I think the unit is called RNS-E. Does any one know how easy it is to remove a RNS-E from the car?

ejecting the DVD
The eject button on my DVD/CD is non operative.
I have had the car seven years and I do recall ejecting the DVD in the past so I don't think its the problem where the stealer forgets to deactivate the anti theft function during the PDI.

Keys to remove the RNS-E: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-Radio-remov ... 23392dcd87
Ensure the long edge is facing outward.
Although the keys are different, it's as easy as this: http://youtu.be/7kn0z_OGqlg
If you have VCDS or access to one, give it a run through on the diagnostic...
Good luck!

Re: ejecting the DVD
Yes worth checking if it is disabled or not. Your memory may have faded or some clutz might have reactivated the disable when it was in for a service.
Re: ejecting the DVD
If you're using the eBay keys, wrap a layer or two of electrical insulating tape around the finger holes - as they're b45tard sharp and will slice up your fingers. I learnt the hard way!
Audi items I believe have been dipped in some sort of silicon / rubber so have a nice soft edge to them.

Re: ejecting the DVD
I would've thought that this is the problem too. I activated the feature with VCDS on my car and would probably forget to disable it should I ever sell the car.neilparf wrote:+1 probably!MikeFish wrote:some clutz might have reactivated the disable when it was in for a service.

Re: ejecting the DVD
If after checking you find that the eject button is enabled then once you've removed the RNS-E from the dash you only need to remove the top cover to gain access to9 the DVD drive, then you can slide the DVD out of the slot. I had this happen to me a few years ago and it only took about 5 minutes to open up the RNS-E, slide the DVD out and refit the top cover.Surrey Sam wrote:I would've thought that this is the problem too.
