Re: Failure of 5F module

This gives a detailed description of 5F:

You'll quickly realize that 5F is actually just a module address of a system that's housed in the ICAS3 infotainment unit. So that's the part that's needed here.

Re: Opinion of Beats audio?

Hmm... I would probably just replace the entire system. Yeah but like I said without Beats, there's all the extra wiring and the coding which up until now has a broken EQ when you manually add the rear speakers. This is what Beats provides: Optional sound system ● 9 speakers in different locations ...

Re: Opinion of Beats audio?

I am disappointed in the Beats system. I am sure it's better than stock, but I find myself having to run it at nearly full volume all the time and the sub distorts/drops out on bass heavy tracks. Not the Beats fault, but I hate the way you cannot have music folders when using the USB connection. It...

Re: Do we reckon Cupra UK have forgot about this?

A few dealers in Germany are claiming that the 3.5 OTA update will happen before the end of the year. AFAIK the last OTA updates in Germany were rolled out only shortly before the UK. So far nobody has been able to point out any obvious differences between 3.2.1 and 3.5 (from the factory). There are...

Re: Opinion of Beats audio?

Since my software update to 3.2.1 I noticed the sound changed quite drastically and my previous settings didn't have nearly as much bass response as before. Previously I would crank the subwoofer up to +9 and occasionally some stations and songs would absolutely overdrive the sub. Not great. However...
