The problem was because with your old RD4 unit, the microphone connected to a separate hands-free box and not to the RD4. Now you are not using this, the microphone needs to be connected directly to the new head unit.

The Mic is wired in such a way that it disappears into the loom, so you will not be able to find the exit point without getting inside the dash to locate the Nomad hands free unit and identify it from there.

Others have bought a new mix and wired it directly to the mic wiring block that is in one of the blocks in the quadlock

Now you get me an idea. i will cut mic wire close to mic. so i don't need to unloop the wires. and i will solder a new wire direct to fakra connector.
it is no problem to buy s new one but this works perfectly.

Yes, that's another way, before it transforms into the ribbon.

Ok i solved the microphone problem like i said, by cutting wires neer microphone on the connector to ribbon cable, it is working like charm. But now i have another problem, my gps is not working it is constantly "location bad" "visible satellites 0". Is there something i have to change in lexia because i only put the new VIN with lexia, everything else was working normally, so i didn't touch anything.

When you upgraded, did you ensure you have a proper GPS aerial installed? The RD4 aerial unit is not for GPS reception, it needs a proper aerial for that to work.

Ofcourse. i pulled aerial from yumpi and disassembled it took only the gps module and hot glued it to the glass behind interior light and mic trim. So aerial should not be the problem. What else to look for?
