Keeping your R-Link 2 GPS up-to-date is important. There are 2 elements that can be updated: the system (software, firmware) and the map.
First of all there is the system software in general of R-Link 2: the operating system. You must be as up-to-date as possible because it’s like your phone or computer: the most recent versions correct bugs, improve performance and bring new features.
How to know the version of my R-Link 2?
To check the cartography you have to go in: NAVIGATION / OPTIONS (bottom right) / ABOUT.
To know its software version it is necessary to go in the following menus: SYSTEM / INFORMATION SYSTEME
There are 4 different versions for R-Link 2: 2.X, 3.X, 7.X and 8.X To determine the branch, the start of the software version number is based on the System Information menu.
What is the latest software version available for R-Link 2?

Explanation of the “Update software yourself” column?
No ❌ ➡ You need to go your Renault Dealer to get the update.
Yes ✅ ➡ Can do the update using yourself ➡ see bellow
The 2.2.18.590 seems to be available for all systems of the 2.2.X.Y branch.
2 situations:
- Your version is lower than 2.2.17.803 (so from 1.4.15.905 to 2.2.15.703): the garage will pass you in 2.2.18.590 without problem.
- Your version is 2.2.17.803:
you can flip a coin. It is best to first ask the helpline if the vehicle (with the VIN number) is compatible before going into a garage. The helpline will be able to tell you whether it is good or not to make an appointment to perform the update. If the vehicle is not compatible today, the helpline forwards the file to the technical teams so that it becomes according to the returns of other members.See this page to install the 2.2.19.300

How to update the R-Link 2 software?
At the beginning of R-Link 2 it was not possible to update the system yourself. A visit to a garage was then mandatory.
Since 2018, it is possible for some versions to update on their own. In the table above, you can see it with the column “Update software yourself?”.
Explanation of the “Update software yourself” column?
No ❌ ➡ You need to go your Renault Dealer to get the update.
Yes ✅ ➡ Can do the update using yourself ➡ see bellow
- Go to www.renault-multimedia.com
- Click on your country
- Click on the banner (or access via this link )
- Enter your VIN (you will find it on your registration / registration card), it starts with VF1.
- Download the ZIP file of more than 600 MB.
- Unzip the downloaded file and put the “R-LINK” folder in the root of a FAT32 formatted USB key. In this R-LINK folder you have three files (The folder with the file is more than 1 GB):
- Eject the key of your computer correctly.
Installation in the car
- Go in your vehicle and start it.
- Insert the USB key
- The system will now scan the usb key and verify the integrity of the files present on the key. The system will seem to be frozen for 2 minutes: no worries. Do not remove the key!
- A message will eventually appear asking if you want to install the update. Click on YES
- Now patience! The system will restart several times to install the update, obviously we do not cut the engine and we do not remove the USB key!
- A pop-up will ask you to restart. Click on YES
- A pop-up indicates that the installation went well and asks us if we want to remove the update of the USB key. We click on YES
- Remove the USB key.
- Check on the screen Menu / System / System Information (2nd page) that you have the correct version installed (for example 2.2.19.300)
- To check if you benefit from a map update, I advise you to reconnect the USB key to the vehicle and wait 2 minutes.
- Then connect the same key to your computer and open the R-Link 2 Toolbox and the R-Link Store to check for updates. If so, you can download them and install them in the car. Otherwise you can always subscribe to a new subscription to receive the latest cards via the R-Link Store!
- 2.2.19.300 (see this page)
- 3.3.16.960 (see this page).
Bluetooth Problem with iOS 11 (iPhone) and R-Link 2
It seems that the R-Link 2 up to version 2.2.15.703 included is affected by a problem of permanent connection / disconnection of the Bluetooth of the iPhone rendering inoperative functionality. Version 2.2.17.803 does not seem affected .
Concerned people can contact their favorite Renault garage to ask to update the R-Link 2 (and therefore switch to 2.2.18.590) which should solve the problem according to this message on a forum:
Here, as expected, MAJ R-Link 2 made today. Everything works again with my iPhone 6s under iOS 11. Good news!
Any news for upgrading from 2.X.X.X to 3.X.X.X ?
No. ?
Still noway to upgrade from 2 to 3?
yes ! I just deed it today !!!
Be nice and describe… AFAIK, this is not possible due to the hardware incompatibility and changes… Renault claims that this isn’t possible even if customer wants to pay the upgrade.
seguro que paso de la 2.2 a la version 3? podria decirnos como?
My Talisman rlink 2.2.19.300 upgraded to V.7.0.24.136 few days ago by official Renault service. Nov.2018.
Hello, you ask for an update? It was only a software update or also a hardware change?
only software update and done by renault official service.
Hello
Is it possible to give me the 7.0.24.136 software so I can install it on my Rlink2.
Or give me your car’s VIN so I can download it.
Thank you for your reply
No it is not possible
Hi ohayyam,
why did you update to V7… What new features did you get? Android auto? Does it work properly, how is it different from 2.2.19.300?
thanks,
Seppo
ps. there was earlier a post telling that witt os 2.2 Android auto will not work, is this still the case?
Hello
After having 7.x version, do you have Mirror Link available, please? (for Android Auto or Carplay)
thanks
Hi!
I have the Software Version 1.4.15.904 and tried to Do an update in the renault workshop, but they couldn’t Do it.
is there any possibility to get to 2.2. Or 7.0.?
Thanks in advance
Sorry.
I got the wrong comment and will Post my issue at the right place. Hopefully 🥴
I have version 22.18.590 from the week.
Why can I download the version 2.2.19.200 as per the instructions?
Entering the VIN number is the message:
Sorry, this upgrade is not available for your Renault car. Please check the number.
I have the same issue….
Hello. Did you resolve a problem with update? If yes let me know how?
And no response from admin
Perhaps because I don’t have all the answers ? (And a life outside this website)
Technically 2.2.18 and 2.2.19 are very similar. The 2.2.19 is especially important for those who were stuck in version 2.2.17. If you are in 2.2.18 you will not gain anything in 2.2.19. ?
Hello from Iran
couple of weeks ago i updated my Renault Talisman Rlink2 from version 2.2.17 to 3.3.16 by downloading the update file from a korean website ( http://tmap.co.kr/tmap_for_car/customer/slink.do ). but after installing i faced few problems. there is no picture from talisman anymore in the menus like drive mode or 360 radar or wherever i saw talisman before and also audio command doesnt work anymore. it seems it was designed for other renaults and not talisman.
know i tried to return to 2.2.18 by the link you provided but at the time of installation it says you can not go to older versions.
can any one help? 🙁
many thanks in advance.
You installed a Korean 3.3.16 version of S-Link(so Samsung motors and not renault) on a 2.2.17 version of renault R-Link? Seriously? and you are surprised that it does not work? ?? Where have you seen you can do something like that? Surely not on this web site … The only thing you can do and to go to your dealer to get a flash of the good firmware, but I am not sure it is possible… Keep us informed of the repair.
Thanks for the reply. The dealer is not cooperating.
No way to flash it by myself?
Nope ?
Hi Johnny B,
Out of interest aside from no pictures in the menus and the voice control not working, did the screen mirroring work when you updated to 3.3.16?
I couldn’t care less what it looks like so long as the screen mirroring works. I am currently on 2.2.19.200 Megane delivered 03.2017
Many thanks
No the mirror link is not working ?
hey johnny
any news ? did u back to factory default
let me know
thanks
Dear Sirs.
I’ve just bought ALL existing apps from R-Link 2 store for my new Talisman (2017) but I can`t find anywhere COMPASS app I would really like to have. Do you know / have any information where I can download it? (I have seen some photos of some R-Link 2 dashboards with Compass installed).
Compass is 1 tile version of the navigation. Try long pressing on an empty space and select 1 square of navigation. It worked for me perfectly.
Hi, Has anyone had success with their dealer’s (anywhere in the world), applying updates to the software version 3?
That is going from an older version 3 to the latest version 3. Here in Australia, Renault is saying that the system and therefore Apple Carplay/Android Auto cannot be upgraded on older models.
I don’t think they’re correct on this and this only applies to the version 2 software.
Cheers.
In Poland I had upgrade from 2.2 xxx to 3.3xxx ver.During the warranty in my dealer. 1.5 EDC 2018 bussines ver before lift.
I work in a Renault garage and i know from inside person is not for the moment posible to do upgrade from 2.xx to 3.xx . He told me that is not only software but harware also. I compared my radio model Radio65A ho now is have versie 2.2.xxx.803 whit a new scenic4 ho have 5he same model from radio 65A but versie 3.3 and phone miroring . So i wait now a answer from my friend ho works inside . 100% is another hardware bicause the referentie from my radio and scenic radio are not the same .
Compass is 1 tile version of the navigation. Try long pressing on an empty space and select 1 square of navigation. It worked for me perfectly.
Wow! THANK YOU VERY MUCH! This is something I would never think about! Yes, finally I got 2D compass (which is better than to orientate on 2D icon (pointing north) on the map 🙂 Thank you again!
But on the other side – I am sure I’ve seen 3D compass, small as icon of “Lupe” (where you can + / -) while you are on full screen map. There was a small 3D compass rotating as transparent icon as you are driving, looks pretty cool. Maybe it is on Samsung versions, who knows. I will investigate further.
Anyway – my car Software is: 3.3.16.996
Boot is 5376 and Navigation no. is 9.12.133.696450.
2 weeks ago I’ve look for updates (connected card on logged account on UK site) – no single update for Talisman (December 2017) 1.6 200bhp… As system is offline while you are here in Serbia 🙁 the moment I cross border (Hungary for example) – car “wakes up” and everything starts to work. As I bought nearly everything from the store… there is nothing left that is useful and looks like nothing is developing for R-Link…?
2 months ago – Weather Forecast app worked great, but last week (in Hungary) – car was “only” online, showing traffic but Weather Forecast was “disabled” (like it is not receiving signal?)… Maybe some update is needed. I will connect my USB now and see if there are some news 🙂 Thanks again for your help!
p.s. there is a guy from Turkey who managed to install Android system – he is even watching Youtube on R-Link; he added power train button (that Talismans with extended rear) has implemented, this guy from Turkey is very friendly and he seems the only one who is trying and improving by himself his Talisman and upload tutorials (translated on English with text) from time to time. You can learn some amazing stuff that Renault developers disabled.

Hi!
Are there any people who faced with a problem “Out of memory. Requested 1701978227 Cache: 0” ?
Absolutely the same problem is well known for ages on Android smarthones http://amichalec.net/2014/01/igo-out-of-memory/
The oficial Renault garage can’t help me during month((((
I bought the new koleos two monthes ago and a week later installed map update 2016.12
I ran “R-Link 2 Toolbox” on my Mac. I do not know why but Mac OS made hidden files with extended attributes on prepared flash in the R-LINK folder. These files were transfered to internal R-LINK storage and now the navigator could not start. All other functions of r-link work well exept navigation.
I have tried to install the latest maps 06.2017 but with no success. The process of installation do not start.
The garage couldn’t reflash my r-link2 as so it is 3.3.16 from the plant.
Hello,
I have the same problem with my koleos. In my case the problem gave me with the latest version, 06.2017 The Nv3 technical service does not call me to give me any solution. I’m like this since May.
Hello
A month ago the garage have replaced my r-link 2 with the new one. The Renault do not know other way to solve this problem.
You need to insist on replacing
Hi, same problem with my R-link 2 v. 9.x
I’m waiting for a solution from Renault.
One information, the update you performed it from Windows or Mac?
Doing some research on the internet, it seems that the problem is due to the update made by the Mac.
See here: http://amichalec.net/2014/01/09/igo-out-of-memory/
So I have a renault talisman built in November 2016…i have version 2.2.18.590 and I never had apple carplay or android auto available…will it be possible to have it sometime in the future or not?
Thanks in advance…
A new firmware version (2.2.19.300) is available on https://www.renault-multimedia.com/gbr_EN/r-link2/upgrade. Downloaded and upgraded today with no problems. Now, zip archive contains R-LINK folder and mm2014_upgrade.lgu is digitally signed.
Hi, I bought my Scenic 4 and collected it a couple of weeks ago. It was made in early 2017 and I asked the dealership to upgrade r link. It currently has 3.3.15 installed but they told me there is no upgrade available for my vehicle.
Did they lie to me or is this possible? It’s a portrait 8.7 version.
You can ask to have the last update (the 3.3.16.94x)
Haw and where we can ask? I was in Renault garage and they told me that they can’t do it. Thanks
Any way to upade rlink 2 manually???
What about software version 1.4.15.801 which seems to be installed by cars manufactured in the 2015 beginning.
This version is not on the list, does it mean that it can’t be updated ?
I didn’t know this one ?, to get the last version you need to go to your Renault dealership ?
Hello Pedro,
did you update the software? Mine is also 1.4.15.801.
Just a quick note to say thank you so much for the information provided here. It is the only source of clear information that I’ve found online for r-link upgrades, version numbers, upgrade paths etc. It is most useful and very much appreciated.
You’re welcome ?
hello , i updated my r-link 2 on my talisman grandtourer , but now i have a problem with carplay, r-link wont to connect with my iphone x IOS 11.3.1!!!
A guy from Denmark (my country) just got his radio unit in his R-Link 2 replaced from his 2016 Renault Scenic 4 … The R-Link 2 unit now states to have software version 7.0.24.121 … What is this now? He posted a picture of it: https://bit.ly/2H1IHbp
Did he get the whole unit replaced or just software? It seems like a new version with mirroring – very fortunate for him – share with us some more details please 🙂
Hola, buenas tardes, soy un propietario de un Renault megane, comprado hace dos meses, y con un equipo r-link 2 con la versión. Actualizada al 3.3.16.941 y tengo problemas. Con el manos libres ya que se conecta al móvil y desde que recibo o hago una llamada se desconecta y ya no vuelve a conectar más,
Mi móvil es un Huawei smart P
Por mi trabajo, alquilo coches casi todas las semanas y de todos los tipos, y es una vergüenza que en coches de 2, 3 y 4 años de antigüedad, e incluso el parrot que tengo en el otro coche, funciona todo perfectamente. Y en este que es un coche nuevo, es imposible,
Y la solución de Renault, es que tiene la última version y es incompatibilidad, con el móvil.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm una vergüenza es lo que es, que a estas alturas, hayan problemas de incompatibilidad con móviles, eso sii sólo con el r-link, ya que la competencia función a muy bien y sin problemas.
Un saludo
I’ve the same problems with r-link2 bluetooth and huawei p8, I’ve the 2.2.19.300 firmware…
I got my new Espace yesterday with version 7.0.24.126 (Netherlands).
Goodmorning everyone,
I have a Megane IV of September 2016. Cause serious malfunction I was replaced by the entire Rlink2 system and the new system was sent with version 2.2.15.703 (in the old system I had version 2.2.18.890).
I sent two e-mails to Renault Italy, which confirms me in writing that I can upgrade from 2.2.15.703 to 2.2.19.300 without problems.
Is this information reliable? Is Reanult Italia advising me well?
Or will I have the GPS problems you’re talking about?
I thank you in advance for your valuable help
Hello, 2 things about your message. First of all, I do not find it normal that the garage after the replacement of the rlink2 did not return you the vehicle with the most updated version !! Secondly, I confirm you that if you have 2.2.15.703, you can’t update yourself, only Renault can update it!
Thank you for your answer. I will complain again with the customer service of Renault Italy, I hope they solve the problem definitively.
how many days (or months) agò did you change the rlink2 unit?
Hello, the Rlink2 unit was replaced on 01 June 2018. Unfortunately, a unit was mounted with version 2.2.15.703.
For the record after a long phone call with Renault Italy I made the update from version 2.2.15.703 to 2.2.19.300 without any kind of problem to the GPS, then I updated the maps to 2017.06
Hi Fabrizio,
thanks for your quick answer. Do you have any number of reference about the head unit replaced? You are italian like me!! we can keep in touch also by mail….
igno _ v @ hotmail .com (without spaces)
Bye
Hey, I know it’s a been a long time since you did this, but please can you explain how you did the update? using the usb?
I have a Kadjar with the same version, and I’m want to do the same update.
Thanks,
Incredible…someone change the head unit from 2.2.x to 3.3.x (or better with 7.0!), and other ones from 2.2 to the same 2.2!! I hope that all 2.2 are finished because on the 3.3 is possible to activate the carplay and android auto…
I will change the head unit of my megane 4 (2.2.19.300) for a lot of problem and it seems that the new reference of the spare part is the same of a lot of Scenic 4, so I hope with the 3.3.x
I will let you know
Yes , thanks ?
Hi, I have a kadjar of dec 2017 with version 3.3.16.941, soft start version 5376, navigation info 9.12.133.675708, how do I update to version 7.0.24.121?
Many Thanks
Hello, as indicate in the board, you have the last version. It isn’t possible to update from 3.3.16.xxx to 7.0.x.x today.
HI!
I have the version 3.3.16946, can some one tell me if this is the last version?
I can’t conect my Iphone (IOs version 11.4) with the bluetooth.
Dou you know any thing to fix this problem?
Hi
I have a Koleos with the last version of software and I can connect perfectly iOS and Android devices. My problem is the microphone does not work. If I reset the system it works but 5 minutes later it does not.
I think it is a glitch. I am in UK and the Renault garage does know how to solve this after several visits.
Any advice?
Thank you
Hello,
In my Megane, I’m on 3.3.16.94. Some weeks ago, I was able to connect with CarPlay but now, my iPhone (6 – ios 10) is no more recognized. The CarPlay logo is not showing up.
I tried with another cable and another iPhone (5s) and same story.
Do you have any idea to solve this?
Kind regards,
Aure

hi, i have a new koleos and i want to upgrade, but it seems that in the latinamerican renault webs, does not offer the upgrade option, as in other europeon webs.. however, i did try my vin code in the spanish and the english websites and appears to be compatible, i got the green tick, so i wonder, if its just a matter of renault politics, or just delaying the upgrade? and if will harm my system ?
Hello, good question… ? , Have you asked to the Renault Helpline? What is your software version ?
mine is the 2.2.17 and the helpline at my country says that there is no info about this, that there is no upgrade and blablablabla… i have the same problem with my dab radio, moves the tuning by itself, and from what i see, its a software problem, but they want to fix it by removing the thing and changing it…
Does anyone Know how to get version 7.0.24.126. I have a Koleos 2018 in Mexico and with that version I could have CarPlay on the SUV. Thanks
Thanks everybody.

Hola Pablo. Gracias por la info. Mi camioneta tiene la versión 3.3.16.946. Aun así no cuenta con CarPlay siendo 2018. Al marcar a Atencion a clientes me dicen que como fue ensamblado antes de diciembre 2017 no contará con CarPlay. Acudí a la agencia y me subí a uno de los modelos 2018 igual a la mía y si tienen CarPlay. Cuentan con un software 7.0.24.126. Ya metí mi queja a profeco ya que no creo sea válido que ambas camionetas siendo 2018 unas si lo tengan y otras no siendo la mía la versión más equipada. Incluso ahorita todas las versiones tienen CarPlay. Y la mía siendo la más equipada no lo tiene. Por eso mi pregunta de si sabían de donde pudiera conseguir ese software e instalarlo en mi camioneta. Si es cuestión de hardware espero me cambien el estéreo con la demanda que interpuse en Profeco.

HI Victor,
Could you explain a litlle more about how you find the hardware version?
I have the RLink 2 with Software 2.2 and I would like to upgrade to 3 in order to activate Android auto. My car is a new Koleos from may 2017 with 7″ screen.
Hi Victor, I extremely need your help.
Many Thanks!!
Hi Victor, please can you explain how to upgrade from 2.2 to 3.3? Thanks so much.
EDIT admin: I highly not recommend this manipulation (install a soft on a hard not planned for that …), patience, official manipulation is approaching.
Hi ADMIN, “patience, official manipulation is approaching” do you have some information? Kindly share some information …. thank you
Hello, nothing official but this should happen quickly. There was a test period done in some garages to switch from a soft version 2.x to 7.x. That’s why I recommend to wait and not do the manipulation to switch to 3.x because I don’t know if it will then be possible to switch from 3.x to 7.x.
Hi, thank you so much for your reply. I totally agree with your recommendation. I calm down and wait. Hope new update will release soon. Fingers crossed.
I heard yesterday, that it should be released to the official Renault dealers monday or tuesday this week. Only the dealers should be able to update from 2.X to 7.X … and they they might only do it on units that have “issues”.
I heard the same thing, I just want to check the news before publishing a post! 😉 If it is true it is a big news!
Internally at Renault it should be called solution ACTIS 49605 – to update R-Link 2 units from before March 2017 to 7.XX – I got my Talisman in the Renault Garage right now (battery dead after 2.5 years ….and only 47.000KM) and I have asked them to look for the solution and update my unit. I will let you know how it goes.
I wait for your confirmation 😉
Still waiting to get my car back – apparently they are having trouble applying the fix. They had to send video of the process to Renault, and they are now waiting for Renault to come back with a solution as to why it is bugging. Will keep you posted.
Picked my car up again yesterday – They did not get it to work. They are waiting for answers from Renault France, on why it did not work, and what they have to do to make it work. When they have news, they will call my car back in the garage.
Otto Freiburg are there any news on your Rlink2? Have they called you to finish the job?
Hi Admin!
I have the software update 2.2.19.300 on my megane IV 2016 MY but I cant seem to make Tomtom live traffic work at all. I am here in Australia and when I go to the rlink store, it stated awaiting activation.. Kindly assist – Don
Hello Don,
It’s strange. I don’t think I’ll be able to help you for that. Have you try to contact the Australia Helpline ?
I havent tried calling them but because renault is not very popular here (market share is only 1%), I didnt bother. I had my car serviced a few months ago and told them to update my GPS and they said no update at that time. But after visiting your website, i managed to update from 2.2.17.803 to 2.2.19.300 and managed to update my maps too which the dealership here didnt even bother.. You are my saving grace and Thank you.. Hopefully I can make live traffic work as it never worked from the beginning
Hey Don.
Yup when it comes to the RLink they are hopeless. All show and no go unfortunately. The TomTom Live Traffic you have to register on the AU site as you probably have already. Then you goto you car and tap on the “Stickynote icon” and tap on activate.
If the subscription has lapsed. i.e your car was previous years model and its been sitting there 12 months then you have to buy it again.

Could argue with the dealership and they might issue you with a Voucher Code
hello, can you explain how you did install version 3.3 on one that had 2.2?
There is a new update available for my 2018 IV Estate GT205. Does anyone now what kind of update it is? There is no Version noted. See this screenshot:

I’have something similar on a Kadjar,
but when I insert the usb key with this update in the car nothing happen…
finding the same update still on the renault website.
Maurizio
“Service notification” is updated (+ e-mail application )
Infact on the website I found 3 updates:
– e-mail
– service notification
– important system update
When I inserted the usb key
into the car, I updated
– email
– service notification
but not the
– important system update
that is still “to do”
on Renault website…
I have a 2017 Megane GT with version2.2.17.803
I am looking for Apple Play.Is this possible? Dealer says my vehicle is up to date.?
2.2 –>> 3.3 on a talisman 2017 how??
Do you know how to activate R-sound?
I have a 2016 Renault Megane with R-Link 2 with sw version 2.2.19.300. Recently I updated my phone (Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S) with OTA update to Android Pie. And now the car’s Bluetooth loudspeaker does interesting things:
– the icon of the phone on the screen stays red after connecting, but the BT loudspeaker fortunately works,
– I cannot start a call from the car’s screen because it says “No signal strength”,
-and the most annoying problem: after finishing the call, the number and name of the other party stucks on the cockpit screen, it doesn’t disappear.
Before that I didn’t have these issues so I think there is some compatibility problem with the new Android version.
Does somebody have the same problems?
I have an 2016 Renault Talisman with R-Link 2 with sw version 2.2.19.300 and am experiencing the same problem with my Android One phone (Nokia 8.1). No signal strength.
Did you find a solution for this problem?
Could someone confirm that euronews and mail applications don’t work anymore?
yeppa, euronews doesnt works on my rlink since 30? september anymore..
Hello,
My Mégane GT 205 Hatchback(R-link2, 2.2.19.300) is imported from Germany. Can anyone tell me how to adjust the German push messages to Dutch? Systemlanguage is Dutch, car is connected to Dutch R-Linkstore, but push messages keep popping up in German.
hi! i have a megane 4 with version 2.2.15.703 and on the renault site it says that i have no update ‘can i make the switch to 2.2.19.300?
Hi All
I found this on the internet which seems to solve Android Auto for us who are stuck on 2.2.19.300: http://www.forumkadjar.it/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4543&sid=5ba195c74598c3ac4481680c6660a85f&start=180
Have someone with 2.2.19.300 tried this? I have Talisman from 2016 with 8.7″ screen (if that matters…) and very curious if someone got it working. In the forum, when I translated, I can see it was succesful but it’s an italian Kadjar forum…
Actually it works fine with Talisman! I can strongly recomend the upgrade! The display becomes much more responsive too 🙂
Hi Mario, what is your experience after two weeks of the upgrade? All good? No issue? I have Megane 2016.11 with r-link 2 with 2.2.19.300 and would like to have phone mirroring feature.
After last update to 3.3.961 the exterior temperature goes crazy, wrong values all the time.
I have an Espace 2015, software 2.2.19.300, navigation 9.12.80.689874 mappackage 2017_12. I assume I upgraded to latest possibile versions lat october/november.
Since then voic recognition and findind the address, and only that, is not working. WHen I search for a street name it returns me something like “no data available”, and screen menu avaiuoable only to go back. All other voice activated funtion work well. I found the problem with any address, any city I looke. Any idea?
Second question: can I install branch 3.X software on my Espace?
Hello enrico,
how did you upgrade to 2.2.19.300 in 2015 Espace, or was it in the car originally?
Ok. Information to all that have soft 2.2 on their r-link 2. It is possible to upgrade your system to branch 3.3 with Android auto (car play still doesn’t work). I did that last evening. It’s very easy. Here you have a description of the method. It’s in Spanish but google translate does the job. I done it on Megane but as I understand it should be good for all cars with r-link 2. Enjoy 🙂 I am from Warsaw Poland if any you needed help.
http://www.foroclub.es/megane4/viewtopic.php?f=420&t=20311
EDIT Admin: I do not recommend this method.
is there any chance to update from branch 3 to branch8? i don think that car on paris motorshow had new hardware to ran build 8.
i there any place to download it?”:)
Also would like to do this for full screen carplay
I have a Talisman which was bought in 2016. I use to have Windows phone which connected without any problem. In October 2018, I changed the phone to a Samsung A3. The R-link does not manage to connect. I contacted my Renault dealer but the tell me Renault does not allow to upgrade the software. For 3 months now, I cannot use the phone in the car. : – (
Hi does anyone know if you can upgrade Rlink 2 software from 7.0. to 8.0. I have 2018 Scenic.
I heard yesterday that Renault will be coming with a big update for R-Link with the 2.2… Branch – Updating it to 7.0.24.xxx. To fix the many problems there are with the 2.2. Units … Might just be a rumour, but heard it from someone close to Renault.
Hi John, can not wait for it…. I hope it will release very soon
There’s an official update from 2.2.19. to 3.3.16.960 via myrenault/toolbox2 software. Downloading it at the moment. My Rlink2 current version is 2.2.19.200 by the way.
Do you have print screen? I’ve never heard about this update 😃
Yes, I have
Hello Rafal,
please could you offer a link to your downloaded files? Last tuesday several times I started to download, but it gave me all times an error. I would like to compare your files with the one from the former 3.3.16.960 updated for cars, which was already equipped with a 3.3 version.
Best regards Dirk
Hi Admin, Rafal is right. Just checked with r-link tool and 3.3.16.960 – 1171MB is available to download. Have a screenshot as well.
Hi László,
I have tried to download it via R-Link 2 Toolbox to my USB key, but its writing “failure” for me. Did You succeed ?
Hi Tamas, unfortunately not able to download. Says: “error” and it is not starting the download process. Maybe the demand is high and server not able to serve us 🙂 let see tomorrow.
Hello,
Is there any update from 7.x to 8.x?
It seems R-Link Store service not available. Maybe new updates will come? 🙂
2 Hours ago, by myRenaut was shown two Versions 2.2.19.300 and 3.3.16.960 for my Rlink2. After a phone with Service Hotline, they told that the latest version for my RL is 2.2 . My question was , why is both shown , wasn’t realy answered . Car was build in late 2017. My request was for carplay adaption. Answer was, isn’t possible because missing hardware? Now 2 hours later the Version 3. , as possible version, wasn’t shown via MyRenault.
So my personal opinion is, maybee that new hardware was delivered and build in, but via car configuration 2.2 Software Version was implemented and the function are killed.
Did somebody know which hardware version / starting by serialnumber or versionnumber ist needed for carplay/mirror adaption?
3.3.16.960 disappeared from toolbox and not available to download. I presume this was just some bug in the vehicle categorization. We still have to wait and hope 🙂
Hi,
I’ve got 2016 Talisman with R-Link 2.2.16.814. When I follow instructions and enter my VIN number the official website says that there are no updates. I installed the R- Link 2 Toolbox and it gave me a list of things that needed updating – which I did in hope that the system would be one of the things that will get the update. Unfortunately, my R Link remains 2.2.16.814 after installing all recommended apps and pieces of software (push services, profiles etc). I’ve run out of ideas.
Can anyone help?
Could you please update your table to add boot release version ?
Thanks & Regards
Hi guys,

Hello all,
My Espace Mai 2015 has problem with gps which is out of order after an rlink upgrade. A noticed (within this site) that the upgrade was done in a improper way, and it must have ended with – damaged integrity message. The upgrade itself was done in following way: I got from RLINK support team, upgrade pack which should bring the rlink from relese 1.4.15.904 to 2.2.19.300 , but now I know (rlink support team knows now as well) that it can’t be upgraded by usb approach on release below 2.2.15.703. The Renault garage can’t find solution to repair it in the past two weeks, and I starting to question if it can be repaired at all. Does anyone has experience with this problem?
Hello Piotr
my problem is the same. Did you fix the damage integrity?
New versión RLINK2 3.3.96.980. Do you have information about this new versión?
I have installed the version 3….981 you have a change log for this version?
tried to install 3.x.x.980 both via download+kopie to sd and via de toolbox (myrenault shows mandatory), but nothing happens when I insert de SD card in the car (interacts with sd, says no media files, and no more). Any idea?
Do you have inserted any other SD card or USB ?? If yes, please, remove them and use the USB with new maps versión ONLY, until finish installation. Installatino is about 30 minutes
Yesterday got an upgrade from 2.2.19.300 to 7.0.24.166.
So far so…good!
How dude ?
Had an issue with map update: generate usb pen on car, put on rlink toolbox, got files transfered to usb pen, put pen on car rlink, update done, and it’s always requesting the installation of same map update. Didn’t update map software info on my rensult account. Reported this to rlink support and got free rlink software update on official renault services Still have software subscription valid till 01/2020.
I have exactly the same error on mine at the moment, just waiting for RLink to investigate and provide a solution other than visit the dealer!
New update available 3.3.16.98X
New functionalities of version 16.980
-Enhance the stability of the system

hi where i can download the last one ? “New update available 3.3.16.98X”
and how i install it ?
i have renault megane grand coupe 2017
thanks
You need a Myrenault account, and RLink 2 Toolbox installed in your computer. Check the RLink2 section of this web to do it.
Hello,
Can somebody please tell me why everytime I chose which Multi-Sense profile to use, the car will always start from the “Neutral” profile at every start up? It does not matter what profile I choose (Eco, Comfort, Personal) the car will ALWAYS start from the “Neutral” one.
The software version on my car is the 8.0.32.306.
Thanks
Hello, It seems that it is normal with the v8 version when I talk with Renault about that. Bad surprise for me. If you are not happy don’t hesitate to contact Renault.
Try choose another mode as favorite in setup!
Maybe!!!!
There is a new version 9.0.33.436 boot 5624 just released recently.
Yes, I’ve to update the page 😉
Thanks !
i have version 2.2.16.814…
can i update to 2.2.19.300 ? in the website, it says no update available…but i have downloaded from oficial link the 19.300 version.
Hello, as it is said on the website, you can’t do it yourselve, you have to go to your dealer. 😉
but 2.2.16 is not mencioned anywhere….
Yes it is strange, it is why I highly recommend you to go to your dealer to ask for an update 😉
ok thanks.
even more strange…on my renault it says that i have 3.3.16.980 instaled…what the hell…
Check directly on the car , it is the best way to know what you have ☺️
I’m currently on software 7.0.24.166 installed by Renault Garage as my previous version 2.2.18.520 wouldn’t allow me to update.
My only issue is, since this update – my GB R Link Store isn’t showing any TomTom Traffic subscriptions to buy anywhere, If I view my previous purchased of it that are expired and follow the purchase link, I get the notification that “This item cannot be purchased”.. is anyone else having the same?
I made update (on Renault Garage) on RLINK2, from 2.2.19.300 to 7.0.24.166 and radar information stopped working properly.
Radar alter on ly appears, or when I goind side to side from the radar place, or doesn’t appear. The radar alert, starting 900m before I arrive to radar place stopped working. Had contact RLINK2 support and I’m waiting, for almost 1 month, to get this solved.
Apart from this, this new (to me) version 7 is great.
Hi Corsa
I have a Megane 2016 with r link 2 version 2.2.19.300 and when I asked my Renault garage they said there isn’t anyway to update it. I have hope seeing your message as you said you are now on version 7!
Was this in the uk? How did you get them to do it? 🙂
Thank you in advance.
I’ve visited dealer for update from 2.2.19.300 to 7.0.24.166… and they couldn’t update it.
They say they’ve contacted the renault itself which have said that the Rlink2 device is to old to update to v7.
Megane IV 02/2016
My Megane is from 01/2017, so they’ve done the update.
If u already have 2.2.19.300 version maybe u already have same RLINK2 as I have… maybe…
Today, I managed to do the update on my Rlink 2 Scenic 2017. Important: bluetooth devices away from car. Remove any other media, like other sd cards or usb sticks. Remove all old rlink files from your update media. If you don’t do the above you get the error: no mediafiles found. The update is tedious, often restarting, sometimes looking like it’s hanging, and in the middle of the process a black screen. Normal it seems. After +-1 hour all is finished. Went from original
Hi – I got my new R-link radio installed on 13.August – Its a Gen2.1, and they installed 7.0.24.131 on it … my previous R-link 2, had 2.2.19.300 … Just wanted to let you know that 7.0.24.131 exists, as you dont have it on you list above with the other 7.0.24.xxx
Thanks, I’ve updated the page 😉
I live in another country.
That’s why you can’t download it to the vehicle number.
Is there anyone who can share the firmware?
8.0.32.5XX
Hi – It seems that, at this Italian site they are updating R-Link 2 to v8.XX with this guide – I have not tested it.

I see in your table above, that the column “Update software yourself?”, for the the version 7.24.16x, reports “—“. What it means?
I can go ahead updating myself or not?
thanks

Hi team,
It’s safe to upgrade from 7.x to 8.x using this link

Hi I’m having difficulty understanding which version my 2017 Koleos has. The R-Link 2 in the car says 3.3.15.402. However when I go to manage products in the rlink store site it tells that 3.3.16.980 is installed. How do i know which one is correct
If i put my VIN number into Renault Easy Connect it says there are no updates for my R-Link 2 system
Thanks
Just one more Story about Update in the Renault Service Center. I have manually installed latest 2.2.19.300. Now they tried to install version 7.x or 8.x and totally damaged the hole system. My Espace is in service now over a week and got a message from Renault, that there is actually no solution for it. A new RLink 2 Radio / System seems not to be an option at the moment. So there are actually more problems around the world.
Regards
Thorsten
Thorsten I had this update made on my Megane IV, from 2.2.19.300 to 7.0.24.166 and it works almost fone (speed cameras warning are not orking since that update, but apart from this is ok

Just got a new r-link2 unit with version 9.0.34.611 🙂
Hello. Is it safe to upgrade your software from 7.0.24.166 to 8.0. Soft start version 5476. Thanks.
AWG
how will u do that upgrade from 7.0.24.166 to 8.0?
Not via Rlink2 Toolbox for sure right?
No. The Toolbox Rlink2 does not have this update. The Toolbox Rlink2 has only map updates.
Hello,
I’ve got a big problem, last week I buyed a Kadjar 2015 with rlink version 2.2.11.803 and my samsung s7 edge dont connect, in Renault tell me that I’ve to replace de radio 700 €¡¡¡
And I’m not be able to find a solution.
Any help? please???
Alvaro
they have to upgrade it to version 2.2.19.300 or even better: to version 7.0.24.166 (this upgrade has to be done on local dealer service)
No, from Renault Connect Spain answer to me and my Renault dealer service, that the versión 2.2.11.803 isn’t to be able upgrade.
Unique solution it’s change the r-link. I don’t understand anything
Great discussion!
Just got a new r-link2 unit with version 9.0.34.611 🙂 non funziona bluetooth
Android 10 not working correctly, bluetooth during calls connect/disconnect. Talisman 2016, 2.2.15.703 software version
Dealrship service told me that they don’t want to update software because some functionalities could stop working (sensors, camera…). Any idea how to solve it?
Does anyone know why there is no upgrade from 7.0.x to 8.x or 9.x?
I have Koleos ||
Anyone tried to upgrade from 7.0.24.166 to 8.x ? with files from here: https://mega.nz/folder/6ZNywAIb#PggWmvCYA4cu4r37P7zkWw/folder/WQ1gxIKa
Was not able to, but from 7.0.24.166 to 9.0.34.616 was possible and easy using the firmware on the site.
Is there any relation between Boot Release and R-Link 2 versions?
I got update of my R-Link 2 from 2.2.15.703 to 2.2.19.300 but now when I start the engine I have to wait up to 30 seconds for the R-Link 2 console to wake up and sometimes the map screen shows running circle for long time before showing the map. So now my R-Link 2 ver. is 2.2.19.300 but Boot Release is 4711.
Hello Tomas,
my R-LINK2 1.4.15.801.
Did you upgrade to 2.2.15.703, or was it originally in the car?
Hi! Today I have updated my Grand Scenic (2017) to 9.0.34.616 from https://mega.nz/folder/6ZNywAIb#PggWmvCYA4cu4r37P7zkWw/folder/WQ1gxIKa .

is there any possibility to get to 2.2. Or 7.0.?
I have got an espace initiale paris from 2015 with rlink2, if necessary.
Thanks in advance
Hi Gerhard!
My problem is the same. Did you upgrade 1.4.15.904 softver?
Hi, I have Koleos 2018 , Rlink2 Version 3.3.16.986 with boot version 5376 , is possible update to the Version 7. in Renault dealer service ? or first I have to update the boot version to 5615 ?? Thanks
Hi, update my Koleos 2018 to version 7.0.24.166 in the dealer this year.
Hi Pedro, finally the official distributor was could update to 7.0.24.166 with 5615 boot too, is it possible to update to v 8 or 9 ?
Another thing, how do I know the hardware version of rlink2 I have?
Please help me , thanks .

I have a Talisman 2016. Due to some problems with the radio the Renault service has replaced the complete R-Link 2 Radio. Now when I check the SW version I see is 9.0.34.61 isntalled. From what I’ve read this version has Full screen for Android Auto and Carplay but I can’t find the option on the screen. Does anyone know why? Do I need to do something special? Only thing that works is Syri. When I go to seetings on the screen I can’t see the “smartphone mirrorring” button. How do I fix this? Is there a way to show it?
I’ve now the same version on my Koleos, I just connect the phone to the USB for smart mirroring and the same works in full screen without any change. Are you connecting with bluetooth ? are you sure carplay is enabled on your phone and the phone is unlocked?
Hello Pedro,
did you update the software? Mine is 1.4.15.801.
You wrote 3 years ago
Megane 4 production Jan 2017. I had 7.0. Yesterday I was able to upgrade 7.0.16 to 9.0.34. There was a short “Check Engine” warning during the update, but it disappeared after I restarted the car. All functions seems to be working fine, much smoother than 7.0. Android Auto is working as well (I had to enable it through DDT4ALL).
A warning for those who will enable Android Auto through DDT4ALL. There are several versions of the configuration pages. Most won’t work for your car. If you open a configuration page and see “NO DATA” on the right side, DO NOT CHANGE VALUES. If you click on the Read All and no data appears, DO NOT PROCEED. You will break something. Try other versions of the “RadNav” configuration pages.
What version of the loader do you have?
Hello Ivan,
How did you manage to update from 7.xxx to 9.xxx? I have 8.0.32.5xxx and automatic update is not offering this option. Beside this, when I bought my Megane 4 in 2019, the deal was that for 3 years Renault will provide 2 map updates/year. It seems that this year there will be only one…
With respect !!!
Hi Marko, my name is Jorge Lopez I have a Renault Koleos and I install the same version :(, many funtion of my radio, air-condition and other funtions not working, you can resolved the problem? if you solved it, could you explam me how can resolve?, Thanks
Jorge Lopez if you have these problems following an wrong upgrade there you are lucky at least because the unit wake up. what remains you is to change only the unit with another one new.
There are few more versions of firmwares:
9.0.35.500
9.0.37.210
Beste een vraagje. Mijn rlink2 systeem van mijn talisman uit 2018 gaat steeds op zwart radio blijft doorspelen.
