Hello all!
The MIB1 unit with 4G on my 2014 S3 has gone on the blink (module not recognised). I have found a 2016 MIB2 unit and wondered if this can be fitted as a replacement?
If so, I have a few important questions (I have VACGOM):
- do I need any other parts?
- what will I need to do with VCDS to mate it to my car?
- are there any gremlins / protection issues that might stump me?!
- is this a stupid idea?
My MIB1 unit - 8V0 035 036 B
Offered MIB2 unit - 8V1 035 035 D
Looks like the MIB2 unit has another couple of connectors - assume for the USB / CarPlay (if that's a feature). Is there a cable one can buy to add the USB interface? Photos attached at end of post.
Supposed to have SIM/4G, which mine has.
@DJAlix - am I dreaming to think this will be easy?!
Many thanks indeed.
