The very latest C5 RS6s - Did they come with RNS-E from the factory?

Cheers

One of my friends has an RS6+ and it has a factory RNS-E.

Yep all the Plus had them from the factory. But wondered if anyone knew std car ever did (54 plate)

Not unfeasible I suppose, just not heard of another.

There's one for sale here: http://atsearch.autotrader.co.uk/www/ca ... 6318140741 which is apparently an 05 plate, but the photos show it's RNS-D.

RNS-E was only factory fitted to the Plus.

RNS-D was standard on the later pre-Plus cars.

YUP from 04 onwards they had RNS-E.

Funny that Misano car being an 05 having CD based system.

Bet that if you check that manufacture date of that 05 it was built early 04!

Well I've just done a search on AutoTrader for RS6 with 2004 in the title (which brings up a couple of 53 plates?). Anyway, there's 14 matches:

Dunno: 4
RNS-D: 4
RNS-E: 6 (although 4 were RS6 Plus)

So what's the conclusion? That I just wasted 10 minutes I think..

I think it is safe to say that only plus's came with RNS-E. All others came with RNS-D. The conversion is easy so I would not be surprised if it was done to a car.

I am doing it this weekend.

Well you might be saying it's easy now...

Are you planning on doing anything about the TV? I didn't bother with it so I've lost TV functionality but then the analogue signals are getting switched off soon anyway aren't they? Do Audi do a freeview equivilent?

What would I do without the TV? No more Ready Steady Cook repeats at 3am when wating for a ferry crossing, no more Teletubbies when waiting for the Eurotunnel.... I'd be lost without it.

I did see digital TV (freeview) in an S8 which was impressive, much clearer than the fuzzbox analogue reception.

I saw someone offering a complete fitted install with the later dvd system that included the blootooth, freeview for about £1500 fitted.

Craigyb does digital + freeview Audi install (from the new TT) for about £500. And yes it works well and has a good picture at speed.

I'll do without it until then
