it to our local Citroen service garage who, I think, will give it the gallic shrug followed by the...

Hi everyone,
I cannot update the firmware from 2.80.E.2 (CD 8785) to the latest version available (2.86.B): when I insert the USB stick, the system takes about 2/3 minutes to check the media contents of the stick and returns the error “Update support damaged or incomplete”.
I downloaded the firmware from Citroen Service (I checked the size of the...

Hello,
Recently bought a C5 X7 with the RT4 head unit, and I'm looking into replacing it with RT6, what is the process, and do you need to replace wiring for it?
Thanks in advance.

I have checked my model details and found this lot,
Unit - 9806708077
CD8950
RNEG 2.86.B.1
SW 201501191200

How does that compare to the newest upgrade.
Is the firmware upgradeable to increase the usefulness of the satnav, and what's the latest map update with speed camera locations.

I'm still frustrated by the satnav's shortcomings and would...

Hi all,

I just bought a used 2014 Peugeot 3008. Initially I didn't realise that the headunit was faulty because the radio, camera etc seems to be working fine.

I then realised this issue when I start to try the buttons on the headunit. Try to reset with eject button hold method didn't work.

Now, I would like to ask for a help from anybody here...

All are ok even Bluetooth streaming and phone calls sound excellent, but.... sometimes the radio will not start or it takes a 5mins or so to boot up. I have reinstalled no problem every time.

Hello,
My RT6 system on my Peugeot 508 sw 2012 is rebooting every few minutes, which leads me to believe that the firmware-SD card is corrupted. I managed to fish out the config for my car (user_4.dat, user_com.dat and user_config.dat) using Mirascript. Because the CD-drive is broken, i have to use the USB port to flash the firmware onto the RT6....

Whenever I start the car, it asks me to insert the navigation system cd. I can change to radio etc but it does it each time I start the car. And sometimes it doesn't always happen straight away.
On a couple of occasions, the radio just goes off completely.
