Hi
I've picked up a DAB radio, part no 65.12-9.119.355-01 does anyone know if it would be a straight swop with the FM tuner, or would the car need a recode?

I don't know but would love to know the answer to this. Please post results when you find out.

The best way to try this out is to try it. Problem is I thought that the std FM tuner was built into the CCC and the DAB was a separate control unit added to the MOST ring. I suspect its going to involve a recode at the very least.

Ok looking at 'realOEM' it does indeed look like the DAB tuner is a bolt on extra. Therefore it would probably need a dreaded recode
