I know (basically) what CAN-BUS is, but I don't know anything about the Resler interface. If you simply want to change the language on the vehicle, why not talk to the dealer and have them reset it using their factory tool? I don't understand why you would want to do it from scratch, but then this isn't "hack the can bus" on yahoo groups, available here (note the lack of posts since the group was founded):

Don't know if the link will help, but it leads to a lot of similar info:

He is attempting to send a series of commands via the iBUS to re-code the cars default language settings. In a car without CD multi-changer the obvious place for the iBUS is the cd cable. Other alternatives would be the cable connector to the Nav computer or the TV module. Check the wiring diagram on this site to figure out which pin is +ive, ground and iBUS.
