Before I let the friendly professionals in: What kind of equipment is needed?
What questions should I ask him to make sure...?
Does he have a plan for this?

I'm deeply suspicious of that.

Thank you & Best regards.

You will need the following equipment:

- VAS 5051/5052
- Current base software for the VAS.
- Up-to-date brand software should also be available.
- Either online access or update CDs.

Online update via Software Version Management (SVM).

The CDs are available for order, please refer to the relevant technical datasheet for details.

In short, it's not possible without being a certified service provider.

Hi everyone,

It's probably true that it has something to do with SW. You could go to a dealer you trust.
and ask questions before you destroy your device. Get a good price.
since there is actually no real representation.

Best regards, and everything will be alright. icon_biggrin.gif
