My RNS_E in my RS6 is playing up, the sat nav side of it says it can`t read dvd disc, its a 2007 original disc, is there anyone in the sutton surrey area who is willing to let me try there RNS-E 2007 disc in mine so i can find out if its the disc or the unit?.
thanks.

My bet would be that the laser needs cleaning.

Best to do that first, before swapping units.

I just cleaned mine with soft tissue.

But I spoke to a local Audio company later on, and he recommended using methylated spirit

I use isopropyl alcohol - it doesn't have the added purple colourant that meths has.
