Subject: Re: [AudiNav] Dumb question on TMC/CANbus gateway tuners
this might help:
Part numbers for the TMC/CAN gateway:
There are three different versions that will work with your A6/S6/RS6/allroad (per Vagparts.com). Because those of us in the United States are only using the TMC/CAN for its CAN translation capabilities, it has been proven that any version below will work.
Audi Part#
TMC/CAN Fitment
4B1 919 894
CAN for all A6/S6/RS6/allroad; TMC for MY2000 – 01
4B1 919 894A
CAN for all A6/S6/RS6/allroad; TMC for MY2001 for vehicles in Spanish / French market
4B1 919 894B
CAN for all A6/S6/RS6/allroad; TMC for MY2001 – 04
Please note:
It has been proven that any 4B1 version will work in a US-based Nav+ installation. The 4B1 version has the CAN translation firmware in it. Per Dan Gold, there is a TMC Tuner only version (part# starts with 4B0) and a TMC/CAN gateway version (part# starts with 4B1). You will notice on some of the 4B0's there is a large blue connector as well. The 4BO version is only for TMC functionality. DO NOT PURCHASE the 4B0-XXX-XXX version as it will NOT translate the navigation/CD/radio information to your DIS; the 4B0 model is just a TMC tuner.
Good luck!

Hi all
I am about to order a TMC tuner part number 4B1 919
894
and cables from e-bay and am told it is a combined
TMC/CANbus tuner. Link is:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=76082&item=4534807812&rd=1
My NAV+ is audi part number 4B0 035 192K.
My question: is this the right tuner to get directions
in the driver info display panel in the instrument
cluster and also to get auto re-routing (I am in the
UK and will need a TMC enabled disk.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
Aman
